Canora Courier December 22, 2004 Page 10 – In memory of: ROE: In memory of Donald Richard, Grand Donald, and Scott Richard, who tragically passed away on Dec. 22, 1979. It has now been 25 years, Since you’ve been taken by God, To live in His house rather than mine. Not a day has gone by, That I don’t think of all of you, With love, joy and yes, many tears. My love for you has never failed and I look forward to seeing you once again in Heaven. - Lovingly remembered and sadly missed by wife and mother, Lorraine. Canora Courier December 22, 2004 Page 10 – In memory of: PASLOSKI: In memory of Vincent Pasoloski, June 16, 2002. As another Christmas draws near; I thought of you with love today, But that was nothing new; I thought about you yesterday, And before that, too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name; All I have now are memories, And your picture in a frame. - Always remembered and sadly missed, wife Sophie.

Canora Courier December 22, 2004 Page 15 SCHOENHOFEN: (nee Hrynkiw), Mary, Aug. 20, 1911 – Dec. 7, 2004: On Tuesday, Dec. 7, 2004, Mary passed away peacefully in the presence of family at the Capilano Court private care home in Moose Jaw at the age of 93 years. The daughter of Ignace and Agnes Hrynkiw (Glowacki), Mary was born in the Dobrowody district near Rama, Sask. She spent her young years on the family farm. In 1934, she left the farm and moved to Englefeld, Sask. Where she stayed with her sister and brother-in-law, Annie and Paul Kozak. On July 28, 1936, she married William Walter Schoenhofen in Englefeld. Her husband’s job with the Canadian National Railway system saw them move frequently to many locations in Saskatchewan including: Watson, White Horn, Usherville, back to Englefeld and Mikado. Following her husband’s death in 1961, she moved to Canora where she resided until 2002. At that time, her failing health required a move to a care home in Moose Jaw where she would be closer to family support. In addition to her husband, Mary was predeceased by numerous nieces and nephews, her mother in 1931, an infant son Richard in 1940, her father in 1953, brothers Bill, Peter and John, sisters Grace and Annie and daughter-in-law Gayle Schoenhofen in 1980. She is survived by her son Edward (Brenda) Schoenhofen of Regina; four grandchildren, Tanis Weir (Regina), Ian Schoenhofen (Katrina DiTullio) (Ottawa), Kris Schoenhofen (Donnell) (Regina) and Alyssa Baade (Ryan) (Regina Beach); two great-grandchildren, Evan Schoenhofen (Regina) and Aiden Weir; and two special nieces, Mary Kozak and Ann Pasloski, both of Canora. Mary lived a simple and frugal life, supported by an unwavering Christian faith. Her greatest pleasures in life were socializing with family and friends, adoring her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, marveling at the wonders of nature and caring about the well-being of living creatures. To celebrate her life, a prayer vigil service was held at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church in Canora, Sask. On Sunday, Dec. 12, 2004 with Father Hector Seville officiating. On Monday, Dec. 13, 2004, Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated with Father Hector Seville as the celebrant. The organist, Angie Zurazloff, led the congregation and members of the parish choir in the singing of the hymns at both services. The interment followed in the Canora Cemetery where Mary will once again join her husband. The honourary pallbearers were Ann Pasloski, Mary Gulutzan, Sylvia Doreshenko, Elsie Genoway and Emily Dutchak. The active pallbearers were Ian Schoenhofen, Ryan Baade, Richard Dutchak, Dwight Milleker, Martin Kraus and Ken Rolheiser. At this time the family wishes to extend heartfelt gratitude to the staff of Capilano Court in Moose Jaw for the care and support provided to Mary over the past two years. During Mary’s final days, they elevated through their actions and words the terms care, compassion and concern for others to a level that was not thought possible. Thank you and may God bless each of you. In recognition of Mary’s love of animals, the family graciously declines floral tributes. Those so wishing may make a donation in her memory to the Regina Humane Society, P.O. Box 3143, Regina, SK, S4P 3G7 or another animal shelter of their choosing.
