In 1973, she and her husband immigrated to Canada with 4 out of 5 children. Their oldest daughter stayed behind, but many trips were made back and forth to see each other. She was a wonderful wife, mother, and grandmother. She loved to sew. She also devoted herself to her church leading Bible studies and service to her church family.
