KLATT Johanes (John) Klatt was born to Joseph and Paulina Klatt on October 9th, 1919 and passed away May 8th, 2014 at the age of 94 years 7 months. He was raised on the family farm and went to school at Painter Creek Alberta. John helped his dad on the farm until he got married on Nov. 26th, 1942 to Alva (Trefz). They lived with Alva’s parents in Bashaw, Alberta for a month as John and Robert Trefz went to work at a sawmill in Winfield, Alberta. John and Alva moved to Bolander’s place in the Paintearth Coulee and resided there one year and then moved to the Schilke place and from there returned to the family farm which he eventually purchased. John enjoyed all aspects of farming even through unpredictable times. They were blessed with eight children: Sylvia, Mervin, Conrad, twins Robert and Marie, Linda, Gordon and Carla. They suffered hardships as Sylvia passed away at 3 months of age with whooping cough. Robert was stillborn and Marie lived thirteen days. In 1973 they sold the farm and moved to Botha, Alberta. John worked at Bill’s Farm Supply setting up new machinery and then worked as a janitor at Stettler High School. John retired in 1984 and thoroughly enjoyed the time this allowed to fish and camp with his family and friends. In June of 2006 John and Alva moved into Paragon Place in Stettler, Alberta. After the passing of Alva, John continued to live at Paragon Place until November of 2012 and due to failing health he then moved into Pine Ridge Care Centre. He was content and well cared for there. Pine Ridge Care Centre closed and John was then moved to Points West facility where he resided until his passing. John leaves to lovingly remember him: children Mervin (Ellen) Klatt, Conrad (Sheila) Klatt, Linda (Wayne) Rossing, Gordon (Brenda) Klatt, and Carla (Morgan) Grams; grandchildren: Shane (Jody) Klatt, Cody (Sharon) Klatt, Jason (Tammy) Rossing, Corwyn (Kelsey) Rossing, Trevor (Myste) Klatt, Tracey (Kim) Klatt, Tarah (Trevor) Knodel, Chad (Jill) Grams, Kyle Grams and 19 great grandchildren; sisters-in-law Mary Stenerson, Esther Trefz and Irene (Howard) Schaufele; and brother-inlaw Ed (Eileen) Trefz, many nieces and nephews.
