Elizabeth Katherine Issak
October 31, 1962 - February 23, 2026
Elizabeth Isaak passed away peacefully on February 23, 2026, after a courageous battle with lung cancer.
She was born on October 31, 1962, with a gentle spirit and a life that would include many physical
challenges. Liz is now free from the limitations her body placed on her ability to walk, speak, and learn. We take comfort in knowing she is whole and unburdened, able to run freely in heaven without the need for a
wheelchair.
Despite the obstacles she faced, Liz graduated from school, worked for several years, and learned to communicate using her computer. Her determination and quiet perseverance were an inspiration to those who knew her. Everyone who knew Liz loved her and was touched by her joyful, loving nature.
She leaves behind her devoted and loving mother and primary caregiver, Sonja Isaak; her sisters, Cindy (Yardley Ploegman) and Barb (Paul Galessiere); her niece, Aleah (Aaron Unger); her nephew, Daniel; and many supportive friends. We are especially grateful for the love and compassionate care shown by the staff at Calvary Place PCH.
Liz was predeceased by her father, Arthur Isaak, and her beloved aunt Elsie. She will be remembered for her
sweet innocence, her remarkable precision in remembering significant dates, her wonderful sense of humor,
and her love of all things orange and pumpkin - a fitting tribute to her October 31 birthday.
“Praise the Lord, my soul; all my innermost being, praise His holy name.”
Psalm 103:1.
A celebration of Liz’s Life will be held at Springs Church, 725 Lagimodiere Blvd., Winnipeg, Manitoba, at 12 noon on March 7, 2026. Pastor Jeff Romas will officiate. Interment will be held at Glen Lawn Memorial Gardens.
In lieu of flowers, charitable donations may be made to the Springs Church “Build the Future” new building campaign.
