Horkoff, Adeline Elizabeth - September 3, 1953 – October7, 2022, after a short battle with cancer, Adeline passed away at the age of 69 years, at Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon with her family by her side.
Adeline was born the 4th of 12 children, to Karl and Mary Stein (nee Petryk) at the Preeceville Hospital. After completing her elementary schooling in a school just outside of Hazel Dell, she continued her education at the Sturgis High School where she graduated from grade twelve. After this, she went on to Saskatoon to complete a course at the Kelsey Institute of Applied Arts and Sciences in Food Services Management Technology. After graduation, Adeline worked at several jobs cooking in restaurants in Saskatoon. Her final job in the city was at Smitty’s Restaurant in the MidTown Mall. She met Danny Horkoff at a wedding in Kamsack, where she moved shortly after. Adeline and Danny were married on July 30th 1977. She moved to the farm where in 1980 they were blessed with their first daughter, Lindsay. In 1982 Kurtis was born and in 1984 Shaina arrived. After raising her children for a few years, she got a job in Eaglestone Lodge and cooked there for eight years. Adeline quit her job and went back to work on the farm to help her husband. She enjoyed gardening and looking after her fishpond. Adeline enjoyed cooking and treating friends and family to her tasty meals. One would never leave the house without having a cup of coffee or a snack. She enjoyed sewing, working at different crafts and took much pride in looking after the yard. It had to be perfect. She loved visiting her family in Hazel Dell and neighbours and friends in the district. Lindsay and Shaina meant the world to her and she visited them as often as possible.
Adeline and Danny traveled to several beautiful places; Dominican Republic, Florida, Cuba, Hawaii and on a cruise ship to Mexico. She also traveled to Europe with her sister, brother-in-law and niece. The most memorable trip was to Lindsay’s wedding in the Dominican Republic.
Adeline never forgot any family birthdays and Christmas was her favourite holiday of the year. She made sure to give her birthday wishes by phoning or sending a card.
She leaves to cherish her memory; her loving husband Danny, daughters; Lindsay (Trevor) Westlake, Shaina Horkoff (Philip Magee), mother Mary Stein, brothers; Jim Stein, Richard (Sonia) Stein, Mike Stein, sisters; Dolly Trohak, Margaret (Gus) Mansuy, Patricia Way, Elsie (George) Bihun, Brenda Stein, Nancy (Wade) Fisher, Wendy Stein, Cindy Stein and many nieces and nephews. Adeline is predeceased by her son Kurtis in infancy, father Karl Stein and brother-in-laws Jim Trohak and Timothy Way and by father-in-law George Horkoff and mother-in-law Mildred Horkoff.
