MARY KORNELSON
Mary (Stobbe) Kornelson of Saskatoon passed away Dec. 8. She was born July 26, 1907 in Kuban, Russia. When she was 3, the family immigrated to Canada, settling near Langham/Borden, Sask. They later moved to British Columbia. She married John Kornelson. They lived in B.C. and Saskatchewan. John died in February 1987. For the last 11 years, she lived in Central Haven Special Care Home, Saskatoon. Her home was always open to anyone needing a bed or a meal. She enjoyed music and reading. She prayed regularly for her family. Despite poor health, she was content and grateful for all things, most of all for salvation in Christ. She is remembered as a godly woman. Her favourite German hymn expressed her confidence: "1 Won't be a Stranger There". Predeceased by John, 7 brothers, 1 sister, 1 grandson and 1 great-grandson, she is mourned by children Art, Johnny, Albert, Miriam Tieszen, Harvey, Esther Quiring, Helen Miller and Bertha Ratzlaff; 24 grandchildren; 33 great-grandchildren; 1 great-great granddaughter; and 1 brother. The funeral was Dec. 13 in West Portal MB Church, Saskatoon, with Richard Quiring ministering.
