What a wonderful lady whose smile was contageous ! I have so many fond memories of Mrs. Lorenz, from Stara Basn to Girl Guides, Szare Szeregi, to chats after mass at Holy Ghost church whenever I visited Winnipeg. I treasure an angel she gave to me, I hang it on my Christmas tree every year. May she rest in peace. My sincere condolences to the whole family.
