Wanda Josephine Kushnir

Wanda Josephine Kushnir passed on to her heavenly home at the age of 88 on March 14, 2007, after a brief illness. Wanda was born in Detroit, Michigan on June 22, 1918, the sixth of seven children born to Antoni and Jozefa Studzinski who had emigrated to the United States from Poland five years earlier. She was employed by Burroughs Corporation from 1953 until she retired in 1981, at which time she moved to Temple where she resided until her passing. For the past fifteen years, Wanda was active at Temple Bible Church. She was a true servant of the Lord who found her greatest joy and fulfillment through tireless and faithful service to others. She was preceded in death by her husband, Peter Kushnir, and brothers Ted, Tony, and Bill, and sisters Anna and Irene. She is survived by her brother Phil Dane of Las Vegas, NV; daughter, Lana Dyck of Belton; son and daughter-in-law Bill and Pat Kushnir of Plano; son David Kushnir of Lakeland, Florida; grandchildren Bill and wife Amy Kushnir of Flower Mound, Christa and husband Glenn Klimchuk of Houston, Lauren and husband Eric Fisher of San Antonio, Jon and wife Lauren Dyck of Coronado, Panama, and Paul and wife Jennifer Dyck of Alexandria, VA; eight great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. Honoring her wishes, her remains were cremated immediately after her death. A celebration of her life will be held in the sanctuary of Temple Bible Church at a later date. The family would especially like to thank the staff of Scott and White Hospice for their care and her Temple Bible Church family for their daily visits and prayers which provided comfort not only to Wanda but her entire family. Memorials may be made to Temple Bible Church, 3205 Oakview Drive, Temple, TX 76502.
