Pauline Ann Kushner

Pauline Ann Kushner was born on May 30, 1940, in Wilkie Saskatchewan to Nicholas and Teresa Kobelsky. 

Pauline grew up on the family farm near Landis, SK with 10 brothers and sisters, it was truly a busy house!  Pauline worked at the Biggar Union Hospital as a nurse’s aide then married and farmed NE of Biggar, Saskatchewan.  Paulines garden was the envy of the community, and she was a great neighbor, always there to lend a helping hand. 

Pauline was no stranger to work…trucking grain, feeding cattle, pulling calves and having her kitchen look like a processing factory for jams, jellies, fruits and baking fresh bread daily.  Pauline welcomed two sons to the world Darren (1966) and Dale (1969) whom she loved, cherished, protected and taught the ethical value of an honest day’s work. 

Pauline retired to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where she enjoyed many days of fishing, dancing, golfing, and always socializing with friends and family and of course, attending as many garage sales as she could!  In 2019 her sons moved her to Red Deer, AB to be closer to them and her grandchildren. 

Faith was important to Pauline.  Her funeral was at the Landis Catholic Church on April 27, 2024.  

Pauline took a very active role in her grandchildren’s lives. They were the light of her life.  Pauline was a great Mom, but an even better Grandmother who knew how to spoil each grandchild in a very special way. 

Leaving behind to mourn Pauline are sons Darren and Dale (Lesia) and grandchildren Nicholas (son of Darren), Zachary (Rachel) and Jaclynn (children of Dale).  She is survived by her brothers and sisters Edith Danderfer (Andrew deceased), Bob Kobelsky (Ida), Wilma Sizer (Bruce), Jerry Kobelsky (Julie), Mildred Affleck (Gary deceased), Norm Kobelsky (Ellie), and Ken Kobelsky (Delores).  She is predeceased by her parents Nicholas and Teresa Kobelsky and twin brother Paul Kobelsky (Karen), sisters Donna Moyer (Ron deceased) and Margaret Impey (Myles).  

Pauline had a special place in her heart for her many nieces and nephews.   

Pauline will be greatly missed by many.   Arrangements entrusted to Gerein Funeral Service.
