Preceded in death by Mother Lena and sister Jeanette Kozniuk
Born in Vegreville, Alberta/Canada as Louise Betty Kozniuk on March 27th, 1941. She attended the University of Alberta and UC Berkeley, Haas School of Business. She was a member of the Sufi Order and lived at the Abode of the Message, New Lebanon, New York.
Radha’s sudden passing in the Bahamas leaves a void in those whose lives she touched. She was an avid traveler, patron of the arts and yoga practitioner. Her concern for animals was exceeded only by her concern for those of lesser fortune. This was demonstrated by a lifetime of service to various community service organizations, including City of Orinda and Orinda Rotary.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Marine Mammal Center, 1065 Fort Cronkhite, Sausalito, CA 94965 in her honor.
A celebration of her life will be held in Mid July.
Blessed are those who Mourn for they will be comforted.
We will always Love you and will miss you forever.
Honey, you were there for me from the Beginning and you continue to guide me through the mysteries of Life. I am forever grateful for your wit, charm, intellect, beauty and above all, your Passion. Eternally in Love,
Govinda
