Frank is lovingly remembered by his wife, Mary, and their six children, Dennis (Shirl), John (Bonnie), Barry (Cory), Randy (Annie), Dale (Susan) Hildebrandt and Lori (Marc) Rioux. He is also remembered by his grandchildren, Dustin (Kristen), Chynna, Madison, Amber, Nathan, Bryanne, Cindy, Sherri, Ryan, Erin, Cobi, Emi, and Kaden; and his great-grandchildren, Ethan, Rialey, and Taylor. Frank was predeceased by his brothers, John, Henry, Jake, Pete, and Abe. Frank was born in Warmen, Sask., the youngest of six boys. He farmed with his family in the Winkler/Sperling, Man. area. When he moved to Grunthal and married Mary Wiens in September 1947, he brought his big heart with him. He wasn't just an electrician, plumber, furnace man, gravedigger, gasfitter, he was also a curler, comedian, hat collector, baseball player, active Lion's member and young at heart. He never retired from work, he just slowed down. He was still installing furnaces and hot water tanks the last few months of his life. But more than work, Frank always made time to help his family, whether it was shingling a roof in Calgary, completing the electrical, plumbing and heating in the homes of most of his children, or helping Uncle John with the fall harvest, he was always there without fail. Even when experiencing health problems, he single handedly planned his 80th birthday and his boisterous laugh will never be forgotten. The family would like to thank Dr. Strank, home care, and especially the staff at DeSalaberry District Health Centre. John and Nettie Wiens hold a special place in our hearts due to their exceptional support the last few months. The funeral service was held at Elim Church, Wednesday, Dec. 14 at 2 p.m. In memoriam donations can be made to Mennonite Central Committee, 134 Plaza Drive, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 5K9, or the DeSalaberry District Health Centre, Box 320, St. Pierre Jolys, MB, R0A 1V0. Arrangements by Birchwood Funeral Chapel, Steinbach and Winnipeg, Man. ALLAN HUEBNER Allan Huebner passed away peacefully on Dec. 8, 2005 at his home in Prelate, Sask., at the age of 71. Allan is survived by his son, Daryl Huebner of Prelate, Sask., and his daughter, Kim (Denis) Baudry and their children, Diane and son Jeremie, Aurele and Adrienne, all of Ste. Agathe, Man. Allan was predeceased by his parents, Gottfried Huebner and Natalie (Lange); sisters Hilda, Ella and Alma. Allan's working years were spent as a grain elevator manager, moving through the Manitoba communities of Miami, Plum Coulee and Niverville, and transferring on to Leader, Sask., where he retired. He enjoyed working with the farmers and made many lasting friendships. He played hockey with the Niverville Oldtimers when they were actually "Oldtimers". He looked forward every summer to the family camping trips and telling stories around the campfire. A private graveside ceremony will be conducted for the immediate family at the Morris Cemetery. Dad (Grandpa) will always be remembered and treasured in our hearts. HENRY L.
