Christa Kaminski

By Sun Advocate

PRICE – Our loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, Christa Kaminski, 80, passed away January 8, 2015 at home after a three-week battle with health problems.
She was born April 9, 1934 in Ludwigslust, Germany to Walter and Lucie Beckmann Seyer.
On November 19, 1957, she married Egon E. Kaminski in Cologne, Germany and shortly thereafter she came to the United States. While residing in Germany, Christa attended a Commercial Art Trade School. After sharing 44 years of marriage, Egon passed away on September 3, 2001.
Christa was a longtime resident of Price and a member of Ascension St. Matthews Church.
She was a tireless worker who warmed the hearts of many while working in advertising at the Sun Advocate for 40+ years.
She had many dear friends in the downtown community and for years she owned and operated her own business. Christa enjoyed putting her artistic talents to use by painting and designing posters and banners, and decorating many local storefront windows.
Christa was a member and co-founder of the “German Club” where she enjoyed the wonderful relationships that she shared with her lady friends. This was a very important part of her life and the memories they shared will be cherished forever. She was an excellent cook who loved baking and making special birthday cakes for her family and friends. Her children were her number one priority and the grandkids were her pride and joy. Christa will be remembered for her elegant style and dedication to others.
She is survived by her children, Fred (Sandy) Kaminski, Duchsene, Monica Williams, South Jordan, Doris (Ronnie) Johnston, Price; sisters, Karin (Werner) Peters, Gundi (Hans) Wirtz, both of Germany; four grandchildren, Caitlyn Johnston, Christian Johnston, Colton Johnston, all of Price; Nicholas Williams, South Jordan; her German Club Sisters and Sun Advocate Family, and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
She is preceded in death by her parents, husband, Egon; and sister, Ingrid Kuchemeister.
