He and Magdalene farmed in Spring Valley, Vibank, Lang, Estlin, and settled in Kronau until retiring to Regina. He enjoyed going to the farm every year including this past fall at age 96 for harvest time and in the spring for seeding. He always wanted to know how the crops were doing or was asking about the weather. He attended the Farm Progress Show and Agribition throughout the years. <br /><br />Jack also loved visiting and hearing about his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He was always interested in how they were doing and what they were up to. Jack was a very independent man; he enjoyed hockey, curling, old time music, dancing, reading his newspapers, watching the news on TV and doing his own cooking, he enjoyed his sip of wine or schnapps right to his final days. <br /><br />At Jack&rsquo;s request no funeral service will be held, instead a private family gathering will take place. <br /><br />In lieu of flowers, donations in Jack&rsquo;s memory may be made to a charity of your choice. <br /><br />Arrangements entrusted to Regina Funeral Home (306) 789-8850.</div>
