Obituary of Ana Utrosa

UTROSA, Ana (nee Bunderla) Passed away with her children by her side, on Wednesday, October 21, 2020 at the age of 83. Dearest wife for 55 years to the late Martin Utrosa (2018). Loving mother of Martin Jr. and partner Judy Kaake, and JoAnne and husband Rob VidAmour. Adored Nana to Chloe, Jackson, and Ty VidAmour and Maxwell Utrosa (Mother Jodi Ropac). Daughter of the late Franc and Louise Bunderla. She will be sadly missed by sister Hilda (late Anton) Godar; nephew Karl (late Susan) Godar, and niece Marie (Gord) Tulloch of Winnipeg. As well as her family and friends in Slovenija and Canada. Ana immigrated to Canada in from Slovenija and lived in Winnipeg where she met and married her husband Martin. Together with newborn Martin Jr., they moved to Windsor and welcomed JoAnne into the family a few years later. She held a variety of jobs throughout her life, from working at Olsonite and Sheller-Globe, being a cook at the University of Windsor, and a dedicated Nanny “Annie” to Robert, Lauren, Lexi and Christian Loebach. Ana will be remembered by many as someone who could walk into a room and lift the spirits of all present. She liked meeting people, whether it be on a vacation, or standing in line at the bank. She always looked at the positives in all people and lived each day to the fullest. Ana’s greatest joy was spending time with her 4 grandchildren. They enjoyed cooking, making up new games, playing outdoors and simply being together. She was a proud Canadian, an avid gardener, a wonderful cook and someone who always valued the company of family and friends. She was a member of the Windsor Slovenija Club (Zvon), where she enjoyed celebrating many occasions with friends from the old country. Ana was a parishioner of Our Lady of Perpetual Help where she attended mass for many years. A special thank you to the nurses, PSW’s, recreational and kitchen staff at Banwell Gardens, for always making our Mom smile, and your kind and loving care during her 2 years there.
