It is with great sadness that the family of Kathleen Mary McClean (Cline), announce her passing on August 17, 2025, at the age of 91.

Kathleen was born on October 18, 1933, at Zelma Saskatchewan, where she was raised on the family farm near Zelma with her nine siblings.

At the age of 14 she went to live with her older sister Anne and husband Lloyd so she could continue her education. Kathleen graduated at the age of 16 and stayed with Anne and Lloyd to help with their young family until she moved to Saskatoon and began work at Kresge’s, eventually moving to the Royal Bank.

It was at this time that she met the love of her life Harvey McClean and they were married in 1954. Moving to the farm south of Robinhood, they worked hard to maintain the farm, planting a huge garden and raising Wayne, Ron, Dave, Faye and Marion.

In 1973 Kathleen and Harvey purchased a new farm north of Robinhood and here they welcomed the completion of their family with the birth of Bernie in 1976.

In 1979 Kay decided it was time for her to return to the workforce and purchased the Frontier Café in Glaslyn. In 1987 Kay decided to add to her business ventures and started the Curosity Shop, keeping her working many hours, and allowing her to employ many grandchildren and young people from the area.

Kathleen finally retired at the age of 73. Kay and Harvey moved to the Schwartz Villa, Shell Lake, SK, until their passing.
