Waleria Romaszewski

Waleria was born in Lithuania and later lived in Poland, where she met her husband, Dionizy, and they welcomed their son, Victor. Together, they moved to Canada and built a life on a small farm outside of Chilliwack, British Columbia.

Waleria was a hardworking, strong-willed and independent woman who lived a long and eventful life. After the passing of her husband, Waleria made Penticton her home. There she spent her years with friends, creating memories and living a full life. She spent her last years living in Vernon, surrounded by her family. She travelled to many places throughout her life and experienced many changes over her 96 years.

Waleria is survived by her son, Victor and his wife, Annette; her grandson, Vincent and his wife, Jenny, and her granddaughter Angela. She has two great-grandchildren, Maddex and Vallen, with another great-grandchild soon to join the family.

She was predeceased by her husband, Dionizy, who passed away in 1982.

After more than four decades apart, Waleria will be laid to rest beside her husband in Chilliwack, where they began their life together in Canada.

She leaves behind a family who will remember her in their own ways and carry her memory forward.
