They married on June 22, 1950 in the Whitewater Church and settled on a farm until he entered Normal School in Winnipeg in 1951.

Dad's dedication to education went beyond his classroom. He worked diligently as an active member of the Western Teachers' Association, the Manitoba Teachers' Society and, after his retirement, Retired Teachers' Association of Manitoba. Throughout all those years, Dad kept his connection to his love of farming by working as a crop inspector for the Department of Agriculture every summer.

Dad was deeply spiritual man who spent many years serving the Mennonite Church in every community where they lived. He was also a very active community member, serving on the Board of Morden and District Museum and the MSTW Planning Commission. His leadership was evident on every committee and he will always be remembered for his strong sense of commitment to his family, his church, and his community. Nothing gave Dad more pride and pleasure than spending time with his family He was very involved in the activities of his children and grandchildren, and was always eager to hear our stories and offer his advice. He especially liked to watch and talk baseball with his grandchildren and to share their many accomplishments. The family would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the staff at St. Boniface Hospital for their kind and compassionate care at a very difficult time.
