Kunibalda was born into a mining family in Bottrop. She spent her childhood with her thirteen siblings, first in the Ruhr area and then in Legden near Ahaus from 1950 onwards. The family was characterized by a deep Christian faith and active involvement in the Catholic Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After finishing school, she helped her mother with the housework and earned money working on a farm before joining as the staff at Ahaus Hospital. She then joined our congregation in Muenster and was named Sister M. Kunibalda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following her nursing exams, she worked on a men&#8217;s internal medicine ward in Waltrop, in an intensive care unit in Gladbeck, and on another men&#8217;s ward in Wadersloh. In Kamp-Lintfort, she gained proficiency in ECG examinations. She then spent 38 years at Elisabeth Hospital in Meerbusch-Lank: 20 years in the ECG department, followed by a period in charge of the Sisters department. When the convent was dissolved in 2020, she moved to Nordwalde, where she spent her final days lovingly cared for by her fellow Sisters, the staff and her niece, who visited her on the day she died.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sister M. Kunibalda was a great devotee of the Virgin Mary. She often entrusted herself to the Mother of God and loved praying to her. The months of May and October, traditionally associated with the rosary, were particularly precious to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We gratefully bid farewell to Sister M. Kunibalda. We remain united with her through sisterly love and the celebration of the Eucharist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3a88641f wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-right is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-bf881693 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/generalat-hsosf.de\/ordensgemeinschaft\/in-memoriam\/\">Zur \u00dcbersicht<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Memoriam Sister M.
