Doukabour 

A hard working, Russian decent, who immigrated to Canada in the 1800’s. The women were exceptionally opinionated and demanded respectful. In that same aspect, the men decided the women should pull the phoughs and not have the heavy horse prints in the seeded field and/or garden. So they did. The Doukabour bread and Borscht is to die for. Vegetarians at heart to be believed.

After heartbreaking news, this woman handled her herself with class, dignity, and charm. Defiantly a Doukabour woman.
