Loving mother to Walter (Alice) and Nancy (Scott). Proud and cherished Babcia to Stephanie, Nicholas, Jessica and Erica. Predeceased by siblings Janina, Władysław, Wanda and Stanisław. Maria will be lovingly remembered by many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends in Canada, Poland and the United States. Born in Poland, Maria came to Canada in 1965 with her husband and worked hard throughout her life to help establish a solid foundation for her family. She was a valued employee of Qualex (formerly Colortron). Proud of her heritage, Maria was active in the Polish-Canadian community, volunteering with organizations such as Polonez dance ensemble, PAC Ladies Circle and St. Stanislaus Women’s Rosary Society. She was honoured to win the title of “Mrs. Polonia” in 1986. She enjoyed cooking, gardening, dancing, travelling and most of all her family and friends - always making room for everyone at her table and going above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. Maria will be dearly missed by all those who knew and loved her.
