Born in Piran, Slovenija, former Yugoslavia, Anita’s life journey took her across Europe before she eventually made her home in Kitchener, Ontario. She lived in Italy and France along the way, embracing each culture and experience. Through the years, she developed a remarkable ability for languages, speaking Italian, Croatian, Slovenian, French, and English.
Anita's favourite pastime was spending time in her garden tending to flowers and growing vegetables. In her youth, she enjoyed singing in the choir at church. She also worked as a cook at an institute for the deaf. She will be missed by her family and friends.
