Vera Newman
On Saturday, October 14, 2017 Mrs. Vera Newman passed away peacefully from this world to reunite with her husband ‘Eddy’. Born on June 6, 1927, she married Ed on April 10, 1944 and they had three children, Shirley, Douglas, and Barbara.
In her early days she could be found in her garden where she was very passionate about her flower beds. Famous for her holubtsi, pedaheh, and to-die-for pies, her love for her family could be seen in the feast she put on her table. In fact, anyone stopping by that old house on Steerola could expect a feast of flavours before leaving.
The last of her siblings, Vera is survived by her children, Shirley Lysakowski, Doug (Denise), Barb Minelli (Frank); grandchildren Brooke Lysakowski, Adrian Lysakowski, Kayla Newman, Melissa Minelli, Michael Minelli (Heather); and great grandchildren Cody, Matthew, Julia and Rosa (Michael and Heather), Emily, Nathan and Samuel (Melissa), Aidan (Adrian).
A graveside service for Vera and Ed will be held at the Little Falls Cemetery in Atikokan on Saturday, October 28, 2017 at 1pm.
In lieu of flowers, a donation to the charity of your choice would be appreciated.
