Lourdes Borofsky August 16, 1941 – July 18, 2018
Lourdes passed away peacefully and comfortably with her family by her side. She immigrated to Canada from Mexico in the summer of 1986. She will be sadly missed by her husband and best buddy Norman, her three children Felipe, Daniela, Andrea, their spouses and her grandchildren: Manuel, Felipe, Tamara, Victor, Gabriela, Luna, Cecilia, Violeta and Itzel, whom she adored; her two brothers in Mexico: Guillermo, Raul and his spouse and great friend Lourdes, as well as many nephews and nieces all with whom she was very close.
Predeceased by her beloved son Rodrigo, her first husband Manuel, her sister Yolanda and five brothers Carlos, Javier, Jorge, Jose Luis and Arturo. She enjoyed time with her many friends, both Mexican and Canadian and her yoga partners.
Hers was a life of giving. She started Enlace, a group that has assisted hundreds of Mexican farm workers who come to Ontario. Enlace Community Link was established to welcome farm workers to Ontario, to offer them support services, and to help them understand their rights and responsibilities, it also provides activities and fiestas with Mexican food and music to give the farm workers a little piece of Mexico. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jBDySz7kOQE
She was fluent in many languages and travelled extensively. She became a wonderful piano player in her senior years.
Lulú lived a full life, but not long enough for those who loved her. Thank you for the compassionate care given by the staff at Sunnybrook CVICU. A celebration of life to be announced.
