Obituary for Mary Ann Schwarz
Print
Schwarz, Mary Ann;
Born May 9th 1929, passed away suddenly on October 17th 2019, having lived a full and diverse life.
She excelled at cooking, baking, sewing and the domestic arts. She enjoyed many crafts including ceramics and did copious amounts of needlework, eager to teach anyone who was willing to learn.
An avid gardener, she shared her passion for gardening with her husband Mat, for which they were honoured with an award of Merit from the City of Kitchener.
Her greatest pride and achievement however, was her family, who like her garden, grew and flourished.
Mary is survived by her 3 children, 6 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren.
They are;
Her son, Wilchelm Schwarz, his wife Maya and their four children, Adrienne Joosse, Katrina Matthew, Tanja Hall and Conan Schwarz, and their families.
Her daughter, Rosemarie Noble and her husband Don Noble.
Her daughter Tina Payton and her sons Donovan and Jameson.
We grieve Mary's passing, but are comforted by the fact that she journeys to rejoin those beloved friends and family members, (both two and four footed), who have gone before her.
Her husband Mathias, her parents, Adam and Elizabeth Schwarz and her brother Willy await her, to share happy memories and to watch over us.
Mary's family will receive relatives and friends from 3:00 p.m. – 3:45 p.m. on Sunday, November 3, 2019 at the Henry Walser Funeral Home, 507 Frederick Street, Kitchener, 519-749-8467. A brief chapel service will be held at 4:00 p.m., followed by a small reception and tea.
As expressions of sympathy, donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Canada would be appreciated by the family (cards available at the funeral home).
