KUNZ: Pauline

March 9, 1931 – May 27, 2017

Pauline (nee Crone) Kunz of Humboldt, SK passed away on Saturday, May 27, 2017 at St. Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon, SK.  She was 86 years of age. Pauline was born March 9, 1931 to Henry and Maria (nee Rolfes) Crone at home on their farm in the Annaheim District. She grew up attending school in Annaheim. She worked for a couple of months for George and Clara Thieman looking after the children, doing some cooking and other things as needed. After that Grandma needed her at home to help with all the house duties. Pauline met the love of her life, Simon Kunz, and they were married October 10, 1950 at which time they moved into their new home on the farm. Pauline loved being on the farm.  She helped milk the cows and loved to bake and look after her garden. She was a fabulous baker and made the best bread and buns ever. Over the years Pauline and Simon did some travelling. Some highlights included attending the Briers across Canada, going to BC, the States, Spain and Hawaii. In 1987, they moved to Humboldt where they continued to live in their home up until the time of her passing. Pauline loved to spend time with her family and grandchildren. Over the years they enjoyed camping throughout the various parks in Saskatchewan until they acquired a seasonal site at Greenwater Lake Provincial Park. They spent many years there fishing and enjoying the outdoors and made many new friends. Pauline was a very strong woman and the family was shocked and saddened by the sudden and unexpected battle of cancer that overcame her so quickly. Pauline will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by her husband of almost 67 years, Simon Kunz; two sons and two daughters and their families, Janet (Joe) Back and family, Leahette (Dean) Zerff and children Brooke Morgan (Ryan), Brittany Morgan and Braeden Zerff, Deanna (Shawn) Wentz and children Makayla, Trinity and Austin Wentz; Rod (Elva) Kunz and family, Rodelle (Kurt) Genoway and Kalen Kunz;  Corinne (Doug) Wourms and family, Warren Wourms (Lisa), Jill (Scott) Golding and children Alexa, Colton and Mason Golding, Ramie (Dan) Ireland and children Ethan and Emma Carey;  Carey (Shelly) Kunz and family Brodie Kunz (Molli) and Brett Kunz; three sisters and two brothers: Martha Kunz, Anna Niekamp, John (Dorothy) Crone, Joseph (Eleanor) Crone, Lucille Wuchner; sisters-in-law: Josephine Crone, Rita Crone, Josie Carrobourg, Lorraine Crone, Rita Crone; and by numerous nieces and nephews.
