She is also survived by her brothers, Louis of Winnipeg, John, Adam and Carl of Toronto, along with five grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews.

Rose & Harry were always one of our stops on our daily walks. It was a true pleasure to admire their meticulous home and yard. The flowers always made you reflect on their beauty and the care that was bestowed upon them. We listened to their life's story and could feel their love for each other and their life they had built together. Family was their joy and were glad to share their pride in their family. Vichnya Pamyat. - Posted by: STEPHEN SUMKA (Neighbour) on: Aug 01, 2015
