Konrad HADERLEIN Obituary
Feb 25, 1932 - May 14, 2012
It is with sadness that the family of Konrad Haderlein announce his passing. He will be missed by his wife Marianne, his son Lenz (Angela) his grandchildren Hannah and Isabel, his brothers and sisters in Germany and the Vangool family. Konrad was born in Berlin, Germany and started his schooling there. He was very proud of the fact that as a young boy he sang in the Berlin Cathedral Boys Choir. He attended the Gymnasium Kulmbach and majored in philosophy at the Friedrich Alexander Universität Erlangen- Nürnberg. In 1959 he moved to Canada where he received an MA and a Ph.D in comparative literature from the University of Alberta. Konrad taught at the University of Saskatchewan for 35 years until his retirement in 1999. He was a Professor Emeritus of Languages and Linguistics at the University of Saskatchewan. His was a life of learning and acquiring knowledge. He was both a scholar and a poet and published several volumes of poetry and scholarly works. Konrad had a great sense of humor and a strong love for his family. A service to remember Konrad will be held on Friday, May 25 at 1.00 pm at the Church in Eagle Creek Regional Park located on Highway 376, 25 km north of the junction with Highway 14. Interment will take place at the Wheatfield Cemetery by Kinley. In lieu of flowers a donation to Saskatoon City Hospital Foundation,
www.saskatooncityhospitalfoundation.com, would be appreciated. Arrangements in care of.

Please accept these belated condolences on Konrad's death - I just read about it in the University of Alberta Alumni Magazine "New Trail". Konrad's and my ways crossed at the UofA where I was employed from 1963-1974 as a professor of Russian. I fondly remember our many debates!

Marianne, Lenz, and family.
Sadly, I was not aware of Konrad's passing until the Globe and Mail article in today's paper. Oddly, I told my wife a story about Konrad just last Saturday.
Knowing Konrad meant lots of good stories. I cannot watch a bride walk down an aisle without replaying in my mind Konrad's rendition of Marianne's walk down the aisle. I cannot drink white wine without recalling Konrad and I cleaning out a liquor board store of a certain rarely found label (he gave me a two bottle finder's fee). And I cannot eat curried chicken without thinking of the gourmet who prepared my first meal with currie.
But mostly I remember our conversations and sometimes heated debates. I loved those.
My condolences to you on this loss.
