ZOFIA JOHNS
(nee EWERT-KRZEMIENIEWSKI)

It is with great sadness that the Johns and Ewert families announce the sudden passing of Zofia ("Fia") on Wednesday, December 11, 2019, at the age of 72 years.
Born in war-torn Europe and subsequently raised in Winnipeg, her early years after graduation from the University of Manitoba were spent as an elementary school and music teacher in Ontario. After marriage, she became a world traveller and spent many years abroad on various adventures. She was also a lifelong learner pursuing additional university degrees and learning and teaching languages.
Zofia was known for her big heart and was always helping those in need such as the homeless and refugees. After leaving retirement to work at The Bay, she won rave revues for her extraordinary customer service, even learning sign language so she could better serve clients.
Her greatest wish was to have a large family to share meals and laughs. Zofia will be lovingly remembered by her husband of 50 years, Robert, and their two children and their spouses, Robin (Agata) and Marcus (Crystal); five grandchildren, Maria, Max, Natascha, Karl and Lilly; and her brother George. Zofia will also be forever remembered by her numerous nieces, nephews and extended family and dear friends around the world.
