In 1955 the family emigrated to Canada and settled in Oshawa where her son, John, was born. Fenia worked for many years at General Motors and was one of the first women to work on the assembly line.She had a love for life, willingness to work very hard, eternal optimism and stubborn refusal to let obstacles stop her from meeting her goals.She had a wonderful sense of humour, keen interest in current events and emphasised education, encouraging her children to seize the opportunities she had been denied by historical events.
