Read More	Obit from Messenger of Truth Issue 2, 2015: Pauline Unger Penner was born in the hamlet of Prairie Rose, Manitoba, nearly ninety years ago on November 22, 1924. Her parents were Abram and Katie Unger. Several years after she was born, her parents moved to a bend in the Seine River near Ste. Anne, and this was to be where she lived until she married Jake Penner in 1951. They were married on Dominion Day, which later became Canada Day. Mom would sometimes talk about her growing up years-about her school years, the time spent doing farm work, and then later as a bookkeeper at Ste. Anne Co-op. It was during these years at Ste. Anne, that she gave her heart to God. Mom became a homemaker, going with Dad to the bush camps in the Whiteshell and elsewhere in the winters where Dad made a livelihood with a sawmill and a crew of men cutting trees and milling box lumber. Their first months of marriage were spent at Betula Lake. We children will treasure those bush camp memories the rest of our lives. Jake Orlando was born first, Marjorie Ellen was born second, and then Lorne Howard. Mom did home schooling for two years in the small house trailer the family lived in during the winter months. Mom and Dad had two daughters who died in infancy. Myrna Ruth was the last-born. Dad and Mom made a livelihood in the gravel business for the remaining duration of our growing up years. We as children look back on the gravel pit days with fondness, as we remember the exploring we would do, the clear blue waters we would swim in, and the many picnic lunches Mom would bring. Mom did the bookkeeping for Dad's various businesses and will be remembered as a hard worker and a caring mother, living through times that were far from easy. Mom was very lonely after Dad's tragic passing in a vehicle accident in 2000. She continued to live on the acreage they had enjoyed and spent many long hours in upkeep. She was driven to hard work. Although Dad had been quite ready to call in family for fun and yard work, Mom had an independent streak and managed those six acres of lawn and trees mostly by herself. She spent winter months of her senior years in crocheting doilies. Failing health obliged her to move into the self-care suites of the Maplewood Manor, Steinbach, Manitoba, in 2012. She was glad to be able to spend her last years with her sister, Nettie, and later, with her older sister, Lizzie. She passed away in the late afternoon of October 4, 2014, leaving us an assurance of finding her eternal reward. She cared about the spiritual welfare of those coming after her. Left to mourn are two sons: Orlando and Luanna, Blumenort, Manitoba; Lorne and Carol, Ste. Anne, Manitoba; one daughter, Myrna, Steinbach, Manitoba; and son-in-law, Winston and wife, Noreen; as well as eighteen grandchildren and thirty-one great-grandchildren; two brothers: Bill and Laverne; and Tony and Eva; and sisters: Nettie, Lizzie, Matilda and husband, David Wohlgemuth; and sister-in-law, Frances. She will be missed by all. She was predeceased by her husband, two daughters, a grandson, and two brothers. Funeral services were held on October 8, 2014, at the Blumenort Evangelical Mennonite Church, Blumenort, Manitoba. Officiating was Pastor Barry Plett. Interment was in Blumenort EMC Cemetery, Blumenort, Manitoba.
