We give our sincere thanks to the doctors, nurses and aides under the Palliative Care Program. During Mom's final weeks at home, they provided us with much needed support, compassion and understanding. Also, thank you to all the staff on Unit 5 at Seven Oaks Hospital for your care and support. We wish to thank Father Bohdan Lukie for his comforting presence while faithfully visiting Mom.

I remember my grandmother as the sweetest lady. Greatest cook ever...don't tell my mom. She was loving, devoted, and in general a happy woman to be around. I will miss her and fondly remember the times I had with her. - Posted by: Tyler Brezden (Grandson) on: Feb 08, 2013

My first memory of Mrs. Brezden - she will always be Mrs. Brezden - was her quiet strength - and, of course, I was scared of her! We were 10 - over 40 years ago - and it was one of those magical warm spring evenings following a Winnipeg winter - the late sixties - and she was trying to get little 'Marky' to sleep. Brent and I were playing outside and making too much noise - as we so often did - she told us to "be quiet". We listened! Mrs. Brezden, we will miss you. - Posted by: Cecil Lyon (Friend) on: Jan 29, 2010
