KATHERINE ROMANIW Peacefully Katherine Romaniw passed away at the Deer Lodge Centre on Sunday, June 15, 2003. She was born in the County of Lwow, Ukraine on September 26, 1929. She left the Ukraine with the help of her sister, Stefania, and immigrated to Canada. Soon after arriving in Canada, she met and married Harry Romaniw and had two sons, Walter and Roman. She then started a new life on her own as a seamstress working for several sewing factories. She met Stanley Abramowicz and they had a daughter Barbara.

She was predeceased by mother Anna (Liwacz) father Michael Chomiszak and sister Stefania Feszczak. Special thanks to Holy Family staff on the St. Johns ward for their wonderful care and compassion during her residence at Holy Family.
