HOFFMAN - Clarence Hoffman passed away at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre on January 6, 2016 after a long courageous struggle with Parkinson’s. Clarence was born on the family farm in the Ebenezer District on March 21, 1931 to Fred and Emma (nee Ruttig) Hoffman. Clarence spent his entire life in the Ebenezer area; Langanau School provided his formal education and the Ebenezer Baptist Church was his church for life. After completing school he spent his time on the farm except for a short period of time working at a Post Office in Vancouver. Upon returning home he purchased a truck and hauled grain and cattle as well as began farming. Clarence later purchased a semi-truck to also haul bales and his steamer. On June 30, 1956 Clarence was united in Matrimony to his best friend, Ivis Neibrandt at the Neibrandt family home with Pastor Richard Grabke officiating. Clarence and Ivis continued farming at the present farm which he purchased from his father. In 1962 Clarence and Ivis built the present home and moved into it from the small farm house in 1963. Clarence and Ivis were blessed with two sons, Blaine in 1959 and Harley in 1967. When Harley took over the family farm for Clarence it made four generations of Hoffman’s on the same land since 1908. Clarence was an excellent mechanic and machinist. If a part wasn’t available he would just make it. His collection of antique tractors was both large and unique. His primary joy was his George White Steam Engine which he refurbished and ran for many years at the Western Development Museum, Motherwell Homestead, Regina Farm Progress Show and in many large and small community parades. In the fall he would host a “Threshing Day” at his farm with many friends, neighbours and family attending as well as many others that would come from far and near to see the old way of farming. Clarence was an honourary member of the Yorkton Thresherman’s Club for over 50 years of service as well as being a member of the Yorkton Antique Car Club. Clarence and Ivis also spent time travelling to Vancouver, Victoria, Oregon, Florida, Texas and California, as well as having many fond memories at Canyon Lake in Arizona. Clarence is predeceased by his parents, Fred and Emma; his brother, Ernie and his sister, Edna. He leaves to celebrate his life his wife, Ivis; his two sons, Blaine (Lorna) and Harley (Danette); his sisters, Verna and Alice and sister-in-law, Doreen; his beloved grandsons, Chad, Chris and Kyle and many nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and countless friends. He will be dearly missed by all his family and friends. A funeral service was held on Tuesday, January 12, 2016 from Ebenezer Baptist Church with Pastor Kendall Buhler officiating. A special solo musical tribute was given by Amanda Buhler of “One Day at a Time”. The organist, Elaine Patzer led the congregation in the singing of the hymns, “When The Roll is Called Up Yonder”, “Rock of Ages”, “Just As I Am” and “Amazing Grace”. The interment of cremated remains will follow at a later date in the Ebenezer Cemetery.

LOW - Donald Low, beloved husband, father, grandfather, greatgrandfather, uncle and friend to many, passed away January 3, 2016 at the Yorkton Regional Hospital. Don was born on the Low farm on March 7, 1926, the fifth son of Thomas Jr. and Lillian (nee Baird). His parents raised a family of six boys and two girls on a farm north of Foxwarren, MB. He attended Foxwarren Consolidated School, was active in sports, played the trumpet in the school band and became a Lieutenant in the Army Cadets. In 1942 at the age of sixteen, he was awarded a silver watch as a sharpshooter for the province of Manitoba. At the age of eighteen he joined the RCAF with the intention of becoming a pilot but was selected to train as a wireless gunner. He was later transferred to the Army and stationed in Toronto and Winnipeg. Upon discharged on Dec. 12, 1945 he returned to Foxwarren where he courted Elaine, the love of his life. He worked as a mechanic and cabinet builder, then in 1948 started working for the CPR as an Assistant Agent, later becoming an Operator and Station Agent. The last sixteen years of his career included a move to Yorkton and a promotion to Mobile Supervisor, retiring in 1988 after forty years with the railway. On August 25, 1951 he married Elaine Thorpe (the first couple to be married in the new Foxwarren United Church). They lived briefly in Winnipeg before moving to Bredenbury where they raised a family of two girls and two boys. Don was an avid sports enthusiast, enjoying hockey, curling, golf, bowling, hunting, fishing, swimming and horseshoes. Travel was an important part of Don’s life. Some of the highlights were family vacations with the tent trailer across Canada and the USA, trips to Europe, a Panama Cruise and various holidays with friends and family. Two very special destinations were the fifteen winters they spent in