She loved playing cards, reading, gardening, crocheting, going to the park, cooking, baking buns and perogy making days.
Special trips over the years included to Branson with Ralph and Evelyn, to Boston with Vic and Randy, to Winnipeg and Deadwood with Rose and to Minneapolis with Marlene.

She kept very detailed daily records on calendars.  In her “Date Book” she recorded family and community birthdays, anniversaries, births and deaths - - it will always be a family treasure.
She will be dearly missed by her family and friends.  It’s Vic’s turn to have her back now!
