Rose Marie (Stolz) Knorr

It is with great sorrow that the family of Rose Knorr announces her passing on Sept 21, 2021 at the age of 90 in LTC at the Kerrobert Hospital.

Rose was born in the Kerrobert, Sask at the local hospital on May 26, 1931 to Joe and Regina (Yochim) Stolz.  She was the 6th out of 10 children.  Rose married Adam D. Knorr in 1950 and they began farming between Kerrobert and Luseland where they raised 9 children and any child in need.  We could always find our Mom by using our ears as she was always singing while she did her chores like milking cows, gardening and cooking for family and friends. 

Adam and Rose moved to Kerrobert in 1974 where she then began her career as a cook at the Buena Vista Lodge until she retired.  Residents and staff would enjoy the best homemade soups and buns, baking and meals.

After Adam’s passing, early in life, Rose met up with her a childhood friend Casper Schell and spent many years together enjoying family, friends and great food.

Rose is predeceased by her husband Adam D. Knorr, daughter Debra Ann, son-in-law Edmund Martin and companion Casper Schell.  Survived by her children Eugene (Victoria), Shirley Martin (Bill), Lyall (Gloria), Sharon Huckabay (Ron), Danny (Carol), Kevin (Laurie), Jackie McNichol (Rick), Regan (Char), chosen brother Melfort (Linda) Weinmeyer and 24 grandchildren, 45 great grandchildren.  She is survived by three sisters, two brothers and numerous nephews and nieces.

The family would like to thank Dr. Wentzel, nursing staff and her wondrous care staff for the heartwarming diligent care for our mom.

The funeral will be held on Monday Sept 27, 2021 at 2 pm at the Our Lady Assumption Kerrobert Catholic church.  The viewing will start at 1:00 pm.

In lieu of flowers please donation to the KLD Wellness Foundation at the Kerrobert Town Office dedicated to the Activities Department at KIHCF.
