  • Notes 
    • SCHNURR, Corrine Virginia (1940 - 2012) After a long debilitating struggle with Lewy Body dementia and Parkinson's, Corrine is finally at peace. She took her last breath at Pinehaven Nursing Home on April 14, 2012 at the age of 71. She joined the School Sisters of Notre Dame at a very young age and taught at many different schools in the area, but her most fulfilling time was when she went to the Missions in Peru. After much soul searching, Corrine left the convent after 25 years and undertook the huge task of going back to school to become a Registered Massage Therapist. Anyone who had the opportunity to have her healing hands massage them, can attest to how great she was at her chosen profession. Loving sister of Therese Hummel, Kitchener, Patricia Hummel (Tom), Waterloo, Raymond Schnurr (Cheryl), Kitchener, Edward Schnurr (Margaret), Kitchener and David Schnurr (Joyce), Damascus and brother-in-law Ken Stemmler (Shirley). Dear aunt and great-aunt to several nieces and nephews. She will be greatly missed by her very good friend Marlene Waechter de Carrion. Predeceased by her parents Marie (Dorscht) (2011) and Harold Schnurr (1999), sister Marlene Stemmler (1983) and brother-in-law Irvin Hummel (1998). Special thanks to all the dedicated staff at Pinehaven who were so patient, loving and kind to Corrine, especially Barb Friesen. Corrine's family will receive relatives and friends at the Henry Walser Funeral Home , 507 Frederick St., Kitchener, 519-749-8467 on Tuesday from 7-9 p.m. Cremation has taken place and a celebration of her life will be held in the chapel on Wednesday, April 18, 2012 at 11: 00 a.m. with Rev. Jack Paleczny officiating with a reception to follow at the funeral home. As expressions of sympathy, donations to Movement Disorders Research & Rehabilitation Centre or Parkinson Society would be appreciated by the family (cards available at the funeral home).
