Dear Romaniuk family we are so sorry for the loss of your Mom/baba. When you think of your mother and everything that made her the wounderful lady she was, her memory will live on through each and every one of you. There is no greater testament to your mother than to the wonderfull family she raised. And may we add a special recognition to Rhonda for the loving care she gave to her Baba in her last days.

Remembering Auntie Rose as an Aunt who lived near by and when I was younger she would give me cream for my cats, you never left that house without being fed (soup and fresh bread after making chop there) and always happy to see you at any occasion. Rest in peace Auntie

Sending our condolences to the entire Romaniuk family. My favourite memory of Rosie has to be at Ukrainian dancing concerts. She would always pull us aside to chat about the concert and to see how we are doing She is truly a wonderful lady and will be missed.

Our wonderful Baba is now in the arms of our heavenly Father. We were blessed to have her with us for over 101 years. Even though distance separated us for decades our times together were never forgotten. It is remarkable how, many times we can’t remember what happened just last week but yet, we vividly remember like yesterday our times together with Baba when we were young children and teenagers. We spent days picking strawberries or mushrooms (queslie???) or doing the chores together. She molded our lives and our work ethics beyond what she ever realized. Yes we were blessed to have her as our Baba. Thank you Baba we love you and will see you again someday soon.
