Bert received his education at the Little Red Deer School about three miles north of his parent’s farm west of Innisfail and served with the Royal Canadian Air Force in WWII. He and Margaret were married in 1949 and their courtship saw his Minneapolis Moline tractor traveling often between Innisfail and Bowden, as that was Bert’s mode of transportation at the time. They farmed in the Grahamston district east of Innisfail until his retirement from Corrections Canada (Bowden), after nearly 30 years, in the early 80’s. He was a member of the Loyal Orange Lodge all his adult life, Bert was a man of integrity and perseverance, dedicated to his family, to his community and to his country.
