Granddaughter Karen (Brian) Grandson Jason (Beth) Alyssa, Kyle Sisters Violet Cvitkovitch and Jean Devlin; sister-in-law Jean Schnerch, Nell Shewchuk, brother-in-law Stanley Shewchuk, and many nieces and nephews and friends.
Mom & Dad worked up North in the fishing camps where Mom did the cooking for the guys.
That’s where her love for cooking and baking started. To this day she was well known for her many,
many dishes. Try to get a recipe from her!!!! Cream chicken was (our) most favourite.
After a number of years at home raising her children, mom went to work at Camp Arnes as Head Cook.
A job that she fulfilled her talents, interests and values to her hard work, which she loved.
She loved to bake and that is where her love of decorating cakes and wedding cakes started.
Every weekend she would show up with a container of fresh homemade cookies, you never knew what you were getting. Gingersnaps, Butter horns, Chocolate Chip, or a Coffee cake! She also had other hobbies, crochet-dollies, knitting, cross-stitching, gardening, even yard sailing.
Mom belonged to the New Horizons Club for many years, enjoying their Bingos, Perogie making and helping with their fundraising. She cherished all the friendships she made there. Mom lived at the Waterfront Centre for the last 20 years, enjoying conversation with the residents at coffee
every morning either inside or outside in the sunshine. She had nothing but good words for all the wonderful staff.
She loved to watch her Grandchildren Ukrainian Dance, she never missed a concert or performance.
She was always there to help with the fundraising in any way she could.
Mom enjoyed being around her Great-grandchildren, whom always put a smile on her face.
Calling her Baba-Baba, sitting on her knee, or just watching them play! She cherished every moment with them. Her heart was most happy when she was with family and many family gatherings.
We cherish all our memories and times spent together.
Your memory is our keepsake with which we’ll never part
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our Hearts.
