Kathy was sent to a work camp in Siberia where she endured many hardships; including being trapped underground in one of the five coal mine cave-ins that occurred while she was working underground. The injuries that she received in the cave-in caused her much pain right up until her passing. Through all this, Kathy and John’s love for each other didn’t waiver although they were apart. In 1952, John immigrated to Canada and found employment on a farm near Quill Lake, and later at the forestry farm in Saskatoon. Four years later Kathy received her passport and in 1963, 20 years later, John and Kathy were married in Pasweign where John had purchased a farm. A few years later they were in a terrible motor vehicle accident and they had to move to Regina for 13 years so John could attend physiotherapy. Kathy worked at whatever jobs were available to her.
