KAREN EVA OSTROWSKI
(nee BALLIET)
January 6, 1957 - April 8, 2020
Loving wife and mother, sister and grandmother, she was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba on January 6, 1957 to Miriam and Edward Balliet and was married to Les Ostrowski in 1975.
Karen will be forever remembered by her husband and best friend Les; her son Andy (Stacey) Ostrowski; by her brothers, Ed (Dawn) Balliet, Dave Balliet and her granddaughter Hollie Ostrowski; step- grandchildren, Richael, Makenzie, Deacon and sister-in-law Anne Kuzminski.
Karen had a vast array of talents; she loved gardening, crocheting and needlework where she created endless beautiful pictures. She loved music and cheering on the Winnipeg Jets. Above everything else, Karen loved being with her granddaughter Hollie where they would spend countless hours talking and crafting together.
Les was the love of her life, Andy was her treasure and Hollie was her gift in life. She will always be remembered for her kindness and devout love for her family.
Cremation has taken place and as per Karen's wishes, no formal ceremony will be held.

I worked with Karen in Payroll Services at Lifetouch Canada. A graceful lady with an open mind and a caring heart. My fun memory of her is when she and Les were at a furniture sale. They we in line in the weeee hours. There was a dining room suite they wanted. She was so excited talking about their successful adventure. Rest in Peace Karen. Thoughts and prayers for your loved ones left behind. Jan (Thompson) Taylor - Posted by: Jan (Co-worker at Lifetouch) on: Apr 19, 2020
