KALTHOFF: Rose Mary
June 27, 1931 鈥� December 31, 2016
It is with profound sadness that the family of Rose Mary (nee Daschner) Kalthoff of Humboldt, SK, announces her sudden and unexpected death at Humboldt District Hospital, Humboldt, on Saturday, December 31, 2016. She was 85 years of age. Rose was born on June 27, 1931, to Jacob and Rose Mary (nee Krienert) Daschner at home on the family farm in the Fulda district. A few years later, the family moved to a farm in the Humboldt District. Eventually, Rose attended Manor Park School which was across the road from the Daschner farm. After completing Grade 12, she worked on the farm, and later for Emil Gasser at his drug store in Humboldt. On June 18, 1957, Rose married Leo Kalthoff at St. Augustine R.C. Church in town. Together, they lived and worked side-by-side on their Dixon area farm west of Humboldt. In 1977, Rose and Leo moved into Humboldt. They rented out the farm but maintained an active interest in it. Leo passed away on July 11, 1996. Rose continued to reside in their home, and still very much enjoyed going back to the farm to maintain the yard. Rose will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by two sisters-in-laws: Doreen Munro and Elizabeth Daschner, both of Humboldt; and by numerous nieces, nephews, and relatives of the Daschner and Kalthoff families. She was predeceased by her husband, Leo Kalthoff (July 11, 1996); parents, Jacob and Rose Mary (nee Krienert) Daschner; one sister, Ida (Ronnie) Bells; four brothers: Leo Daschner, John (Carollynn) Daschner, James Daschner, and Hugo Daschner; and by two nieces: Kim Daschner and Linda Daschner. A Private Family Graveside Service was held at St. Augustine R.C. Cemetery, Humboldt, on Tuesday, January 10, 2017, at 11:00 a.m., officiated by Fr. Greg Smith-Windsor. Others taking part were: Linda Pollries, crossbearer; Jody Hergott, soloist; Karen Daschner and Lori Hudson, urnbearers.聽 Schuler-Lefebvre Funeral Chapel, Humboldt, SK.
