Deep thank-you goes out to Jo-Ann Jensen for the tireless and loving care she provided to Lovey and her family in the last months. Jo was a real gift in helping Lovey live with the challenges that come with dementia. May God bless you.

For years Lovey worked as manager for Salisbury House. After retiring, she served some of Winnipeg’s finest hotdogs at the Wachniak Auction house. Lovey was there to greet her hungry and eager customers with her smile and delicious wares.
Lovey was an honest, generous, fun-loving woman. She had an amazing sense of humor that made us laugh until the end. Lovey and Wally’s door was always open to everyone with great food and plenty of drink ready to go around. She will be missed more than words can express.
The family would like to thank all of Lovey’s caregivers at Poseidon Care Centre, her homecare workers and medical staff.
