SOILE MARJATTA BOYER
(née ILKKALA)
April 11, 1957 – December 13, 2024
Soile Ilkkala passed away peacefully on December 13th 2024 at the Bethesda Hospital.
Born Soile Marjatta Ilkkala on April 11th 1957, Soile was a mother and grandmother who loved to read, dance, garden and beading, who also travelled while living in her native Finland.
She personified the concept of Finnish sisu throughout her life and her adventurous spirit led her to immigrate to Québec with her children, as well as to move to Manitoba, where she lived out her life.
She will be greatly missed by family and friends.
Soile’s family kindly requests that all of her friends and relatives take a few minutes to honour her memory by sharing photos, memories, and stories, using the comment section on this page.

Translation of Erkka for MB family: He still has a hat in his car, that Soile sewed the ornaments on, on a sunny summer day in Rauma. The hat's seen better days, but it's been well over 40 years. Thanks to Soile and may she rest in peace.

Mulla on yhä auton hattuhyllyllä hattu johon Soile ompeli koristeet, eräänä kauniina kesäpäivänä Aarningonkadun pihalla Raumalla. Hattu on sittemmin hieman auringossa virttynyt, onhan aikaa kulunut yli 40 vuotta. Kiitokset Soilelle ja lepää rauhassa.

I hope sharing a link works, because this was one of mom's favourite songs 🥹 https://youtu.be/pATX-lV0VFk?si=TiHgetR81WO1QnJE
