Nettie Krol
May 2, 1920- Oct 17, 2021
Nettie Krol passed peacefully at the age of 101 and a half years of age. She is predeceased by her husband Karl, and siblings Tina, Maria, Peter, Johann and Henry. She is survived by her daughter Betty (Tony) and her grandchildren Aaron and Joel and their families.
Nettie was born in Alexandrowka, Ukraine in May of 1920. In 1943, during WW2, she and her siblings fled to Poland and then Germany where she worked as a housekeeper and nanny. In 1948 she and her family joined the Great Trek and were assisted to immigrate to Canada by family sponsorship and MCC. She arrived in Watrous Saskatchewan in 1948 and married Karl in April of 1959. They moved to Winnipeg in 1964 and settled.
The family would like to thank the staff of Middlechurch Personal Care home for their kind and compassionate care.
We would like to extent our thanks also to our friends, family and Springfield Heights Mennonite Church who have supported and prayed for her over the years.
A small private gathering was held with immediate family to celebrate her life.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to MCC Canada, 134 Plaza Drive, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 5K9.
