With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Elizabeth Meszaros, in her 97th year. She passed away peacefully at home on February 3, 2025.

Elizabeth will be deeply missed by her sons, Ted (Beth) and John; her daughter, Elizabeth; her grandchildren, Andrea, Jason, and Tina; and her many great-grandchildren. She was predeceased by her devoted husband, Barna, with whom she shared 72 years of marriage, as well as her son Dezső.

Born in Hungary, Elizabeth immigrated to Canada with her husband and children in 1957, embracing a new life and creating a loving home. She was an exceptional baker, known for her delicious homemade dishes, and a talented seamstress who crafted many cherished pieces. A self-taught chicken farmer and gardener, she took great pride in growing Hungarian peppers and making her own paprika. Her beautiful rose garden was a source of joy, always filling her yard with vibrant colours and the most amazing scent.

Above all, Elizabeth was devoted to her family and pets. She faced life’s challenges with resilience and strength, never giving up, and leaving behind a legacy of love and determination. She will be fondly remembered and deeply missed.
