ANN LASOTA (REFCHUK) October 29, 1921 November 23, 2008 Peacefully, on November 23, 2008, Ann passed away at Seven Oaks Hospital. Ann was predeceased by parents Katherine and Michael Refchuk, siblings Stephanie, Victoria, Bernard, and Rudolph, and husband Michael.

Ann was born and lived her life in Winnipeg, Manitoba, working as a caterer and candy maker. After the passing of her husband Michael, Ann lived independently in her home until age 86. Ann's last year brought new and wonderful people into her life, and one cannot give enough praise and thanks to the great staff at Middlechurch Home, who treated Ann with kindness, care and respect. Special thanks are due to the compassionate and caring staff at Seven Oaks Hospital, and to her wonderful friends and neighbours for the support and kindness they gave Ann through her long illness. Cremation has taken place per Ann's wishes.