St. Augustine, Florida and the fifty plus years of travelling to Clear Lake, MB where many memories were made, most recently this past summer. A truly dedicated family man, he was a great inspiration and coach to his children and grandchildren. He attended as many activities as he could and always made time to encourage them and provide a few pointers. Don was a volunteer, willing to share his energy and talent. He was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion and very proud to have recently received a seventy year member pin. Don had a life-time commitment to the United Church in Bredenbury and Yorkton and until passing was a Board of Trustees Member at Westview United. He joined the Masonic Order in 1978 and participated in concordant bodies of The Royal Arch, was appointed the First Grand Principal of Saskatchewan from 1989-90, a member of The Scottish Rite, Preceptory, Wa Wa Shrine and Eastern Star. He was also a member of the Saskatchewan Telegraphers Club and the Yorkton Horseshoe Club, to mention just a few. Don was predeceased by his parents; son Ross; brothers, Gordon, Victor, Leslie & Bill and by a sister, Phyllis Talbot. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife Elaine of sixty-four years: their daughter Barb (Doug) Tomte of Spruce Grove, AB; their children Holly and Chad (Samantha); son David of Saltcoats, his children Meghan (Krishna), Rebecca (Mel) and Jessie and daughter Pat (Eric) Holtkamp of Yorkton and their children Karlie (Mitch), Laura (Aaron) and Haley (Brenden) and great-grandchildren Logan, Audrey and Hudson, as well as a brother Alec (Shirley) of Dauphin, MB; a sister, Evelyn Widdicombe of Chetwynd, BC and numerous nieces and nephews. The funeral service was held on Saturday, January 9, 2016 from Westview United Church, Yorkton. Rev. Deborah Smith and Rev. Walter Farquharson officiated. Organist Laurene Jemieff led members of the church choir and the congregation in the singing of the hymns ‘Walk With Me’, ‘Make Me A Channel of Your Peace’, ‘Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah’, ‘Give to Us Laughter’ and ‘We Shall Go Out with Hope of Resurrection’. A favourite hymn of Don’s - ‘Stars in My Crown’ was played. The Masonic Funeral Rite was conducted by members of the Yorkton Lodge #12 A.F & A.M and the Veteran Tribute Service was conducted by members of the Royal Canadian Legion, General Alexander Ross Branch #77. The interment took place in the Yorkton City Cemetery with grandson Chad Tomte serving as the urn bearer. Condolences may be left at baileysfuneralhome.com.

DICKIE - Edwin Dickie, beloved husband of Matilda Dickie of Yorkton, formerly of the Ebenezer and Crewell districts, passed away at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre on December 24, 2015 after a brief battle with stomach cancer. He was seventy-eight years of age. Edwin was born August 14, 1937 to Harry & Ivy Dickie (nee Wilson). He grew up with his brother Art. They worked hard and were mostly home schooled. They did find time for some fun. He bought his first land from an uncle at a young age. Dad married the love of his life Matilda Frederiksen on December 7, 1963. Together they raised 4 children and built up a successful farm named Last Horse Hill Ranch. After 10 years of drought in the south it was decided to sell and try something new. We bought a grain farm at Ebenezer. Dad said he got rid of rocks, cattle and barbed wire fences. We arrived at Ebenezer, August 15, 1989. We made many new friends right away and never looked back. Dad never refused to help a friend, neighbour or even strangers in need. His kindness, generosity, humour and quick wit are traits that we as children can only hope are passed onto us. Edwin was predeceased by his parents, Harry & Ivy (nee Wilson) Dickie and his daughter Kimberley Juricic. He leaves to cherish his memory, his wife Matilda of Yorkton, three children; Jacqueline Dickie, Timothy (Eloise) Dickie, Aaron (Jennifer) Dickie, five grandchildren; Sheldon, Alexandra, Devin, Hunter and Nathan, brother Arthur (Alice), as well as their many “adopted” kids, numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. Funeral Services were held on Friday, January 8, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. from Heritage Baptist Church in Yorkton with Rev. Kendall Buhler of Ebenezer Baptist Church officiating. Tributes and words of remembrance were given by Crystal Buczulak, Merrell Dickie and Jacqueline Dickie. Organist, Amanda Buhler led the congregation in the singing of the hymns, ‘How Great Thou Art’, ‘Softly and Tenderly’ and ‘When the Roll is Called Up Yonder’. The urn bearers were Edwin’s grandchildren. Interment will follow at a later date in the Creelman Town Cemetery. Memorials in memory of Edwin may be made to the Ebenezer Baptist Church or to the Health Foundation towards Palliative Care at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre as gifts of remembrance.

