Sincere condolences to the Zarowny and Bowen families during this difficult time. I knew Amelia mostly as a member of the Elk Point community, first as the mom of one of my grade school classmates, as well as having later worked alongside her during my short time as a nursing aide at the Elk Point hospital, and finally as the step mom of my sister in law. She was a hard working lady from my recollection, who treasured her family.
May she rest in peace. Sincerely Karen (Scott) Mayner and family.
