Obituary for Erna Schieman

Schieman; Erna (nee Lehnardt) - At Trillium Centre on Saturday June 6th, 2015 at age 95. Predeceased by her cherished husband Gerald. Fondly remembered by her loving daughters Diane Kennedy, Ellen (Bill) Beattie and Judy (Peter) Froud. Sadly missed by her grandchildren David Kennedy and Kelly (Christian) Kennedy, Daryl (LeBinh) Beattie, Ryan Beattie, Catherine (Matthew) Audley and Ian Beattie, Alex and Jessica Froud and by her great grandchildren Hannah, Ava and Kira. Erna, as an only child, immigrated at age 8 to Canada with her parents in 1928 where the small family gradually built a shoe repair business in Sudbury Ontario. She married Jerry in 1940, who carried on the business. They brought up their family in Sudbury. At age 80 she moved to Kingston to be closer to her daughters where she remained until her death. Erna will be remembered for her love of games, especially bridge and scrabble. Her cheerful positive nature brightened everyone's day. She was a devoted Lutheran throughout her life. She cherished her family above all. Erna will be fondly remembered by those who knew her. Special thank you to the caring staff of Waterford Retirement Home. A Memorial Service will be held at St Mark's Lutheran Church (263 Victoria St. Kingston, ON) on Saturday July 18, 2015 at 1:30 p.m. with a Celebration of Life to follow in the church hall at 2:00 p.m. As expressions of sympathy, donations may be made to the charity of choice in Erna's memory. Arrangements in the care of WARTMAN FUNERAL HOME "Kingston Chapel"
