Karen Moormann
February 22, 1950 – January 24, 2017

It is with profound sadness that the family of Karen Anne (nee Feltin) Moormann of Humboldt, SK, (formerly of Fulda, SK) announces her peaceful passing at the Humboldt District Hospital on Tuesday, January 24, 2017 after a courageous battle with cancer.  She was 66 years of age.  Karen, the youngest child of Joseph and Mary (nee Duerr) Feltin was born on February 22, 1950 at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, Humboldt, SK.  She grew up on the family farm in the Dixon District, attended Dixon Elementary School and completed her grade ten at Humboldt High School.  Karen met Jim Moormann at a very young age, and they were married on March 28, 1967 at Humboldt, SK.  They resided on the Moormann farm by Fulda until October, 2016.  Together, they lived, worked and raised their family on the Fulda area farm.  In the mid 90’s, Karen went back to school and completed her high school, as well as getting her Home Care Special Care Aide Certificate.  Karen worked for Humboldt Home Care for 12 years.  She was an excellent gardener, always planting enough to feed the entire community.  Karen was also an amazing baker, with bread, buns and pies being her specialty.  You could show up at any time and she could always bring out delicious treats from her freezer.  Karen was a very hard working farm  wife, she raised two children, hauled many, many meals out to the field, gardened, volunteered in her community, and participated in various endeavors over the years such as cooking, macramé, crochet, and ceramic classes.  She loved talking on the phone with her family and friends, searching the weekly flyers for the best deals, swapping recipes, and also playing a good game of Kaiser.  Jim and Karen also loved to travel; they went to many beautiful destinations including Thailand, Australia, Florida, Mexico, Alaska, and all over Canada.  More than anything Karen’s family meant the world to her.  Karen will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by her husband of almost 50 years, Jim Moormann; one daughter, Monique (Todd) Brown of Calgary, AB; two grandchildren, Brayden and Mariah; one sister, Doreen Munro of Humboldt; two brothers: Joseph (Ramona) Feltin of Fort MacLeod, AB, and Kenneth (Susan) Feltin of White City, SK; brother-in-law, Nap Boutin of Humboldt; and many nieces and nephews.  Karen was predeceased by her son Ross (2006); her parents, Joseph and Mary (nee Duerr) Feltin; two sisters:  Lucy Schlosser and Virginia Hergott; one brother, Ron Feltin; two sisters-in-law:  Valerie Grieman-Boutin and Sheila Berscheid; four brothers-in-law:  Hugo Daschner, Wilfred Hergott, John Grieman and Lawrence Berscheid; three nieces: Linda and Kim Daschner and Wanda Feltin; one nephew, Kevin J. Grieman; and numerous other relatives.  A celebration of life will be held at a later date.  Memorial donations may be directed to the Humboldt District Hospital, Palliative Care Unit.  At this time, the family would like to thank Dr. Agrawal and Marg Kindrachuk (Karen’s oncologist and oncology nurse); Dr. Moola and all of the wonderful nurses and staff at the Humboldt District Hospital; and to all of our family and friends for your love and support during this difficult time.
