Upon true repentance and confession of his faith, he was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, on March 28, 1941. Bennie spent some time in a C. O. camp in Ontario, and also on a farm in Manitoba. He moved to Linden, Alberta, with his parents in the fall of 1947. His occupation was cement work and farming. He married Clara Isaac on June 4, 1950, and they shared life’s joys and sorrows for over forty-three years. Through his illness he became very dependent on his wife, and we as the children deeply appreciate her loyalty in caring for him. Despite frustrations, through it all he remained faithful. He had a deep concern for the spiritual welfare of his family. Those left to cherish fond memories of him are: me, his loving wife, Clara; his children: Mildred, of the home; Roland and Ruth; and Leonard and Anita, Linden, Alberta; Loretta and Daryl Toews, Dewberry, Alberta; Flora and Lester Reimer; and Chester and Roxie, Linden, Alberta; and Rosella and Michael Toews, Rimbey, Alberta; sixteen grandchildren; six brothers and three sisters: Margaret, Linden, Alberta; Willie and Emmeline, Dewberry, Alberta; Jake, Linden, Alberta; Luise and Sam Boese, Fort Vermilion, Alberta; Gus and Aileen, Kelowna, British Columbia; Jesse and Eleanor; Levi and Venice; and Aaron and Agnes, all of Abbotsford, British Columbia; and Tina and Harold Wiebe, Spirit River, Alberta; and many other relatives and friends.
