September 1, 1930 - June 26, 2020
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of an incredibly beautiful life. Our beloved Anastasia (Nancy) Jelinski, passed away unexpectedly on June 26, 2020 at her home in Abbotsford, BC.
Nancy lived her life with such a light that the immense weight of her passing is felt by so many. We will miss her huge heart, the generous way in which she gave her love, her passion for her family and friends, her caring nature, her humor, her stories, and her inspirational faith in God. We are so grateful to have been blessed with a woman like Nancy in our lives.
Nancy was preceded in death by her husband Henry, her son Howie, and her siblings; Rose, Anne, Jean, Casey, and Violet. She is survived by her loving children; Marty (Tami) Jelinski, Norbert (Gayle) Jelinski, Paul Jelinski, Judy (Rod) Dahl, Dave (Sherri) Jelinski, and Howie's spouse Michelle Jelinski, grandchildren; Alivia and Liana Jelinski, Zak Dahl, Joel and Lance Jelinski, Anna Jelinski, and Steven and Matthew Reisinger; and many loving nieces and nephews.
To honor the beautiful memory of her life, we should all strive to live our lives with love, kindness, humor, faith, and a welcoming and generous spirit. Her love was present in every breath she took, and she has left us all with a legacy of love that we are charged to carry on in our own lives.
A formal mass to celebrate Nancy's life will be held at a later date. A more detailed obituary can be found at www.frccs.com/obituary-listing.
