Sherna Gross (née Richler)

Sherna lived a wonderful and fulfilling life, enriched by countless happy memories and meaningful experiences. She devoted much of her life to writing music and was a dedicated member of ORT and the "Amici" friendship group for over 80 years. She also had a passion for making chocolates and, even into her late 90s, embraced new technology with enthusiasm, enjoying surfing the internet and remaining curious and engaged with the world around her.

She devoted much of her life to honouring the memory of her beloved daughter, Wendy, tirelessly canvassing for donations for the Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation. In recognition of her unwavering dedication and tireless work on behalf of the cystic fibrosis community, she was honoured many times for her outstanding fundraising efforts.

Sherna will be remembered for her warmth, kindness, creativity, generosity, and unwavering dedication to her family, friends, and the causes she held close to her heart.

Heartfelt gratitude to her special caregivers, Maybel, Nanette, Karen and Salem for their exceptional care and devotion. Special thanks to the amazing staff of Vigi Mt. Royal. She considered Vigi as her new home.
