Hello Betty, George, Rose and Family. May you reminisce, cry, laugh and enjoy all the times you have shared with Lena. I am glad to have been a part of your family's life in Windsor and have fond memories of times I spent with Lena. As your families gather, may you find comfort and support in your lives together and through the days to come.

So sad to read this news. Lena was my neighbor for a few years when I was a student. She often invited me over for lunch and a chat, or we'd sit on the porch petting the cats. A lovely, loving lady.

As a child, I spent a lot of time in the care of my Aunt Lena and in the company of my cousins Betty and George. One of my fondest memories is eating her delicious borscht and homemade pyrohy (perogies). She used to put cherries and other fruit in them for a special treat. She had a great sense of humour and I remember having lots of fun going to the Holiday beach with our whole families.
