  PENNER, Rudy Passed away peacefully on March 7, 2013, surrounded by his family, in his 82nd year. Loving husband to Judy and predeceased by his first wife Jean (nee Shoemaker). Dear father to Donna Wagler (Mike), Brenda Burek (Steve), Bob Penner (Terri) and the late Linda Penner. Beloved grandfather to 13 grandchildren; Kevin, Cindy, Amanda, Trista, Kayla, Cameron, Craig, Ryan, Justin, Aaron, Kayleigh, Nicole and Victoria and great-grandfather to Hayley and Ava. Born on May 3, 1931 in Kitchener, Ontario; Rudy was a life long member of Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Kitchener. For 60 years, he sang between the Male Jubilation Choir and the Holy Cross Male Chorus and Senior Choir. Rudy worked as an agent with State Farm Insurance for over 40 years until his retirement.
