Caroline Adelheid (née Kohnle) Becker
August 19, 1933 – February 19, 2025
Caroline Adelheid (née Kohnle) Becker was born in Willmont, Saskatchewan on August 19, 1933, and grew up in the Willmont District. She was the second of four children, one of which died in infancy. In 1952, she met the love of her life, Mike Becker and they were married on August 3, 1953. The couple was blessed with seven children, four daughters and three sons, however, two of the triplets, a daughter and a son, died in infancy. In 1955, Caroline and Mike moved to Fulda, where they bought and operated the hotel for the next 29 years until they retired. In 1998, they moved to Humboldt, and Caroline continued to live in her home until March of 2024 when she suffered a stroke. Caroline then moved to Quill Plains Centennial Lodge in Watson for a month until settling into St. Mary’s Villa in Humboldt where she resided until her passing. In her leisure time Caroline loved to play cards, do puzzles and had a large garden for many years. She loved the Toronto Blue Jays and watching curling. By far her favorite thing was having her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren come to visit her. She was a home body and loved to be at home but really enjoyed when people would come to visit her.
