She is survived by her daughter Elaine (Bill) Bronsdon; daughter-in-law Beverley; grandchildren: Trevor (Lois), their children, Ryder and Olivia; Kyle (Dorothy); Justin (Lindsay), their children, Riley and Jack; Sharla Cornish; Richelle (Grant) Starke; and Jordan (Carolyn) Bronsdon, their children, Jacob and Caleb; sister Helen (John) Martin, their daughters, Karen (Kevin) Morris and Sandra; sister-in-law Olga Moravec, and many other loved ones and extended family.

Kathy was born in Poland and immigrated to Canada with her parents in 1938, settling in a small northern community near Benito, Manitoba. She married her dear Paul in 1948, taking up residence near Durban, Manitoba, where they raised their family, developed the land and built a family farm before relocating to Winnipeg in 1971. Kathy was a gracious, appreciative and hospitable woman who took great pleasure in bringing happiness to her family and friends. Her faith in her Lord was strong and she maintained a thankful and hopeful spirit, even when she faced difficulties as her health declined with advanced age. She will be greatly missed, and fondly and lovingly remembered. We rejoice with her as she is with her Saviour, Jesus Christ. The family wishes to express sincere appreciation to the staff at Golden Links Lodge for their kind and compassionate care. Family will celebrate Kathy's life on Thursday, October 25, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg.
