Erwin was predeceased by his father Julius (1990), sister Ilse Kuhn (1996), mother Lydia (2000) and his mother in law Nellie Borgula in 2001. A funeral mass will be held on Friday April 12th, 2013 at 10:00 am at St. George's Ukrainian Catholic Church with Fr. Volodymyr Dmyterko officiating.

To the Kruger Family. Although we have not seen eachother in a long time, I have fond memories of your dad. Either at church, when we were all Ukranian dancing together, or when I came over to your house to play. Those memories will always be with me, as your dad's spirit will always be with you. We are deeply sorry for your loss and are thinking of you all.

Dear Dad, Barry asked me the other day,"What is my favorite memory of dad?" I thought for awhile and decided it was renovating with you.Tearing up the old kitchen in our family home with Baba and Mom.Painting with you and Frank in the house on Faulkner.You and I designing the bathroom you built for me.Building the breakfast bar in our current home.The cradle you built for my first born, your first grandchild.A gift of love to pass on from generation to generation.I loved working beside you, we worked hard and had lots of laughs.For a man with no formal training you did beautiful work.You were always a hard worker and took pride in everything your hands touched.You have passed that trait to your 3 children,that strong work ethic. I love you Daddy!Suffer no more!
