With a heavy heart, we announce the passing of Monika (Moordryd) Wachowski in the early morning hours of July 17th. She spent her last two days at the palliative ward in Burnaby Hospital, surrounded by the love of family and friends.

Monika is the sister/sister-in-law to Sonya Wachowski and Carla Mandy, who were able to be with her as she passed peacefully.  

Monika was an independent spirit who loved being organized, helping out where she could. She enjoyed a good meal or sweet treat at her favourite places. Monika was a skilled bowler and loved the swings, going to the library and watching her favourite videos on the computer. She loved movies and music, a good laugh and dancing!  Monika appreciated purple, Harry Potter,  ABBA, Disney and giving affection to the people she cared about.  She will be dearly missed.   

Monika‘s celebration of life will be held August 11th, at 11 am at 7415 Sussex Ave, the L’Arche complex in Burnaby, BC. The service will be followed by a reception serving two of Monika’s favourites - pizza and ice cream.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation in her memory to BACI or the L’Arche Greater Vancouver.
