FLORENTINE ZDAN 1920 - 2013 Passed on August 10, peacefully in the comforts of the Berwick Royal Oak in Victoria, BC. A specially heartfelt thank you to all the staff for the dedicated care of her during her stay. Additionally, a genuine thank you to Dr. A. Marsh whose compassionate personal attention allowed her to retain the independence and dignity she so valued. Born in Glencairn, MB as the third daughter in a family of five, Florence dedicated her life to the care and well being of her family. She married Joseph Zdan in 1947, a member of the Air Force, which led to many adventurous years as they were stationed around the world, while raising their daughter Debra. The family finally settled in Victoria, where Florence was an active member of the Grace & Peace Lutheran Churches. Her life and her undeniably caring spirit will be remembered by her daughter Debra, son-in-law Les Tait; her grandsons Steven (Kim) and Bryan; her great-grandchildren Eliot and Addison; her brother Wilf, and sisters Della and Louise (Vern); nephews Mark (Sheila), David (Jeanette); nieces Wendy (Peter), Diana (Stefan); as well as many other family members. Florence requested no formal service be held.
