CALUMET Emil A. Kinnunen, 88, passed away on Wednesday, January 13, 2021, of natural causes. As he would probably say, from being an old feller.
Emil was predeceased by his parents, Henry and Anna, his brothers Uno, Wayne, Edward, Wilho, and Donald, his sisters Hilda, Ailie, and Senia and his wife, and favorite tool passer of 55 years, Phyllis.
Those who knew Emil, knew of him as a kind, soft spoken and respectful person. He was never one to talk over another but often chose to listen rather than speak. Unless it was about something old, like snowmobiles, tractors, vehicles, bottles, or local history. Then, he led many lively and entertaining conversations.
