He grew up on a farm west of Rosenort. He married our mother, Helen Sophia Giesbrecht, on July 21, 1957 at Crooked Creek, AB.
Dad had various occupations, several winters in the bush camp, moving buildings with Frank Dyck for 10 years, and for Manitoba Pool Elevator up until his retirement.
He knew no strangers, everyone was a new friend he hadn’t met yet. Exchanging pens was a favorite hobby!
