Passed away, in her 98th year, at Union Villa LTC Residence in Unionville on Wednesday, May 10, 2023.

Poldi was a long time resident and active community member of Green River and then Greenbank, and, in her later years, West Shore Village, Port Perry.

Born in Oed, Lower Austria, she emigrated to Canada in 1954 where she married, raised a family, and while working at home and on the land, found ways to express her creative and adventurous spirit through travel, gardening, nature, arts, crafts, and friendship.

Predeceased by her loving husband Erich (2014) and her beloved daughter Dorothy (2021), Poldi is survived and cherished by her daughter Helene Iardas (Ed) and son-in-law Dave Skinner. She will be greatly missed by her many friends and her extended family in Austria.

Heartfelt thanks to the dedicated, caring teams of PSWs, Nurses, Doctors, and other caregiving staff who made Poldi’s final years comfortable, happy, and fulfilled.

Service will be held at the Low and Low Funeral Home, 1763 Reach Street, Port Perry on Friday, May 19, 2023 at 2p.m. with visitation beginning at 1p.m.

Memorial donations may be made to Canadian Cancer Society, Alzheimer Society of Canada, or charity of your choice.
