Hans Heinrich Nissen Christian Lass – Feb 7, 1929 – November 15, 2023
Hazel Joyce Hewitt Lass – April 6, 1934 – November 16, 2023
After 71 years of marriage, working daily by each other’s side to raise a family and build a thriving dairy farm, Hans and Joyce have continued their journey together. Passing peacefully at their home in the Nithview Community they were surrounded by family and cared for by the wonderful Nithview staff. Hans and Joyce passed within 1 day of each other.
Hans was known as a very progressive dairy farmer embarking on innovative farming practices. He and Joyce worked hard to improve their dairy business and became respected members of the farming community. He continued to grow and build his farming business into the 70’s and 80’s to include his 2 sons.
After (semi) retirement Hans enjoyed volunteering at various charities. He also worked for a time for Hybrid Turkeys. He was a member and former president of the New Hamburg Lion’s Club and received recognition as the Senior Volunteer of the Year in 2007. Hans delivered meals on wheels to the elderly and shut in and drove for Community Care Concepts. In his spare time he curled and was an avid downhill and water skier. He was also a member of Baden Masonic Lodge. Many will remember Han’s smiling face and enthusiasm for life. He always had a kind word for everyone.
Joyce was an astute business woman, farmer and also a traditional farmer’s wife. She provided a beautiful and organized home, she also created beauty in her gardens, home décor and had the sewing skills to create dozens of beautiful quilts as gifts for family. Joyce was a faithful member of the Trinity Lutheran Church and sang in the choir for many years. She was a voracious reader and patron of the local library – always interested in current events and deeper discussions. She was always interested in education and for 6 years worked as an Education Assistant at Baden School. Joyce was a life-long member of Haysville Women’s Institute.
Hans and Joyce travelled extensively in their early retirement.
Hans and Joyce were wonderful parents to Sandra Lass (deceased 2009) of Moncton NB, Patricia Lass of New Hamburg, Catherine (Hans) Ochs of Waterloo, Max (Vicki) Lass of Stratford and Mark (Christine) Lass of New Hamburg.
