BLACK, Anna (Anne) - Centenarian
September 20, 1917 - November 22, 2022
On November 22nd in her 106th year, resident for 19 months at Chartwell Wynfield LTC Nursing Home in Oshawa, ON, Anne began the solemn journey to ‘Everlasting Life’, for which she had been waiting and praying.
After living so independently beyond her 100th year, adjusting to immobility was to be a daunting challenge.
Both Anne and her late husband Michael (1993) were Canadian born. They relocated from Winnipeg, MB to Oshawa with their first-born son, Kenneth.
As for many other families, employment opportunities at General Motors of Canada would help them establish a new life in this growing community ‘in the east’.
