After the war, she lived in England and immigrated to Winnipeg in 1949, where she met her beloved husband, Henry.

She is lovingly remembered by her son Jerry (Dusanka); grandchildren, Warren, Michelle (John), Stephanie (Kevin), and Lindsay (Wes); great-grandchildren, Lincoln, Cooper, and Casey; her brother Kasmir (Odette). She was predeceased by her husband Henry, her son Ted, daughter-in-law Eleanor, and many beloved family members.
