Eugene was predeceased by her parents, August and Emelie Marks (Germany); husband, Manfred; daughter, Edeltraut; grandson, Vaughn Schulz; sisters, Leni Marks (Germany) and Erma Marks (Germany); brothers, Horst Marks (Germany) and Paul Marks (Inuvik NT).

Eugene is survived by her sons Horst Schulz (Aline) of Albertville, SK and Hanz Schulz (Johanne) of Martintown, ON; her son in law, Ed Katzenberger; grandchildren: Robert Hainstock (Ali) of Martensville, SK, Raymond Hainstock (Jacquie) of Vancouver, BC, Mark Schulz (Loralie) of Fernie, BC, Deanne Schulz (Chad) of Hudson Bay, SK, Luc Schulz of Ottawa, ON, Axel Schulz (Agnes) of Ottawa, ON, Pomeline Schulz (Josahia) of Ottawa, ON; as well as three great grandchildren and six great great grandchildren.

Eugene immigrated in 1954 to Canada with Manfred, two children in tow and one on the way. They moved directly to Prince Albert, SK. Eugene was a domestic engineer (homemaker).  Eugene was talented and could handle six tasks at once.  She tried working out of the house but enjoyed the freedom of being “the boss” at home better.  She was an excellent seamstress, cook, and household financier.  She was the glue that held the family together.  Eugene loved socializing, camping and fishing.  At socials, Eugene and Manfred would “cut the rug” (dance) until the music stopped.  Her favourite campsites were Waskesiu Narrows and later Sandy Lake in the Prince Albert National Park.  Much of her summers were spent at Sandy Lake.  Eugene developed Alzheimer’s in her later years which gave Sandy Lake’s fish population time to recover.

As per Eugene’s request, no funeral service will be held.  Condolences may be sent to the family at www.grays.ca. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Gray's Funeral Chapel, (306) 922-4729.
