MARY ANN RUTH KURTZ
It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Mary Ann Ruth Kurtz (nee Smith) 82, at the Riverview Health Facility on June 29, 2023.
Mom was born in Winnipeg to Thomas and Molly Smith and was big sister to her brother Robert (Bob). Mom attended St. Johns High School in Winnipeg where she met the love of her life Bryan Kurtz, this year would have marked their 60th Wedding Anniversary.
Mom leaves behind her devoted husband Bryan, sons, Craig and David, grandchildren, Jackson and Cassidy (Kelowna), brother Robert (Marilyn) of White Rock, BC.
Mom was always active and loved golfing weekly with her friends at Tuxedo golf course, along with playing Bridge with her girlfriends for the last 45 years. She also enjoyed family time and entertaining her grandchildren. Nan, as they called her, loved to play pool, lawn darts and almost any game which they all enjoyed.
Mom had a strong work ethic and a zest for life, never one to shy away from a task or challenge, she was always willing to try new things. She was a loyal and devoted Wife, Mother, Grandmother, and friend to many who knew her. Today Heaven has gained another angel, Rest in Peace Mom.

Bryan, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My wife Sandra passed away on June 22, 2023 and Mary Ann passed on the day of her memorial service. Cousin, we now walk in similar footsteps. Sincerely, Ed - Posted by: Ed Kurtz (Cousin) on: Aug 18, 2023

Dear Bryan and family: Sending sincere sympathies and condolences in the passing of Mary Ann. What a lovely gracious lady she was. I am Fred's wife, and Fred and Mary Ann were first cousins. Mary Ann and Fred would often joke about Mary Ann being so much older than Fred, even though the age difference was only five years. I loved when Fred and I would visit Bryan, Mary Ann and Craig at their lovely home in Charleswood. Mary Ann loved having her children and grand-children all together at the house, and grand-children, Jackson and Cassidy were number one in Grandma's eyes. ....Love and hugs to the family. Always keep Mary Ann in your hearts. ...Marilyn Corbitt (Cousin Fred's wife). - Posted by: Marilyn Corbitt (Cousin Fred's wife) on: Jul 14, 2023
