Henry Huebert of Tofield, Alta. passed away
Nov. 8. He was born May 27, 1915 to Jacob

died during the Russian Revolution, and he
was separated from his brothers and sisters.
When he was 8, Henry and

into their home, saving his
life. In 1926 he immigrated
to Canada, settling at
Sedalia, Alta. and moving to
Tofield in 1934. He married
Katie Ewert Mar. 12, 1937.
He operated the Tofield
Feed Mill until retirement
in 1976. He then took up
woodworking as a hobby, making many
items for family and friends. He served his
church faithfully until poor health no longer
permitted active participation. He had a
great love for music, and played and sang
with joy as long as he was able. He is
remembered as a loving husband, father and
grandfather. He is mourned by his wife; son Wilmer and Rudy of Tofield and Dennis of
Wetaskiwin, Alta.; daughter Brenda Wiens
of Sherwood Park, Alta.; 10 grandchildren
and 1 great-granddaughter. The funeral was
Nov. 11 in Tofield Gospel Church, with
