Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryTEENIE KWASNICKI It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our mother and baba, Teenie Kwasnicki on Monday, March 31, 2014 at St. Boniface Hospital. Mom was born on March 23, 1927 to Wasyl and Mary Chubaty of St. Malo, MB. In 1945 she met her husband John, and they were married on May 4, 1946. They settled in Tolstoi where she began her career as a teacher. She taught for only a brief time as she returned to her true passion of being a homemaker and farmer alongside her husband. In essence, she continued to teach those that surrounded her with family values and life lessons. Whether it was decorating Easter eggs, pinching perogies, rolling cabbage rolls or giving relationship advice, there was always a lesson to be learned. She was especially proud of her Ukrainian heritage. Mom was a longtime member of the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Tolstoi and the Ukrainian Women's Auxiliary of Canada. Mom was an exceptional individual. She will be remembered by her sharp wit, candid humor, and gentle nature.

Mrs. Kwasnicki, the respectful name I had gotten to know her by through two of my very good friends and her daughters, Karen and Andrea and their family. I remember her as a very kind, friendly, gentle woman. She did her job well and set a very good example, in nuturing and raising her family. Our most deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences on the loss of your mother. - Posted by: Wes and Bonnie Gushuliak (family friends) on: Apr 06, 2014

You never forget the people who mould or cross through your lives. Auntie Teenie was always direct and fair. You never got anything by her and you always knew where you stood. Our visits to her and John's home were always fun and memorable. It was a blessing to be part of the clan. Life is short but Teenie's was full and so were the lives of the people who she loved and impacted. Our heartfelt condolences go out to all of her family. We are sorry to be away and unable to attend her service. Our love and best wishes go out to everyone. - Posted by: Jim and Laurie Randall (Nephew) on: Apr 05, 2014
