Born in Winnipeg on July 27th, 1938, Anita was active in the Jewish community, including canvassing for Hadassah Wizo for several years. She remarried and moved to Calgary in 1985 but Winnipeg was always home. She moved back to Winnipeg in 2019.
She was a loving person who was always interested in what was going on in her family and friends’ lives. She never complained and always gave of her time, money and love to others. Family was everything to Anita.
