It is profound sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved Dad, Grandad and Great-Grandad, Carl Manford Kraus, aged 90 years of Providence Place, Moose Jaw, SK on December 9, 2019.

He is survived by his two sons Keith (Lorraine) of Saskatoon, Wayne (Wendy) of Regina and their children Jared (Jocelyn) Ayden and Lukas; Megan (Chris); Kyle; Cody; Clay (Jesse) and Jackson. Carl was born on December 18, 1928 on a farm near Mossbank, SK. His family moved to the Mazenod area in the late 1930’s where they farmed until the 1960’s. Carl enjoyed the farm life and liked trying his hand at growing different crops and raising his own cattle. On December 15, 1962 he married Lillian Abbott of Assiniboia, SK and they raised two boys Keith and Wayne. They left Assiniboia and moved to Moose Jaw where Carl was a journeyman painter at Valley View Centre for 20 years. He was active in the Odd Fellows Lodge for years and a longtime member of Central Lutheran Church. A very special thank you to Bryce for all the kindness, care and compassion shown to Dad over the past few years. Many thanks and appreciation to the staff at Providence Place for their great care.
