SHUGAR, Anne (nee Sirota) June 4, 1919 - May 28, 2013 Just shy of her ninety-fourth birthday, with wonderful moments of final goodbyes with loving family from across Canada and the U.S.A. Visits were made in person, by telephone, Skype, letter, photograph and video with her children Dick (Judy), Donna (Ken), Bill (Fortunee); grandchildren Robin, Daniel, Erica, Laura, Johanna, and Davis; sister Evelyn Cherniak, brother-in-law Dr. Morris Cherniak; with her nieces, nephews and sister-in-law Myra. She received particular joy from her great-grandchildren Maddie, Josh, and baby Ansel. Anne was predeceased by her beloved soul mate Joe, and by her devoted brother Laizer Sirota. Anne valued the cultivation of intellect through education and appreciation of arts and culture. She was a McGill graduate in the 1940's and again thirty years later when she received her Master's degree in Special Education. She encouraged and assisted her children and her grandchildren with their own pursuits of higher education. Special thanks to Doreen Friedman of Place Kensington for her spirit and kindness. Graveside service on Thursday, May 30 at 1:00 pm, at the Hebrew Sick Benefit Association Cemetery, de la Savane. A celebration of Anne's life will immediately follow the service, in the social room of 6005 Cavendish Blvd. Shiva at Evelyn's home. Contributions in Anne's memory may be made to the charity of your choice. Arrangements entrusted to Paperman & Sons. |
