Gerald Murvin Erbach passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, September 29, 2024, at the age of 78 years.
Gerald was born in Neudorf, SK, on November 23, 1945, to Phillip and Eda (Geistlinger) Erbach. He was one of seven siblings and the youngest of the five brothers. Gerald grew up on the family farm outside of Neudorf and was a great help to both his parents. He even learned to cook and bake when his own mother was ill and was unable to complete some of those duties.
In 1964, Gerald met Kathryn, the love of his life, and the two have been inseparable since they met. They were married in November of 1966 in Neudorf and moved to take over the family farm from Phillip. They welcomed two daughters, Ann and Daphne, in the next two years after moving to the farm and their last daughter, Alexis, would be born 11 years later. Gerald and Kathryn continued to farm until 2007, and it was a bittersweet day when they retired. They continued to reside at the farm, only moving to town 13 short years ago in 2011.
Gerald’s love for his family and friends was never-ending. There were always great parties and many laughs at the kitchen table over drinks and cards. Many nights were spent crop checking, even when it was dark outside. Anyone who attended a barn dance at the farm will never forget the hospitality and the good time had by all. Gerald was a gentle, kind person who would help anyone in need, whether it be friends or strangers who stopped by the yard.
Gerald leaves to mourn his passing his loving wife of 57 years, Kathryn; his daughters, Ann (Andy), Daphne (Charles) and Alexis (Chris); his grandchildren, Nathan, Paige, James, Ashley, Violet and Fiona, as well as his great-grandchildren, Noah, Gabriel and Addalyn; his siblings, Les (Louise), Ron (Cheryl), Lloyd (Jean), Vangy, Louise (Larry); his sister-in-law, Eleanor; as well as many friends. He was predeceased by his parents, Phillip and Eda; brother Stanley; brother-in-law Gordon; sister-in-law Joyce Sandor; brothers-in-law Steve Kayto and Steven Sandor; niece Janelle; nephew Shaun Kaytor; and many friends.
A funeral will be held on October 5, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. at Christ Lutheran Church in Neudorf, SK. Interment will directly follow at the Baber Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, those wishing to may make a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or a charity of their choice.
