He peacefully passed away with his family at his side on February 1, 2002, at Maplewood Manor, Steinbach, Manitoba, reaching the age of ninety years. Dad's childhood years were spent in Greenland, Manitoba, on his father's farm. At the age of sixteen, he was born again. He was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite on November 27, 1927, by Min. Jacob T. Wiebe. The faith was precious to Dad, and he remained faithful to the end. On June 7, 1936, he was married to me, Agnes Reimer Wiebe. We shared life's joys and sorrows for sixty-five years, spending nearly our entire married life on the family farm. The last year was spent at Maplewood Manor, Steinbach, Manitoba. Our home was blessed with eleven children, of whom two died in infancy. Memories come flooding back. Dad was a good provider and always had a heart for the less fortunate. After World War II, Dad and Mother sponsored the immigration of a refugee family. But his greatest concern always was for the spiritual welfare of his children and grandchildren. His knowledge of German gave him an enjoyable avenue of service in translating and also editing the Church periodical, Die Bote. Those left to cherish his memory are his loving wife, Agnes; nine children: Lloyd and Gladys, Stettler, Alberta; Marilyn, Ste Anne, Manitoba; Ruth Wohlgemuth, Cartwright, Manitoba; Florence, Steinbach, Manitoba; Joyce and Larry Goossen, Ste. Anne, Manitoba; Sylvia and Leon Wohlgemuth, Durban, Manitoba; Marvin and Josie, Ste. Anne, Manitoba; Lorraine and Edgar Wohlgemuth, Ste. Anne, Manitoba; Joanne, Linden, Alberta; twenty-eight grandchildren; twenty-five great-grandchildren; two brothers: Waldon and Mildred, and Abe and Carrie; five sisters: Roselin Friesen, Adina Penner, Nellie Toews, Evelyn Fricke, and Jessie Penner; two sisters-in-law: Anna Penner and Pauline Penner; brother-in-law, Albert and Rosalie Barkman. Dad was predeceased by his parents, one son, one daughter, a son-in-law, two brothers, four sisters, and four brothers-in-law. Funeral services were held on February 5, 2002, at the Greenland Congregation, Ste. Anne, Manitoba. Min. Jesse Friesen and Min. Elroy Penner officiated. Burial was in the Greenland Cemetery, Ste. Anne, Manitoba, with Min. Melvin Penner in charge.
