She was a fighter and an inspiration to everyone she came in contact with. But more than anything, our mother was dedicated and devoted to her family and extended family. We were her focus and identity. She never, ever let us down and what a wonderful lasting example and legacy. The family would like to thank the staff at St. Boniface Hospital Emergency and Ward B5, who were, without exception, helpful and supportive.
