She was predeceased by her beloved husband Lou; parents, John and Anne Buchko; and sisters, Anne, Olga and Katherine (Kay). Left to cherish her memory is her devoted sister Tina Liska. She will also be lovingly remembered by her nephews, Max, Tim, George and John; nieces, Maryanne, Joyce and Janice; and their families. Mary was born and resided in Winnipeg her entire life. She was a longtime member of Holy Eucharist Parish. Mary lived her life by always serving others. She was a devoted and loving wife to Lou whom she loved with all her heart. She was also a devoted daughter and sister. She cared for her nieces and nephews as if they were her own. Everyone that met Mary was touched by her gentle nature and kind heart. Special thanks is extended to the 3rd floor nursing staff at Holy Family Nursing Home, especially these last few months when Mary desperately missed her sister Kay. Your understanding, compassion and care has been comforting to her family and is deeply appreciated.
