She was a long time member of St. Hedwig's Roman Catholic Church and the C.W. L. Ann held several jobs in Brandon, one of which was at Fairview Home where she had resided for the past two years. Nana lived life to the fullest, devoted herself to her family and always had a special place in her heart for her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Her passions in life included gardening, looking after her pets, playing cards, spending time with her family and many friends, baking and cooking. Nana passed on Ukrainian traditions to her family, in particular, her special dishes. She was a very energetic and hard working woman who independently maintained her home and yard for many years.
