Eunice was born on the Libke family farm south of Dundurn on Dec. 21, 1914. She married Gordon Wunsch in 1943. They resided in Hanley and farmed until Gordon passed away suddenly in 1982. Eunice continued to live in their home in Hanley until the fall of 2006. Because of poor health, she moved to a special care facility in Saskatoon. Eunice loved curling and cooking for her family and friends (grandma cookies were her specialty!) and looking after and being around her four granddaughters who she was so proud of.
