Obituary
GUNTER OSWALD KOCI
July 13, 1928 – June 30, 2022
With heavy hearts we sadly announce the passing of Gunter Oswald Koci of Blairmore, Alberta. He passed away peacefully at home on June 30, 2022 at the young age of 93, just two weeks before his birthday.
Gunter was born in 1928 and raised in Duisburg, Germany where he completed and earned his Pâtissier and Baker Red Seal Certification. Then he and his brother Franz immigrated to Canada in 1951.
Gunter became a well-known baker in the Crowsnest Pass. He opened the Cookie Box Bakery in 1956 and for 36 years baked European inspired breads, pastries and cakes.
We will especially miss the special baking he would make with love just for his family.
In 1961 he married Doris, the girl of his dreams. Together they raised 3 wonderful children. In 1993 Gunter and Doris retired and enjoyed many years traveling the world.
Gunter was world-renowned for his story telling about how it used to be, his amazing adventures, not holding back his opinion and telling it like it is. But his last story was “I was born; I blinked; and it was over. So, in the end, remember… do your best, do what you like, and make something amazing out of your life.”
Gunter Oswald Koci was predeceased by his parents, Joseph and Selma Koci; brother Franz (Betty) Koci; and his loving wife, Dorothea Koci. He is survived by his children Helga (Steve), Peter (Teresa) and Gunther (Gianne); grandchildren: Michael (Jessy), Andrea, Nelson, Alex, Amanda, Shelby (Tanner), Kynan, and Viell; and great grandchildren.
At Gunter’s request, there will be no funeral service. Well-wishers are encouraged to have a slice of Black Forest Cake or a Vanilla Slice or just a good donut and enjoy it in his honor.
