She dedicated her life to loving and caring for her family including her children Valentina (Joe), John (Natalie), Grace (Dimas), Silvino (Maria), and Suzette (Steve); grandchildren Michelle, Jenny, Mike, Christine, Stephanie, Celine, Alex, and Adrianna; and great-grandchildren Austin, Brayden, Dorian, Dahlia, Chiara, Vinny, and Catalina who always brought her so much joy and laughter.

Zulmira was a beautiful, wise and dignified person, worthy of respect – a truly special lady who left a lasting mark on me. It was an honour to have met her.
I trust she is now rejoicing in the presence of The LORD, God, her Creator.
Dragan and I extend our deepest sympathies to Suzette and Steve and the rest of the family.

May your happy memories give you peace and comfort during this challenging time.” Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family,
A better mother I could not ask for. A harder worker I’ve never encountered. She gave freely of her time, energy and all her resources. She was so loving and rained adoration upon her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She received from them the same as she taught by example. Even provided daycare to a couple neighbour kids. She was a master massa maker and talented florist. Full of integrity and dignity.
Thank you, Evelyn & Herman. Lord bless and keep you.
So sorry to hear the news. Our thoughts are with the family. Celebrate her life and the family she created.
God bless, Margaret and Scott Brown
