BENJAMIN F. REDEKOP, 75
Benjamin F. Redekop, 75, of Herbert, Sask., was born in 1888 in South Russia. When he was 20 years old he was saved and later received into the M.B. Church at Millerovo. He came to Canada in 1913 and was soon active in church affairs and in the community. His activities included participation in school boards, town councils, Bible School boards, church trustee, church secretary, and conference committees. He was married to Anna Rose Bestvater in 1922 and the union was blessed with 2 sons and 3 daughters.
His health began to fail in the spring of 1963 and after suffering much pain, he departed this life to be with the Lord.
He leaves to mourn besides his wife and immediate family, 11 grandchildren and one sister, as well as a great host of friends and relatives.