PFEIFER - John Phillip “Phil” Pfeifer, 1934 - 2016. With fond memories and a sense of loss, sadness and relief, we announce the passing of one of Estevan’s true icons on New Year’s Day of 2016. In spite of a terminal cancer diagnosis more than two years ago, Dad continued to live life his way until late summer. His way meant being what he always was. He had the respect, love and friendship of those who knew him. Being productive, fiercely independent and his get it done attitude never stood in the way of his generous, caring and thoughtful nature. When he wasn’t busy saving the residents of Estevan by exterminating mosquitos and weeds during his day job, he could be found donating his time to charitable canvassing or gathering up and returning shopping carts from the grocery store parking lots or snowblowing many of the neighbourhood driveways or supplying baking to friends and causes or…well, you get the picture. Dad’s capacity to give was only equalled by his desire to never be a burden or to be treated special. We often hear of people fighting courageous battles during difficult times or through episodes of illness. Whether it was his own episode with cancer or during his time as primary caregiver to mom, Dad chose not to battle through but to live through these difficulties. Did I mention this was since retirement? Born in St. Boniface, MB, he moved with the family to Portage la Prairie and Yorkton, SK at an early age. Never a scholar, dad loved hockey and despite his diminutive size, relied early on his attitude to be part of numerous provincial and interprovincial championship Bantam and Midget teams. He married LaVina McDougall in Yorkton on June 23, 1956 with son Ty arriving the following year. Dad worked his entire career for Bowman Brothers later to become Acklands Ltd. As a “clean up” manager who was dispatched to fix distressed branches of the company, the family relocated several times prior to settling in Estevan in 1970. Sometime after retiring into boredom in 1996, dad was told by his former boss, “Phil, we had to hire three guys to replace you”. Dad of course took this as the supreme compliment. After LaVina’s passing in 2002, dad unretired working several different jobs until becoming seasonally permanent at Southeast Tree Care where he admitted to having found the perfect job…working outdoors and driving around on a tractor. Dad continued to work his perfect job literally until the day he was admitted to hospital in August. After a life well lived, Phil will be welcomed into the Peace by wife LaVina, parents Constance and John Pfeifer, brother Allen Pfeifer, sisters Shirley (Bob) McGifford, Joan (Ray) Walsh, Barbara (Ed) Eisenzimmer, Madeleine Lange and in-laws Pauline and Charlie McDougall. Phil is survived by his son Ty (Mary Jane), grandsons Scott, Andy and Jim (Tess Clark) Pfeifer, sister-in-law Georgina Pfeifer, brother-in-law Bruce Lange, numerous nieces and nephews and by his very special friend, Eileen Brown. Eileen’s love, caring and companionship undoubtedly extended the length and quality of dad’s life…she gave him reason to live. Special thanks to Eileen’s children and spouses, Bob and Beth Wock and family, Larry Doan and family and to all those who took the time to visit with dad over the last few weeks. Finally, thanks to Dr. Omosigho and a big shout out for the entire staff at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Estevan for their care of dad. A celebration of Phil’s life will be held in Estevan in the spring. Notice will be sent out when a date is confirmed. Arrangements are entrusted to Hall Funeral Services, Estevan. Messages of condolence may be forwarded to the family by visiting www.hallfuneralservices.ca. Happy New Year Dad.
