It is with deep sorrow that we

and grandfather on Monday, July 21, 2014 at the age of 83 years.
Herb is survived and will be forever
missed by his loving wife Lorraine; daughters Gerianne (Ken) and grandsons Kyle

granddaughters Alexandra, Jessica and Maya; Krista (Brett) and
grandchildren Aidan and Rebecca; brother Erwin (Jeanne), Kurt (Frances),

sister Ursula and brother-in-law Harry Held; father-in-law Wilhem and
mother-in-law Eva Single; sister-in-law Edna and husband Al Kornelsen; and
sister-in-law Florence and husband Bill Sellers.
On June 5, 1931 Herb was born in
Waldersee, Manitoba. He married Lorraine Single on July 6, 1957 and they had a
very happy and wonderful 57 years together. He was blessed with four daughters
and nine grandchildren. Family was always the center of Dad’s life. He is
described by his grandchildren as patient, devoted, loving, kind, great,
gentle, hardworking, brave, determined and dedicated. He had two great passions
in his life. It was family first followed by his Model A club. Herb’s
pride and joy was his 1931 Model A Ford that he meticulously restored. He loved
to take his family and friends for rides in the rumble seat.
A Celebration of Life Service will
be held on Saturday, July 26, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. in the Lutheran Church of
the Cross, 560 Arlington Street with Paster Kolleen Karlowsky-Clark, presider.
