Julia was born on October 21, 1926 in Poland and immigrated to Canada at the age of two along with her mother, to be reunited with her father. The family settled in southern Manitoba in the Tilston area, moving to the Dunkinville area and finally to the Harlington district. While working in the Harlington district for Milton & Jean Mayers, Mom met the love of her life, Frank Nerbas. They were married on May 26, 1949 at St. James Anglican Church, Swan River. As a couple Mom & Dad spent a brief period of time in Beardmore, ON., returning to Swan River to make their forever home. Mom devoted her love, time and talents to her husband, children and household. She had a full time job as wife and mother, which she engaged in, with love and caring to the fullest. Mom also was very involved in the St. James Anglican Church with A.C.W., altar guild and the list goes on. Her greatest passion was her family – children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
