Tribute wall - a place to share your memories and condolences
Rysa Hanna
Dear Linda, Elizabeth, Rosalinda, Daniel and Annmarie,
We are sorry for your loss. My mom Ella was Harry’s cousin and was lucky enough to travel to Canada with him, Nellie, Helen and Samuel. Harry and Ella did keep in touch regularly by phone until her stroke 9 years ago. After that dear Harry faithfully did all the calling.
We only found out today when I called the residence receptionist because when my brother had called Harry earlier, his roommate only knew he had been hospitalized.
On behalf of Ella we share your loss and will miss Harry’s caring calls to Ella.
Sincerely,
Ella Showkewych, her daughter Rysa Hanna and family and my brother Roman
