KATHERINE ELAINE SULYMA
(nee WINIARZ)
She was predeceased by her husband Walter (2006); her parents, Jan (1973) and Katie (1965); her brothers, Frank, John, Walter, Stanley, Peter, Joseph; and sisters, Stella, Janet, Agnes and Mary. Left to cherish her memory are her children, Cliff (Analyn), Sandra (Raymond); grandchildren, Kathryn (Jeff), Derek, Khristine; great-grandchildren, Luke and Danella; and sister Adeline Babiak; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
Mom was born in Melrose, MB on November 20, 1930, and left for the city when she was 17. She met Walter in 1948, and after a six month romance, they were married on October 16, 1948. Together they enjoyed 58 years of marriage; raising a family, and travelling in the winter to Hawaii and California, which were their favourite destinations.
Mom began her career as a waitress at the Town and Country Restaurant and the CharterHouse Restaurant in the 50s and early 60s. In the mid 60s, she enrolled in Hotel Management at Red River Community College, and then worked at the Marion Hotel as assistant manager, and then hotel manager until the mid 80s. After a short retirement, she returned to work as coffee shop hostess at the CharterHouse Restaurant until the early 90s.
Mom enjoyed her retirement with Monday afternoon bowling at Rossmere Lanes, making perogies with the Catholic Women's League ladies at St. Alphonsus Church, and being part of a cribbage league at the East St. Paul Community Centre.
Our mom lived for her family, giving her many reasons to cook very special dinners for all of our birthdays and anniversaries. She was a loving, caring wife, mother, nana and great-nana who will be sadly missed.
The family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the health care professionals at the Riverview Health Centre (Chronic Respiratory Health Unit). Your kindness, gentle caring and support will never be forgotten.
Mom touched many peoples' lives and was loved by all who knew her. She will be sadly missed by all her family and friends, and forever remembered.
Due to current restrictions and our desire for everyone to remain safe, the family will arrange a Celebration of Life at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Manitoba, 204-949-2000.
Condolences may be added to the tribute wall on the Cropo website at www.cropo.com.
Arrangements entrusted to Cropo Funeral Chapel.
