Raymond Rempel
1930 - 2006
After seventy-five years of a life filled with family, church, business and sports, on January 20, 2006, our dear dad quickly left this Earth for a better place. He laughed with and loved his wife of 52 years, Evangeline, until his final days.
For the last four years of his life, dad suffered from progressive supranuclear palsy, which regretfully limited his energies. He never complained of his illness, but took it as part of God’s plan for his life.
Dad was born in Steinbach, Manitoba on September 20, 1930, to Peter S. and Elizabeth (Friesen) Rempel.
Dad loved to play sports; one of his greatest joys was escaping to frozen ponds for hockey, to baseball diamonds, or to the tranquil fairways of golf courses. He was a natural who thrived on competition, and always strove to be the first and best. By good fortune, he was born into a family with enough boys to form their own Rempel baseball team.
He played Junior ‘B’ hockey in his youth and was a hardball pitcher for local ball teams. As he grew older, he enjoyed snowmobiling through the forests of Manitoba and helped begin the first golf course in Steinbach. When he fully retired, he was called up to the local Seniors Slo-Pitch team, and was drafted as one of the star players for the St. James Seniors Slo-Pitch team that went to Arizona for the World Playoffs in the year 2000.
Later, he began the Romeo club – the Retired Old Men Eating Out club – with whom he organized countless outings in the region to restaurants, factories, buildings and businesses of interest to him and his cronies.
He worked as hard as he played sports. For many years he worked for his uncle Jonas Friesen at the Steinbach Lumber Yard, then in 1972 created and ran his own interior decorating retail business known as Rays Interiors until 1996. Both his wife Evangeline and daughter Melanie worked by his side at the business for many years.
With the same fervor he brought to playing sports, he accepted His Lord as Saviour. Dad never wavered in his faith; what he believed he pursued with a single-minded purpose. He was an Evangelical Mennonite Brethren (now Cornerstone Bible) Church trustee for many years, and was Sunday School Secretary-Treasurer. He even brought his sporting life to the church, beginning a weekly volleyball club at the church gym for seniors.
He will be deeply missed by his wife, Evangeline; three daughters, one son and their families; daughter Melanie and Marvin (Blake and children Cole and Gabrielle, and Mickey-Ray); daughter Cari and Darrel (Cameron and Ryley); and daughter Madrece, all of Steinbach; and son Byron and Genevieve of Montreal. He also leaves to mourn one sister, Mrytle Reimer, and four brothers: Clarence (Marge), Ralph (Wilma), Jake (Lorraine), and George; as well as sisters-in-law Helen Rempel, Joan Rempel, and brother-in-law Roland Barkman.
He was predeceased by sisters Rose (George) Kliewer, Annie (Peter) Peters, and Evelyn Barkman; and brothers Peter, Orlando (Elma), Arnold, and Marvin.
He will also be dearly missed by his sisters- and brothers-in-law: Harold (Betty) Unger, Lottie (Peter) Guenther, and Veleda Goulden, and was predeceased by his brother-in-law Richard Goulden.
Our dear dad leaves behind a large and loving group of nephews, nieces and extended family, friends and acquaintances, all of whom were touched by his steadfast faith and love of life.
Special thanks to Dr. Wilfred Kaethler for his kind and compassionate care, and also for the tender ministrations of Home Care Case Coordinator Sandy Klassen and her able staff.
Viewing will be held at Birchwood Funeral Chapel, Steinbach, on Monday,January 23 at 7 p.m. with a devotional at 7:30 p.m. The Funeral Service will be held Cornerstone Bible Church
290 First Street, corner of Reimer and 1st Street,
Steinbach, Manitoba on Tuesday, January 24 at 2 p.m. Interment at Heritage Cemetery.
Donations may be made in his name to the Association for Community Living Foundation, 395 Main Street; Steinbach, Manitoba R5G 1Z4
