Anczarski, Helena (nee Jasiczek)

Passed away peacefully on Wednesday, January 13, 2021 at Copernicus Lodge, in her 90th year. Predeceased by her beloved husband Jozef. Dear aunt of Piotr (Barbara) Kita, Andrzej (Danuta) Kita, Sr. Anna Kita, Helena (Zbigniew) Mitoraj, the late Marek (Zofia) Kita and Irene (Robert) Henderson and many other extended family members.

Helena emigrated to New Zealand in 1959, where she met and married Jozef. In 1969, they moved to Canada to be closer to Jozef’s brother Walter and his family.

Helena visited her family in Poland many times and often hosted them here as visitors in Canada. She helped Piotr and Monika establish their lives in Canada.
