Our hearts and prayers go out to Zenia and Bohdan and their immediate families. I have such fond memories of playing in Pani Matwijiw's house as well as eating her delicious home cooked specialties,as a neighbor and friend on Noble Ave in Wpg. She was so generous and kind and had an amazingly witty sense of humour. Rest in peace, Pani Matwijiw. You will be sorely missed. Hugs to all. xox Karen - Posted by: Karen & Taras Luchak (Past neighbors on Noble Avenue) on: Jan 25, 2015
