Marie Anna Bidulka

In Loving Memory ~ May 9, 1946 ~ October 17, 2026 With heavy hearts, we say goodbye to our beloved Mom and Baba, Marie Anna Bidulka. She was so deeply loved and adored by all of us, and her absence leaves a profound void in our lives. Marie was born in Vernon, growing up as a twin in a bustling household with 12 siblings. This large family dynamic gave her the incredible strength and resilience she would later need to raise her own four children. As a single mother, Marie did whatever it took to provide, often working two or three jobs at a time. She later went back to school to train as a Long-Term Care Aide, a role where her natural compassion truly shone. Marie’s greatest accomplishments, and the true loves of her life, were her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She devoted her entire life to her family. Whenever we called or visited, she always made sure to ask about how each and every one of us was doing.
