She peacefully departed this life at the Bethesda Hospital, Steinbach, Manitoba, on October 16, 1982, reaching the age of 77 years, 8 months, and 20 days. Mother lived in Greenland all her life. At the age of fourteen, she answered God's call and, upon true repentance, was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. She remained true to her vows unto the end. At the age of nineteen, she lost her mother in death, leaving her with the added responsibilities, being the oldest of the children at home. On March 21, 1926, she was married to Jacob D. Warkentin, sharing life's joys and sorrows for over fifty-six years. To this union twelve children were born. She was a healthy, active mother in the home, also helping with the outdoor work. In 1948, it became evident that not all was well with Mother's health. Her condition was later diagnosed as Parkinson's disease. After her illness set in, Mother had to rely more and more on Dad and the children to do the daily chores. In spite of her failing health, she continued to show a strong faith in God and a constant cheerfulness. She would often say, "There will be a way." Many times she expressed her concern for the spiritual welfare of the family. The last nine years Mother spent in various care homes. The first years she spent in the Greenland Home. When this home was destroyed by a tornado, she was taken to the Personal Care Home, Steinbach, and later to the Maplewood Manor. We as a family deeply appreciate the loving care Mother received while in these homes. The sudden passing of Dad almost two months ago seemed to affect Mother very much. No more would Dad come to visit her at the home. Her health seemed to decline from that time until her passing. We are thankful that her suffering is over. Mother leaves to mourn: four daughters: Irene and husband Edwin Penner, Swan River; Doris and husband Albert Penner, Morris; June and husband Denton Barkman, Killarney; Irma and husband Lewis Giesbrecht, Ste. Anne; seven sons: Eldon and wife Geraldine, Saltcoats, Saskatchewan; Irvy, Ste. Anne; Louis and wife Edith, Bredenbury, Saskatchewan; Clifford and wife Naomi, Rio Verde, Goias, Brazil; Milton and wife Margaret, Cartwright; Dewayne and wife Adeline, Ste. Anne; Marlin and wife Kathy, Ste. Anne; sixty-two grandchildren; twenty-five great-grandchildren; five sisters: Margaret, Mrs. John Thiessen, Ste. Anne; Agnes, Mrs. John G. Penner, Ste. Anne; Carolina, Mrs. Frank Giesbrecht, Ste. Anne; five brothers: Peter R. Wiebe, Steinbach; Henry R. Wiebe, Steinbach; Aron R. Wiebe, Mount Lehman, British Columbia; George R. Wiebe, Ste. Anne; and Ben R. Wiebe, Fullarton, Ontario. Mother was predeceased by her beloved husband, Jacob D. Warkentin, on August 23, 1982; one daughter, Rosella; one son-in-law, John Reimer; one grandchild; two great-grandchildren; one sister, Anna, Mrs. Frank F. Goossen; and one brother, Isaac. Funeral services were held October 19, 1982, at the Greenland Church. Burial was in the adjoining cemetery. _________________________________________________________ Birth: 16 Jan 1905, Rural Municipality of La Broquerie, Manitoba Death: 16 Oct 1982, Steinbach, Manitoba Burial: 19 Oct 1982, Greenland, Manitoba SPOUSE: Warkentin, Jacob D., 13 May 1904, Married: 21 Mar 1926; Children 1 Warkentin, Eldon W. 2 Warkentin, Irene W. 3 Warkentin, Rosella, 26 Apr 1930 4 Warkentin, Ervy Vernon, 21 Jun 1931 5 Warkentin, Louis Robert 6 Warkentin, Clifford W. 7 Warkentin, Doris W. 8 Warkentin, _____, 17 Jun 1937 9 Warkentin, Milton Wilbert 10 Warkentin, Dewayne Jack 11 Warkentin, June Lorene 12 Warkentin, Irma Lois 13 Warkentin, Marlin Leon
