INDEX

[N12022] Augusta Carner ... nee Dujardin
Aug. 6, 1925 - Dec. 4, 2010

Augusta Dujardin Carner, 85, passed away and now rests in the loving arms of our Lord Jesus. She married Gerald Edward Carner on September 17, 1949. She was a lifelong Mishawaka resident before moving to Columbia City, Indiana and spending the past 6 years with her daughter Denise and husband David Heckman. Augusta was the daughter of Alberic and Irene Dujardin of Mishawaka. Surviving relatives include a sister Martha (Les) Seggerman, of South Bend and two brothers Walt (Sandy) Dujardin, of Elkhorn, WI. and Bert (Vi) Dujardin of Wauesha, WI. Augusta had four children: Denise (David) Heckman of Columbia City, In; Steve Carner of Soldotna, Ak; Nancy (George) Rambo of Elkhart, IN and Ron (Nancy) Carner of St Augustine Fl. She had 13 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren. She was a loving and dedicated mother and there are no words to describe the love she had towards her family and all she knew. Augusta and her siblings loved performing music and were known as the 'Fabulous Dujardins.' Music gave them all much joy and they played at several area venues. Augusta worked for the Provincial House of Holy Cross where she was a cook and housekeeper, and as a cashier at Hook's Drug Store. However, her most important jobs were raising her children, taking care of her family and teaching them the love of Jesus. Along with making some of the best cookies, her hobbies included ceramics, baking, sewing, and decorating cakes. In addition to her parents, preceding her in death was her husband Gerald Carner, brothers James Dujardin, and Robert Dujardin and sisters Sido Whitbeck and Ida Dujardin and a great grandson Peyton Shoemaker-Bender. She will be greatly missed, but never forgotten. Her legacy will live on forever in the hearts of all who loved her. Family and friends may call on Wednesday December 8 in Hahn Funeral Home 505 W. 8th Street Mishawaka from 2:00-6:00 pm.
