Lorna Dunn

DUNN - It is with great sadness that, the family of Lorna Annamae Dunn, announces her passing on Sunday, May 7th, 2023 at the age of 90 years.

Lorna Annamae Dunn, age 90, of Kindersley Saskatchewan passed away at Glengarda Hospice, Saskatoon where she was being cared for due to cancer.

Lorna was born on July 15, 1932 in rural Saskatchewan to Vera (Campbell) and Covey Martin. Lorna was predeceased by Kenneth Dunn and grandson Covy Holland. She is survived by Wendy Dunn, Dennis (Barb) Dunn, Ken (Marlene) Dunn and Ellen (Tom) Cox, Coreen (Scott) St. John and Jay (Jen) Dunn grandmother of 20 and great-grandmother of 23.

After graduation at high school Lorna was a receptionist at the Kindersley Union Hospital. Lorna married Ken Dunn at the age of 18 on August 6, 1951. Their first house was above Ken‘s brothers on the farm where they started their family. An old school house was moved on the home quarter and remodelled into a loving family home that still stands today. Lorna and Ken’s giving of themselves to family and community was an endless well of offering and caregiving. Lorna carried this tradition of acceptance on, until her final day on earth. Lorna was more concerned about her caregivers than her own welfare. Lorna’s sense of community saw her working diligently at the United Church in all aspects. She served on the board, helped with all events and baked goods for every special celebration. Lorna was President of her condo board.

A memorial service was held for Lorna on Monday, May 15th, 2023 at St. Pauls United Church in Kindersley at 1:00 p.m. with The Rev. Piotr Strzelecki officiating.  The service recording can be viewed at https://www.facebook.com/StPaulsKindersley
