Victoria was born in Sarto, MB. on April 2, 1927, and lived most of her adult life in St. Martin, MB. where her and her husband Mike had a farm and raised their family. She was a proud hard-working lady who had amazing strength and determination. Her energy frequently seemed to have no end. She was very proud of her Ukrainian heritage; she was a dedicated homemaker and a fabulous cook and baker with her specialties being perogies and cabbage rolls.  No one ever left her place hungry! She always loved to have fun whether it was getting together with her siblings, travelling, enjoying a shot of whiskey, dancing a polka at a gathering, playing bingo, knitting, or gardening.

Many thanks to the wonderful staff at Tuxedo Villa Personal Care Home (Unit 1) for the great care they provided to Victoria. We’re especially grateful to the friends and family that kept in touch with her these last few years. She loved the cards and the visits.
