Heiran was born September 20, 1919 in Decorah, Iowa to Nels and Caroline Woldum who first settled in the Strathmore area in 1908. In the late 40's, while Heiran was employed as a school bus driver, he met the love of his life – his wife Dorothy. On November 12, 1949 Heiran and Dorothy were married. They farmed on the Woldum homeplace until 1955 when they moved east of Strathmore to Dorothy's homeplace where they continued to farm. Over the years, Heiran played an active role in shaping his community. He served on the Strathmore Co-op Association from its beginning to the amalgamation with the Calgary Co-op (35+ years). He was also involved in the Strathmore Lions Club and served as President for many organizations, including: Strathmore U.F.A. local, Glen Valley Telephone Co., Elwood Mutual Telephone Co., and the Strathmore Rural fire association, which he also helped organize. Heiran also enjoyed curling. When semi-retired, Heiran worked with Alberta Hail & Crop Insurance as a crop adjustor. In 1989, Heiran officially retired from farming life and he and Dorothy moved into town. He enjoyed his retirement and his many hobbies. Always one to tinker with gadgets, Heiran appreciated the inner-workings of clocks and watches. At the age of 80 he mastered computers, and at 90 started working with his first laptop. In January, Heiran moved to Strathmore Continuing Care. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Dorothy; children Ken (Hilda) Woldum and Karen (Ken) Hornung; five grandchildren Amy Woldum (fiance Ryan), Allen (Jodi) Hornung, Lynnette Hornung, Evan Woldum, and Scott Woldum; along with many nieces and nephews. The family extends a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Piesas and the staff at Strathmore Continuing Care for all of their help and compassion. A memorial service will be held on Monday, December 5, 2011 at St. Michael and All Angels Anglican Church, Strathmore at 11:30 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made directly to the Strathmore Hospital Ladies Auxiliary (200 Brent Blvd., Strathmore, AB, T1P 1J9) *courtesy Strathmore Times
