 Magdalena was born in Kukujevci, Srem, Croatia on August 17, 1932. She immigrated to Canada in 1953, settling first in Longueuil, Quebec then making her way west to Taber in 1971. Magdalena worked hard in her life at various jobs, but her most important job was as a homemaker and caregiver to many children. She was full of life. Magdalena loved to travel, dance, play Bingo and cards, bowling and crotcheting. Family was everything to her. She looked forward to hearing from her many family members around the world. Even on the day she died, she was happy to hear about the newest addition to the family in Quebec.
