STRIGA: Mike Striga. With great sadness we announce the passing of Mike Striga of Mullingar, SK at the age of 85. He passed peacefully after a brief illness, in the presence of family, at St. Paul’s Hospital, in the early morning of May 2, 2016. Mike is survived by his loving wife of 58 years, Melita, who continues to reside at the farm they built together. Mike was born to Anna and Louis Striga at their farm near Sandy Lake, SK on August 20, 1930. He had nine siblings; predeceased by John, Anne, Pete, Steve, Fred, Helen, Stella, and Walter, and survived by Sophie Nykiforuk in North Battleford, SK. Mike left behind a strong family legacy and is lovingly remembered by his two sons; Albert (wife Gay, Calgary, AB) and Ron (Hinton, AB), numerous grandchildren; Greg and Sarah Striga (Al’ and Gay’s), and Lesley Striga, Michelle Wohlberg (husband Dan), Rebbeccca Striga, Chantalle Striga, Taylor Striga, and Megan Striga (Ron’s), as well as his great-grandchildren; Kylie, Colton, and Tyson Salisbury (Lesley’s), Lars Wohlberg (Michelle and Dan’s), Riley, Kaley, and Britney Hunt (Chantalle’s) and a baby girl expected soon (Rebbecca’s). Mike was raised farming, and held many other careers such as ranching, operating heavy equipment, and logging. He was well-liked and respected in the community, and many friends and neighbors will feel a large loss with his passing. Mike was a strong, active, hard-working man who could entertain you with many lively stories which he always peppered precisely with names, dates, places, and colorful memories, “by jeepers”. He kept his sharp mind honed and up-todate with current affairs, news, politics, and sports, (especially curling and hockey) and wouldn’t hold back his determined opinion about any of them. Right up until the day he fell ill, Mike could still be found playing various musical instruments, singing, splitting wood, enjoying a drink, cooking homemade soup, and winning two out of three in cribbage. Mike was a skilled fisherman, enjoyed camping, wildlife, travel, and always kept his yard and garden flawlessly groomed with pride. As per Mike’s wishes, there will be no funeral service. Flowers or donations can be made to St. Paul’s Palliative Care Ward, who provided end-of-life care. Your condolences can be mailed to P.O.

SANDER: Paula Lucy (Sieben) January 5, 1924 – April 17, 2016. It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of our wife, mother and grandmother Paula. At the time of her passing, she was surrounded by her husband and their five children. Paula was born on January 5, 1924 in the Grosswerder district in Saskatchewan. She was the fifth of 13 children born to Adam and Elizabeth Sieben. Growing up in the depression and with eight younger children to care for, Paula developed a very strong work ethic early in life. On February 14, 1950 Paula married Joseph Sander and moved to the Wilkie area where they worked together on the farm until moving into Wilkie in 1981. There she continued to tend her large garden and the flowers she loved. She enjoyed the many activities of the New Horizons and was a long-time member of the CWL. Paula and Joe moved to Bethany in 2007 where they settled into a new routine, enjoying the friendship of the staff and residents and especially the nightly games of Shmear. In June 2015, together they moved into Poplar Courts where they established a new routine, spending time together watching TV particularly curling and Saturday night dance time. Paula remained involved and interested in the lives of her children, their spouses, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, causing us to wonder how she was able to keep track of us all. Her faith was an important part of her life. We were blessed to have had her as our wife, mother and Grammie. Paula is survived by her devoted husband of 66 years, Joseph G. Sander and their children Cordellia (Lenard Crittenden), Willie (Cal Glasman), Josie (Wayne Kunkel), Paulette (Bill Bradford) and Patrick (Roseanne Sander). Grandchildren: Lezlie Illingworth (Brent), Lisa Knowles (Sean Maclean), Rick Knowles (Tracy), Melissa Welford (Michael), Jon Loehr, Andrew Loehr (Samantha), Joe Sander (Jan), Brad Sander (Melissa) and Chris Sander (Kristin). Great-grandchildren: Alexandra and John Thomas Illingworth, Mikaela and Aliyah Ford, Coralee and Colton Knowles, Madison, Mackenzie and Maddox Welford and Olivia Sander; three sisters Judy McMaster, Anne Banach and Mary Salewski, one brother Peter Sieben as well as a large extended family. The funeral mass was held April 21, 2016 at St. James Roman Catholic Church in Wilkie, Saskatchewan. Officiated by Father George Chatholil, music by the Sander Family Choir. Tributes may be directed to the Chronic Kidney disease Clinic (Dr. J Kapple) c/o St. Paul’s Hospital Foundation, 1702-20th St. West, Saskatoon, SK S7M 0Z9 or masses. Interment at the Wilkie Cemetery.
