HAGEN:

Mrs. Mary Hagen, age 80 of St. Mary's Villa Humboldt passed away peacefully at her residence on Friday, August 26, 2011. Mary was born on November 25, 1930 to Andrew and Mary (nee Rutchuck) Nicholat in the Fosston District. She took her education at Mallard School and then began working at the Wadena Bakery, a job she excelled in and little did she know this job would expand her talents as she raised eight children. On June 8 1952 she married Raymond Hagen. Together, they began a mixed farm on the land Raymond's grandfather previously owned in the Rose Valley area. She was a very active partner in the day to day operations of the farm. Mary always made time for company and usually on a daily basis would have someone sitting at the kitchen table sharing stories. They were blessed with one daughter and seven sons, so needlessly to say she produced large vegetable and fruit gardens. These gardens were used for necessity and meditation where she would escape and enjoy some quiet spiritual times. Mary was a natural homemaker and taking on the role of domestic engineer came very easy. She loved to cook and that showed in her delicious dishes she would create that filled the house with wonderful aroma for the children to remember including the 48 loaves of bread she would bake on a weekly basis. Preparing the Ukrainian traditional meals for Christmas and Easter brought her much pleasure as her family would sit around the large table and enjoy her cooking. Mary was a very strong hard working woman who wasn't afraid to get dirty, but when it was time to be seen in the public she always presented herself with elegance and beauty. She would make sure not a hair was out of place and her lipstick was on. In 1994 Raymond and Mary retired to Muenster where she continued to enjoy her domestic duties. Due to failing health Mary had to move to St. Mary's Villa where she resided until her passing. Mary will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by her husband of 59 years RAYMOND Hagen of Humboldt; eight children, 18 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren: Valerie (Gordon) Olynick of Quill Lake and family Falen (Greg) Nelson of Tisdale and Garett Olynick of Quill Lake; Dwight (Barbara) Hagen of Archerwill and family Darnell Hagen (Donna) and their children Ella and Freya of Saskatoon, Somer Wourms (Shawn) and children Warren, Austin and Kenton of Grayson, Lance Hagen (Courtney) of Saskatoon, Adriel Hagen (Alicia) of Muenster and Whitney Hagen (Brad) of Saskatoon; Elvis (Maryann Major) Hagen of Muenster and family Shannon Barth (Kevin) and children Callum, Hailey and Jackson of Brampton, ON, Cory Hagen of Saskatoon and sons Kyle and Tyler, Greg Hagen of Vancouver, BC Nicholas Hagen-Major and Christopher Hagen-Major both of Muenster; Gerry (Denise) Hagen of Saskatoon; Merlin (Angela) Hagen and daughter Savannah of Saskatoon; Lyle (Bernadette) Hagen and family Katelynn, Alyssa and Derek of Saskatoon; Curtis Hagen of Yellowknife, NWT and Nevin (Linda) Hagen and family Reese and Liam of Fort McMurray, AB; one sister Christine Fedirko of Saskatoon and sisters and brother-in-law Irene (Ken) Donald of Kelvington, Sagne (Larry) Hunter of San diego, CA and Ivan Hagen of Winnipeg, MB; and by many nieces and nephews.
