Flora married Morris Predinchuk on August 28, 1958.  Together they were blessed with two children Kathy and Bill.  Their children brought them great joy over the years and blessed them with grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Flora was a community minded leader.  She dedicated many hours to her children’s school, music and sporting activities.  She was active with the Order of the Royal Purple, holding may chairs including Honoured Royal Lady.  She was the Senior Choir leader for over 25 years at Bethel United Church, Moosomin, SK and most recently a proud member in McClure Place Choristers and Ukulele Group and helping to lead the singing at Amy McClure House. 

She loved to spend time with her children and grandchildren doing many activities and playing games.   Vacation time with Grandma was always special and certainly lots of spoiling happened.

Music played a significant part in her life and enjoyment.  Flora was a soloist in church and at countless weddings and funerals within the community of Moosomin for many years.

She enjoyed working with her husband of 48 years operating their professional photography studio and later art gallery.

Together Flora and Morris spent many days and vacations at their cottage at Round Lake creating lasting memories for their children and grandchildren.  They loved to travel together and visited many parts of Canada and the USA.

Her love of life and spirit will be treasured in memories of all whose lives she touched.
