They were married in Edmonton on August 11,1948 and were blessed with 68 years together. Church and community were important to Adriana and she walked faithfully in the Lord�s footsteps. She loved being involved in the family tree nursery business. Oma loved visits from her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She always had a game and jar of candies or cookies for them. Her hands were rarely idle and many knitting, sewing and crocheting projects will be precious reminders of her. Adriana was known for her generous spirit and inclusion of others.
