She was born June 17, 1953 in Manila, Philippines to Leonida and Dionisio Miranda Sr. and lived in Philippines before moving to Winnipeg in December 1996.

She also loved spending time with family and closest friends. We are thankful for the time we were able to share with her. She will be greatly missed and will forever be in our hearts. We would like to thank all the doctors and nurses in St. James Palliative Care for their compassionate care they had given our mother.
