She fled the Russian army as a child, left Germany to arrive in Canada at age 19, and worked at the Civic Hospital for many years. She forged her own path in life, and learned to truly laugh, overcoming many personal challenges. She loved to swim, and until recently, swam every week. She always said "I am rich," and she was: rich in experience, and love, and friendships. She will be missed by everyone who was fortunate enough to meet her.<br><br>There will be a funeral service held on Friday, January 4 at 10 a.m. at Bethel Pentecostal Church, 500 Viewmount Drive, Ottawa followed by a reception. Private interment at Pinecrest Cemetery.<br></div>
