She enjoyed sharing baking with family, friends and neighbours. Hedy loved being with people and saw the best in everyone. Hedy played piano for congregational singing, sang in the choir, taught Sunday school and led the children’s Christmas program. At West Portal Church, Hedy and John enjoyed attending and planning the seniors’ Bible study. They bowled with the seniors, and Hedy joined the ladies’ singing group.

A year after his death, she was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis.
