She was a member of St. Thomas Anglican Church and enjoyed spending time with friends doing crafts and ceramics. Her main passion though was spending her summers at the cabin at Laclu, ON. It was her home away from home. She would spend every summer there from May until October and never wanted to leave. Many thanks to the staff at Middlechurch Home for their care. With respect to Vina's wishes, there will be no formal service. A private family graveside service will be held at Brookside Cemetery.
