Mom has also left behind her brothers and sisters, Irene, Victor, Eddie, Alice, John and many nieces and nephews. Mom was born in 1923 in Cloverleaf, MB the sixth of 11 children. She was raised on the family farm, met and eventually married Tony in 1940. They spent a short time on the family farm and then moved to Winnipeg. Mom worked at a variety of jobs while raising her family. Mom cherished and cared not only for her own family but opened her heart to many others. She will be fondly remembered for her Sunday spaghetti dinners, baking, knitting and crocheting. We will always remember her for her great sense of humour and spontaneous laughter.
