Rowena Gwendolyn Dixon-Wiest
January 6, 1998 - March 19, 2020
Rowena passed away at the age of 22 in Yellowknife, NT where she was born and raised. She was the beloved daughter of Geoffrey Wiest and Penelope Dixon, and sister to Charlotte Dixon-Wiest. She will be sorely missed by her family and all who knew her.
Rowena was a gifted, passionate dancer and pianist, a role model and inspiration to other young artists. Always striving for excellence, and achieving it, she brought such beauty and artistry into this world and community. She was a music and dance teacher, member of COSY, twice represented the NT in the Alberta Provincial Music Festival, and was a regular participant in local performing arts events.
She was a kind and compassionate soul, whose gentle graciousness endeared her to many. A strong woman of faith, Rowena fearlessly battled lupus nephritis, growing daily in confidence, assurance, and passion for her God.
A private burial was held at Lakeview Cemetery in Yellowknife, officiated by Bishop Christopher Williams. A celebration of Rowena’s life will take place later this year.
Her family would like to thank in particular Dr. Shireen Mansouri, Dr. Shahin Moslehi, as well as Dr. Caleb De Putter and the amazing emergency department team at Stanton Hospital.
“I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.”
Psalm 118:17
