With her family by her side she left us to be with her Lord on October 10, 2001 at the Neepawa Hospital at the age of 94 years, 3 months, and 17 days. Maria was the third child of Edward and Amelia Wutzke. She was born in Steinbach, MB on June 23, 1907. She was baptized and confirmed into the Lutheran faith. She was a life long member of Christ Lutheran Church in Waldersee, MB. She was also a member of the E.L.W. Maria was predeceased by her loving husband Henry in 1985; parents Edward and Amelia Wutzke; four sisters, two brothers, and a half-brother, two sons-in-law, and three grandchildren.
