Her life story is one of courage. After enduring the Nazi incursion into her native Budapest in the 1940's, she completed her education and rose quickly in the Hungarian government's department of Economics. She fled Hungary in 1956 in the midst of the Hungarian Revolution, and emerged in the free world without money or possessions with her husband and young son. They moved to Winnipeg, Canada, where she studied social work. Her life focus has been on freedom (Usher, 2002), (Winnipeg Free Press, 2002),(Marshall, 2005),(Marshall, 2006). She has received numerous honours and citations (Winnipeg Free Press, April 23, 2003),(Binning, 2003),(Vesely, 2003).
