PFANNENSCHMIDT, (Marlene) Magdalena Klara (nee Proske) It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our Mom and Omi on December 11, 2005. She joins her beloved Ernie in eternal peace. Born in Arnoldsdorf, Germany (Poland) on February 23rd, 1928 and followed her husband to Canada in 1952. She leaves behind sons, Bob (Jane), Peter (Colleen); daughters, Judit Gosling and Angela Burns (Alan); grandchildren, Karin (Dallas), Robert, Blake, Vanessa, Mara, Alison, Chelsea and Larissa; also a greatgranddaughter, KD. She had a passion for life and lived it well even though she endured several health issues. Mom was known for her fabulous gardens, for her love of children and joy of fishing. Her talents were many and she shared and gave of them often. Truly a very caring woman, her heart and home were always open, as many foster children will say. She is greatly loved and will be sadly missed. Please join us for a Celebration of Life in honor of Mom on Saturday, January 21, 2006 at 2:00 p.m., at the Victoria Edelweiss Club, 108 Niagara Street. Donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated. Condolences may be offered to the family at
