Wilf graduated from Balfour Collegiate in 1966 and in 1969, he married June-Marie Donison. It was the same year that Elmer Petruic became his step-father. Wilf and June-Marie were blessed with two daughters Karie-Lynn in 1971 and Staci-Lynn in 1975. Wilf’s career was primarily with the federal public service. When he worked for the Department of Regional Economic Expansion, he had the opportunity to live in Whitehorse, Yukon, moving to Cranbrook, BC. and returning home to Saskatchewan when he commenced employment with Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in 1985. In 1993, he married the love of his life Veronica and together they were blessed with a son Gregory in 1995. When cardiac illness prevented Wilf from working, he retired from his position of Regional Environment Manager in 2010. Wilf enjoyed traveling and loved to take his family and motor home to various destinations in North America. Wilf was a former member of the Knights of Columbus and in 1990 was elected for a two year term as 3rd degree Grand Knight. He was also a long time member of the Royal Canadian Legion. Wilf was a sports enthusiast especially in football cheering on the Saskatchewan Roughriders through good times and bad times and of course, his beloved New Orleans Saints. He enjoyed hockey and was a huge fan of the Vancouver Canucks. He played baseball in his teenage years and coached his daughters’ softball team in Cranbrook. Wilf also enjoyed curling and playing golf prior to his illness. He was an avid country and western music fan and he would often listen to CD’s and videos performed by his favorite artists.
