KAETHE SCHROEDER February 7, 1929 - January 8, 2015 After a long full life, Kaethe passed away peacefully at Bethania Mennonite Personal Care Home. Kaethe was predeceased by her parents, Peter and Olga Rempel, her loving husband, John Schroeder and son, John Schroeder Jr. Her memory will be held close and dear by her surviving sister, Irma Penner of BC, son Rick Schroeder, and her many nieces, nephews, grandchildren, relatives and friends. Kaethe was born in the Ukraine and immigrated to Canada in 1948 with her mother and sister. Her father was reunited with the family in Winnipeg 19 years later.
