Farming was a passion of dad’s. He began farming after Grade 8 with his dad Willie, eventually going out on his own at around 20 years of age. He continued farming with the family into his early 80’s. Dad always said, that if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life! He had truly found his passion which he passed on to the grandchildren now into the 5th generation of farming. Dad believed in the betterment of community serving as Deputy Reeve for the RM of Birch Hills, a board member for the Norther Housing Board and Birchview Nursing Home as well as various committees and organizations. In his early years, dad loved playing hockey and curling. In his later years, spending time with the family at Anglin Lake was something he always looked forward to.
The family would like to thank the Staff at the Mak Lodge, Dr. Halyk, and the staff at the Victoria Union Hospital for all the kind and compassionate care they have given.
