Erika and Gerhard immigrated to Canada September 20, 1961 after a transatlantic voyage on a Greek ship for 10 days. They travelled to Toronto by train and settled there to begin their life in Canada, with their young daughter Sabine. Erika started working as a seamstress at the CNIB. She moved on to kitchen work at East-York Hospital and eventually became a key punch operator at OHIP for many years. They would have several moves, to Alberta and Germany, before settling back in Toronto. Erika and Gerhard had a motorhome and enjoyed exploring on many vacations. Erika enjoyed needlework, knitting and crochet, sewing, cooking, crosswords and puzzles. She most especially enjoyed spending time with her family and was a very proud Oma.
A Celebration of Life will be held when the family is able to gather together. Cremation has taken place.
