I love every part of you. Your vibriant smile, upbeat personality, colorful dresses, happy hats, selfless nature, articulate speech, pretty face, and warm welcome whenever my wife Barbara and I met you and Igor for wine and dinner. There is none like you and I am certain you are keeping those with you in heaven laughing through eternity. My grief will always be my way of loving you from a distance. Till we meet again.

I still think of Halina all the time. She was a most special lady and I am so grateful our paths crossed.

I had the privilege of loving Halina when together at Monash and I have never stopped thinking about her in the over 50 years since. She was remarkable then and I am so pleased to see that she had a remarkable life and was loved. I only saw this obit a month or two ago and can’t get the girl out of my mind. Someone please tell her Ken never stopped lovIng her.

Very sorry to find out about Halina’s passing. She was very inspiring to me and helped me more than anyone in my life. She guided me through some difficult times years ago, and helped me break through to the person I am today. I am forever grateful.

Regretfully I wasn't very close to my Aunt but I did speak with her a few times over the years about my interest and passion for social work. Her obituary was beautifully written, it is clear she leaves a legacy of compassion and understanding for human need and suffering. As a social worker I feel proud to walk a similar path as hers, it would have been such a privilege to gain more knowledge and work beside her.
I'd like to express my deepest and most sincere condolences to her family and those who new and loved her.
RIP Auntie Halina. Social workers earn angel wings on earth so I'm sure you are resting peacefully.

I visited both Igor and Halina prior to their passing. They were definitely a bonded pair and my wife Barbara and I adored them. Halina always made my wife feel special. Barb and I spent many Friday nights in front of Igor's on St. Charles drinking wine and enjoying their company. She was always upbeat, sweet, kind and had always treated others as if they were important. Truly a loss but now she is once again with Igor.
