Kunstman, Margaret Mary (nee Voster)
Appleton

In her 82 years on this earth, Margaret was all a woman could be: She was a daughter to the late Joseph and Nellie (VanAsten) Vosters and a sister to her 12 siblings: Catherine, Walter, Louis, Larry, John, Norbert, Butch, Dorothy, Dolores, Joe, Tom and Leo, growing up in Little Chute, and was preceded in death by all of her older siblings.

On August 20, 1949, she became the wife of Ken Kunstman, daughter-in-law to Rudy and Elsie, and sister-in-law to Ken’s two sisters, Eileen and Elaine. She was an adventurer with her husband Ken – traveling around the world, as well as camping throughout Wisconsin, and spent retirement time with Ken and family at their cottage on Legend Lake. She was a great friend to her bridge playing buddies and a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church Choir.

For over 30 years, Margaret was Ken’s business partner at KenMar Photography, Appleton. The couple enjoyed 49 years together until Ken’s death in 1999.

She was mom to Mark (Kathy), Todd (Debbie), Timm (Loise), and Jann (Mike); Nana to Shannon, Chris, Sarah, Zack, Emma, Emily, Mitchel, and Ellie; and great-grandma to Flynn, Henry, Paige and Chase. She was Aunt Margaret to numerous nieces and nephews many of whom still gather, and will now miss her, at annual family reunions.

She was a good neighbor to those near her home on Oneida Street, Appleton, and formed an instant bond with everyone she met.

She was easy to love and hard to forget and her spirit lives on in all the lives she touched. Please visit with all those who love her at Brettschneider-Trettin-Lederer Funeral Chapel on Sunday, April 5, 2009, from 3-5 p.m., and at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 414 W. Lawrence St., Appleton, on Monday, April 6, 2009, from 9:30 a.m., and attend a Mass of Resurrection which will be celebrated at 10:30 a.m. Instead of flowers, a memorial fund has been established.

The family would like to express a special thank you to the staff at Peabody Manor and to Jean Funk for the extraordinary care shown to Margaret.
