Norma Yundt (nee Calder) of Walkerton died suddenly and peacefully, while enjoying a cup of coffee and the glorious sunshine at Trillium Court Seniors’ Community in Kincardine, Friday, Dec. 8, 2023 in her 96th year. Norma will be dearly missed by her children, Jim and his wife, Bev of Kincardine; Sandie and her husband, Doug Evans of Walkerton; Beth of Kincardine; and Tim and his partner, Lana Girodat of Neustadt. Lovingly remembered by her grandchildren, Jillene (Bryan Lusk), Kristen (Matt Willis), Greg (Cassandra), Sam and Tom; and great-grandchildren, Hank, Walt, Keeva, Beau and Jack.
She was predeceased by her loving husband of 72 years, Eldon; her parents, Donald and Elizabeth Calder; sister, Edie Calder; and two young children, Susan and Christopher. Our plucky, force-to-be-reckoned-with, Mom reminded us daily to be grateful and count our blessings. She had so much fun and laughter over the years with her dear friends and family. Her latest declaration was, "When you get the call that I've died, no tears, 'cause I've had a wonderful life!" The call came way too soon. Cheers to Mom! The family expresses deep gratitude and heartfelt thanks to the wonderful and professional staff at Trillium Court, to the many selfless volunteers who generously and lovingly give of their time, and to Dr. Gary Gurbin for his attention and care. A private family service was held at the Walkerton Cemetery. A Celebration of Life will be held in 2024. As expressions of sympathy, donations to Sleeping Children Around the World or the Walkerton Food Bank would be appreciated by the family.
