SCHRAMEK, Sarah Virginia - Surrounded by her family at St. Joseph's Hospice, Sarah Virginia Schramek died on Monday, October 30, 2017 at the age of 92. In a small town near Windsor on November 12, 1924, Elizabeth Thibeault gave birth to her second daughter, Sarah Virginia. Sarah Virginia is the sister of Edward, Frank and Betty. Virginia, as she liked to be known had worked in Windsor and later joined the Canadian Armed Forces. While in the army, she met her future husband Edward William Schramek who was from a family of 10 in Windsor. Once the war was over, Edward & Viriginia married and settled in Sarnia on Copland Road.
