Obituary

We are sad to announce beloved wife and mother Maria Del Carmen passed away suddenly on Friday, August 13th, 2021, at her home in Blumenort. She leaves to mourn her: husband James Haslam, son Ken and wife Jenn, children Chantelle (Christian, Dimitri), Devin; son Rob and wife Janet, children Therone, Morgan; daughter Karen and partner Dick, her children Cody, Betty; and daughter Cheryl and husband Darcy, children Nick, Alex, Keisha and Kieran. She also leaves to mourn four siblings Nick DelAuga and wife Gloria and their children; Andy DelAuga and wife Marylou and their children; Soraya DelAuga, Clive DelAuga.

Our mom was born on July 16th, 1953, to Nicholas and Carmen DelAuga in Gibraltar, UK. She grew up in Gibraltar and married James on July 8th, 1972, in The Church of the Sacred Heart and celebrated 49 years of marriage this year. They had two sons and a daughter before they immigrated to Canada in October of 1977. James and Maria moved to Winnipeg to join her brother in Canada and had another daughter to complete their family.

Mom was so proud of her children and grandchildren, always having photos of them so she could tell everyone she meets about them. She was an outgoing and friendly person that had a great sense of humor, was honest, you could always count her to speak her mind. Maria loved good recipes, Spanish music, and her family. She faced many health issues and as a two-time cancer survivor she showed her strength and resilience.

She will be deeply missed by her families and friends.

A private family service has been planned.
