MARY SUDOSKI (nee BUSCH) It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of our mom, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, on July 11, 2014 with all her family by her side. Mom was predeceased by her parents, husband Nick, her brothers Alec, Jack and Harold, her sisters, Elsie, Tillie and Freda, and her nephew Blair. She will be lovingly remembered by her beloved daughters Bonny (Ron) and Robyn (Paul, cherished grandchildren Brenden and Jorden), her sister Margaret, numerous nieces, nephews and friends, especially her dearest friend Cecile (Roy and family). She also leaves behind her furry and feathered grandbabies, Jewel, Lucas, Noah, Otis and Jo. Mom was a strong, remarkable woman who was selfless, genuine and always there for whomever needed her. A lot of people spoke of her as like having another mother or grandmother. Mom didn't always have it easy, but she strived to make a better life for herself and her daughters. Brenden and Jorden were "Grams" pride and joy and she wanted so much to see them grow up into young men and thankfully she got her wish. Mom loved to travel and especially loved that she got to experience the adventures with her grandsons which made the trips all the more special. Mom also loved going for long rides to the Whiteshell, Gimli and Grand Beach and as well, was always willing to try new food experiences. She loved her family and loved when we were all together. In the early years, her favourite thing was hosting Christmas Eve dinners and trying to fit as many people as she could, whether it be family or friends, into her tiny home. The more that came over, the happier she was. We all looked forward to her famous ham on those evenings, that only she could perfect and oh how we ate and laughed. Mom often reflected on those days. Mom is now in the arms of the angels and reunited with her loved ones. With sincere gratitude the family wishes to acknowledge the many years of care and support provided by Dr. W. Van Horne and Cathy Mariani, Dr. P. Harris and Dr. Sherine Guindy. Finally to the doctors and nurses at Victoria General Hospital, we are grateful for your kind, caring and compassionate efforts in making Mom as comfortable as possible during her short stay. In keeping with Mom's wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, if you want to honour our Mom, please do something that makes you smile and warms your heart. And if you still have a Mom, give her a hug and if you don't then hug someone that is an important part of your life. She would love that. With broken hearts we say good-bye, until we meet again. We'll miss you and love you forever.
