TOCHMAN, Janina (aka Jasia)
November 24, 1946 - July 10, 2022
It is with heavy hearts that our family announces the passing of our loving mother Janina on July 10th, 2022 at age 75. Born in Poland, she enjoyed 33 wonderful years in Ottawa after adopting it as her new home. She was a very kind and strong person, committed to her family and community. Gracious and giving host of many fine dinners at her family home, happily attended by family and friends. Her passions were her home, garden, her family and signing in a community choir.
Predeceased by husband Andrzej, Janina loved her family dearly. Survived by her children: Robert and Agnes, and her two grandchildren: Gabriela and Alex. She is also survived by many dear family members in Poland.
After arriving in Ottawa, she bravely started her second professional career working for a high-tech industry. Following many productive years and surviving numerous ups and down in the industry she took her well deserved retirement. She devoted herself to the pursuits of many pleasures of life like travel, family and community work. She will be deeply missed by her family, her friends and the many other lives she touched. We would like to thank doctors and the nursing staff at the Elizabeth Bruyere, St Vincent Hospital for their exceptional care during the stay there, her home for the past 7 years.
Friends and family are invited to take part in the funeral mass and service at the St. Hyacinth Polish community parish 201, Lebreton St N. Ottawa on Saturday July 16th, 2022 at 11 am., followed by a 2 pm reception at the funeral home Coopérative funéraire de l’Outaouais 95 de la Cité des Jeunes Boulevard in Gatineau (Quebec).
