ADELINE (LENA) KELM (nee DRAILICH) June 30, 1920 - August 5, 2004 With heavy hearts we announce the passing of our cherished mother, Lena, in the early morning of August 5, 2004 at the Grace General Hospital, after a courageous, lengthy battle with the complications of sugar diabetes. She was surrounded by the love and prayers of her children and the spirit of many friends. Her faith in God sustained her as she began her next journey. Lena's memory will be lovingly cherished by her children: Joyce Hamonic, Headingley; Ernie Kelm, Ottawa; Bettiann Kelm (Barry Baker), Calgary; her grandsons: Jeff (Catherine) Kelm, Ottawa; Greg Kelm, Quebec City; and their mother, Yvette Kelm, Regina. She was predeceased by her son Ken (1984); her husband, Edward (1986); and her special "son"-in-law Maurice, just three weeks ago. She was the sixth child of Bertha and Gustave Drailich. She was predeceased by her parents and her sisters, Pauline Olga Drailich and Lillian Nealy and her brothers, Alfred, Herbert, Arnold, Ernest, Harry as well as two brothers in infancy. She is survived by sisters-in-law, Hilda and Lyla Kelm, Helen Drylick and Madeline Dreilick; and brother-in-law Dan Kelm. Lena was born in Camper, MB on June 30, 1920. Lena spent her youth in Camper. We were regaled with her spirited tales of homestead life - "poor, but happy times" - the one-room school house, Christmas concerts, chores on the farm, country dances and lively house parties, all intertwined with warm memories of her family and life-long friendships. Lena married Edward Kelm in the Camper Lutheran Church on January 31, 1942. Lena and Ed began their 44 year marriage on a mixed farm near Marquette, MB where their four children were born. In 1958 the family moved to Winnipeg. Here Lena began a 20 year working career with Canada Packers and Manitoba Dairy and Poultry. Lena and Ed built the family home in 1960. Lena resided here until 2003. Our home was the centre of lively gatherings for family and friends. Visitors were always welcome and the coffee pot was always on. Lena was an independent, creative, resourceful woman with a deep inner strength. She sewed, knitted, embroidered, crocheted, gardened, cooked, baked, canned and was handy with a paint brush, saw and hammer. Lena loved to travel and visit family and friends. She enjoyed trips within Canada, to Hawaii, Barbados and Europe. Lena was a member of the First English Lutheran Church. Here she made special, supportive friends with whom she enjoyed many years of socializing. Lena has left us with a legacy of inner strength, perseverance, warmth and love. Her memory and teachings will guide us and will live on in our hearts forever. "She whom we love and lose is no longer where she was before. She is now wherever we are." St. John Chrysostom Funeral Liturgy and interment will be held on Monday, August 9 at 3:00 p.m. at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Ave. with Pastor W. Lehman officiating.

LOUISE KERNATZ
August 07, 2004
LOUISE KERNATZ Louise Kernatz died Wednesday, August 4, 2004, after a fierce seven-month battle with cancer. She was surrounded by the love and presence of her family. Louise is survived by her husband of 37 years and best friend, Leon Pewarchuk; son and daughter-in-law Colin and Maria Pewarchuk, and her heart's delight, granddaughter Isabella Louise; daughter Kristen Pewarchuk and Gerhard Peters; her mother Edna Genyk; her three sisters, their husbands and children, Donna-Mae and Ed Burgener, Darren and Bruna Burgener and Adam Burgener and Megan Kelly; Gloria-Jean and Ed Pitts, Jeffrey and Heather Pitts and Jeremiah Pitts; Susan Kernatz and Blaine Massie, Erica and Andrew. Louise was born in Brandon, MB, on February 24, 1942. She grew up in East Kildonan and started her first career after university as a chemist. She had, however, a lifelong talent and passion for children and learning, and this led her to a career as an inner-city school teacher with the Winnipeg School Division. She was devoted to her students. She became involved with the Winnipeg Teachers' Association (WTA) to make a difference and to improve "The System." Louise served on and chaired many WTA committees, became the president of the WTA and earned its highest award, The Distinguished Service Award. Louise retired with Leon in June 1998 and together they built their dream home overlooking the Assiniboine River near Treherne, MB. She quickly became a part of her rural community. Louise and Leon's home was always an inviting oasis for all of her family, friends and neighbours. Above all, Louise had an unquenching curiosity about the world around her. She was a naturalist, gardener, outdoor explorer, birder, hiker, and was very passionate about natural prairie preservation. Louise loved her cottage at Caliper Lake, ON, and its setting in the Pre-Cambrian Shield. She had a keen interest in early Canadian history and particularly the explorers. From childhood, she shone as a natural leader. She understood the importance of ideas, of exploring them, and of sharing them with others. Louise's ever-present smile, warmth and generosity drew people to her. There will be a farewell service to celebrate her life on Wednesday, August 11 at 1:30 p.m. at The Caboto Centre, 1055 Wilkes Ave., Winnipeg, MB. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Louise's memory to either of her two favourite charities: World Vision Canada, One World Dr., Mississauga, ON L5T 2Y4, (866-595-5550), or the CancerCare Manitoba Foundation, 675 McDermot Ave., Room ON 1160, Winnipeg, MB R3E 0V9, (204-787-4143). Louise's family would like to thank Dr. Lotocki and his team.
