She passed away on July 17, 2010, at Maplewood Manor, Steinbach, Manitoba, reaching the age of eighty-nine years. Death was caused by complications of old age. Erna spent her childhood and youth years on her parents' farm near McTavis, Manitoba. At thirteen years of age, she gave her heart to the Lord and in 1934 was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite at Rosenort, Manitoba. She was faithful to these vows until the end. She found her life's companion in Peter Rempel, and they were joined in marriage on February 6, 1944. This union was blessed with four sons and four daughters. After forty-seven years of marriage, our Dad passed away on December 6, 1991, leaving Mother very lonesome and with a deep desire to go home. During their early married life, Mother and Dad lived at various places, sometimes working for local farmers in lieu of military duty. After several years, they purchased a farm near Morris, where they lived and worked until 1989 when they moved to their retirement home in Rosenort. As children, we have early memories of a busy mother who loved to cook and provide for our daily needs. At times she suffered poor health, and because we needed to pitch in and help, we learned many lessons about hard work that we still appreciate. In her later years she spent many hours crocheting and sewing, working with her hands until her failing eyesight caused her to quit. She favored her children, grandchildren, and many others with hand-sewn quilts and crocheted afghans. She enjoyed time spent with her family and was always interested in the spiritual welfare of her children and grandchildren. We are especially grateful to Lorraine and Carol Lynn for patiently tending to Mother's needs during her later years. Due to failing health, her last year was spent in Maplewood Manor, where she received excellent care. Those left to cherish her memory are Allan and wife, Alice, Galva, Kansas; Lorraine, Rosenort, Manitoba; Denton and wife, Mary Jane, Grandview, Idaho; Margaret and husband, Dave Penner, Fullarton, Ontario; Doris and husband, Roland Penner, St. Marys, Ontario; Carol Lynn, Rosenort, Manitoba; Merrill and wife, Geraldine, Morris, Manitoba; and Delbert and wife, Jolene, Rosenort, Manitoba; twenty-five grandchildren, and thirty-two great-grandchildren. She is also survived by four sisters and two brothers: Harold and Annie, Rosenort, Manitoba; Marie Toews, Neilburg, Saskatchewan; Alfred and Marlena, Rosenort, Manitoba; Mae and Claude Toews, Rimby, Alberta; Evelyn and Leonard Penner, Sinclair, Manitoba; and Pearl and Earnest Thiessen, Cromer, Manitoba; one sister-in-law, Rosina Goossen, Rosenort, Manitoba; one brother-in-law, Vernon Boese, Camrose, Alberta; and many other relatives and friends. Her husband, two brothers, and one sister predeceased her. Funeral services were held on July 21, 2010, at the Rosenort Congregation, Rosenort, Manitoba. Officiating ministers were Mark Hiebert, Melvin Penner, and Robert Goossen. The burial was in the adjoining church cemetery.
