Yes my grandma Leona Halwa (Manchak) passed away on Monday, February 21, 2022 (not quite a year ago). I think she was 93 years (born in October 1928). There was a funeral service for her in mid-June 2022 at Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church in Nisku. She was cremated and her ashes buried with my grandpa Walter Halwa at the church cemetery.
