Obituary of Margaret Klassen

On Saturday, March 16, 2024, Margaret Klassen (nee Kroeker) passed away peacefully at the age of 91 following a lengthy stay in hospital. Fourth of eleven children, Margaret was born in Neuendorf, Ukraine on February 11, 1933. She emigrated to Paraguay in 1948, eventually coming to Canada in 1959 where she married and settled in the Burlington/Hamilton area. Margaret will be remembered for her strong work ethic, her independence, and her dry sense of humour that you never saw coming. Margaret is survived by her children William and John (Christine), and grandson Ben.
