It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of PETER ARNOLD NEUFELD on March 19, 2020. Peter was born on September 11, 1945 in Carrot River, SK to Mary and Abram Neufeld. Growing up in a family of 11 children, Peter learned early in life the importance of family. The name Peter means “the rock” and he truly lived up to that name. He was our rock.
Glenda was the love of his life. Married for 48 years, they built their life around God, family, travel and volunteering. Serving the Lord was always a priority for him. He was fiercely loyal to his children, Nicole (Chad) and Jeff (Miranda), and he had a never ending love for his grandchildren: Katie, Mallory, Raedyn, Leo and Gemma. Peter was endlessly giving of his time. Ask anyone who knows him and they would tell you that Peter was forever kind, would be there for you in a heartbeat, and was truly the most amazing man you could ever meet.
When we remember dad, we will think of this: the joy of his Backyard oasis, the time he enjoyed watching ‘his birds’, the Cadillac of treehouses he built for his grandkids, his old truck “big red”, his bike trips with his best friend Don, his uniform of Levi jeans and Harley Davidson tee’s, visiting with friends and having a Coors, his love of furry friends, his ability to build and fix anything, coffee time with the “Spudnut” gang, and of course “Friday Beers” at Pop’s Pub.
Peter was predeceased by his mother and father, his sisters: Mary, Kathy and Lee and his brother Abe. He is survived by siblings: Liz, John, Dave, Edith, Louise and Jack.
Out of concern for the COVID-19 emergency, a Celebration of Life will be announced at later date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Neufeld Peter Arnold September 11 1945..
Death notice for the town of: Lethbridge, Province: Alberta
