Bill Braun
August 12, 1925 – September 22, 2019
Bill Braun
passed away peacefully at Luther Special Care Home in Saskatoon on Sunday,
September 22, 2019.
Dad was born
on August 12, 1925 on the family farm near Osler, Saskatchewan. His early years were spent learning to farm
and this became his life’s work. He married
Marge Dyck on October 7, 1949 and they farmed together for 26 years, raising
beef, pigs, chickens, milking cows and growing grain. In winter dad would plow yards and driveways
for neighbours. He was an avid curler
and golfer.
Dad was
always available to help out a neighbor, and served on many committees and
boards. He and mom enjoyed entertaining
friends on the farm, in their home in Saskatoon, and at the cabin.
Bill is survived by his daughters, Diana
(Ben) Buhler, Deb (Wayne) Storozuk, Barb (Glenn) Crawford; grandchildren, Scott (Candice) Buhler, Sean
(Ashley) Buhler, Chelsea (Justin) Meyers, Jessica (Jamie) Siemens, Allyce

He was predeceased by Marge, his wife
of 68 years, his mother, Sarah (Kasdorf) Braun and father, Jacob P. Braun. Also by brothers, Jake, Pete, Ike, John,
