Lawrence Fellner Obituary
Lawrence Andrew Fellner, late of Weyburn, SK, passed away on February 22, 2025 at the age of 87 years.
He was predeceased by his parents, Max and Margaret Fellner; sisters, Dorothy (Raymond) Voigt and Florence Pachal (Gerry); and his in laws, Herb and Peggy LaBatte.
Lawrence is survived by his wife of 62 years, Heather Fellner of Weyburn, SK; his daughter, Jacquie (John) of Pangman, SK; his son, Michael (Fran) of Regina, SK; his son Brad (Kim) of Pangman, SK; grandchildren: Taylor (Dale), Jordon (Tanner) [Walker and Harlow], Jonathan, Andrew, Colton and Logan; sister-in-law, Bonnie (Frank) Kaip; brother-in-law, Barry (Brenda) LaBatte; as well as many nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, cousins and friends.
Lawrence Andrew Fellner was born December 29, 1937 to Max Fellner and Margaret Balzer. He was named after his beloved Grandpa Fellner. He was raised on the family farm south of Pangman, that his son Brad is now the 4th generation to farm. When he started school he could not speak English only German, later on as he learned the English language he taught his grandpa.
He graduated from Pangman and moved to Regina to take an accounting course at Balfour Tech. He worked in Regina and Weyburn and would help out on the farm whenever he could. It was in Regina that he met Heather and his life was forever changed. They were married in 1962. His love for Heather was something to be admired. As granddaughter Jordon put it, they showed us all what a strong healthy marriage looks like.
Lawrence and Heather settled in Regina, where Jacquie and Mike were both born. Lawrence would work as a bookkeeper over the late fall and winter, and move the family to Pangman to seed and harvest. The call of farming became too strong and they made the decision to take over the family farm and moved there in 1969 and Brad was born the next year.
Grandchildren arrived with Jacquie’s girls first Taylor and Jordon, then grandsons, Jonathan, Andrew, Colton and Logan. He loved his grandchildren dearly, always so patient, kind and loving with them. He later became a great grandpa to Walker and Harlow, and loved them dearly as well.
Lawrence and Heather moved in to Weyburn in 2002 and he continued to farm from there. You could not take the farm out of his blood, once a farmer always a farmer. Even when his health declined and he could not farm, he always wanted to come out and see the crops, even riding the combine a few times.
Anybody that knew Lawrence, knew what a great sense of humour that he had. Always making jokes and comments that made us all laugh. Right up to the end he kept that sense of humour, and never complained about his poor health. He loved sports, having Rider season tickets for many years, cheering on the Blue Jays, and loved watching curling. He was a hard worker all his life, teaching us all what hard work can accomplish.
We know that we now have an angel looking out for the whole family. Rest in peace to the best husband, dad, grandpa and great grandpa, uncle and brother-in-law.
