She loved to bake and the family enjoyed the wide variety of pastries that she made. In the early 1970s, Erna went out and worked at the Fort Garry Hotel and later on at Perths Whitehall Ltd. She always enjoyed going on vacation with her family and the many trips to the Shooting Star Casino with her sister Lil.
