Edna Gertrude Stronge

On Monday, April 26, 1999, Edna Gertrude Stronge, late of Weyburn, passed away at the age of 74 years. Predeceased by her parents: Karl and Caroline Selzer; one son, Douglas Stronge; four sisters: Eda Hohn, Katie Walter, Millie Cowley and Ella Brodt. Edna is survived by her loving husband, Gordon Stronge, of Weyburn; one son, Scott (Wendy) Stronge of Weyburn; three grandchildren: Derek, Heather and Kristen Stronge, Weyburn; four brothers, Rudy (Ann) Selzer of Regina; Louis (Kay) Selzer of Balgonie; Carl (Alma) Selzer of Balgonie; and Richard (June) Selzer of Vancouver, BC; two sisters: Bertha Sigmeth of Regina; and Freda (John) Turluk of Zehner, SK; as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Edna was born December 5, 1924 on the homestead at Jameson, just south of Balgonie, the ninth child added to the growing family of Carl and Caroline Selzer. She and her sisters spent the summers herding sheep and the winters helping with dairy chores in between schooling and church and family celebrations. They were a musical family, with brothers Carl and Rudy playing accordion, Louis on the clarinet, and Dick of the guitar while the girls formed the choir. School and education were a big part of Edna's life. She started at Newton School in Jameson, then moved on to complete Grade 12 at General High School in Balgonie. After graduation from Normal school in Regina, she went teaching with her brother Rudy and sister Freda during the years of World War II, taking positions at Bethune, Milestone, Avonhurst, and Colgate. Here she met Gordon, and they were married at Trinity Lutheran Church in Regina on October 18, 1952. Edna continued teaching at Colgate and Zehner until their first child was born. When Doug was about three, Edna returned to teaching at Braemar, where her sister Katie lived and helped with child care. Edna and Gordon made their home together on the old Stronge farm for several years, then bought the yard on the highway where they lived for over 35 years. They raised two sons on the farm, seeing Doug into university and then trying to cope with his death in a tragic motorcyle accident. Deeply affected by this grief, Edna and Gordon went on to raise Scott into marriage and an electrical career. They retired in 1991, and traded houses with Scott and Wendy and their growing family. Edna's life was filled with family, farm, community, and church. She served on the Library Board, representing Lomond R.M. and for many years with the Colgate Hospital Auxiliary. She enjoyed curling, square dancing, old tyme dancing, fiddler's contests and went to the polkafest at Grayson and Edenwold. She and Gordon did a lot of traveling together, twice to Europe, to Alaska, to Hawaii for their 25th anniversary, to Arizona with the family, Cuba, a Caribbean cruise, to the Maritimes, and last spring to Victoria on a bus tour. This was their last trip together, as a planned outing to Hostfest had to be cancelled for health reasons. In her spare time Edna pursued her artistic bent. She worked in ceramics for many years, producing some lovely pieces that grace their home. There are also a number of paper tollings framed in their home. And for her family reunion two years ago, Edna painted a large family tree, with the old homestead in the background. Planning and preparing for family gatherings like Christmas and Easter, weddings or anniversaries, was a big part of her life. She and Gordon became very involved with Zion Lutheran Church, attending Bible study and worship regularly. As it had during the difficult times before, her faith and the support from her church and friends were very important to her during her battle with lung cancer. When difficult breathing brought her daily walks to an end, she pursued the diagnosis. When she was told that the prognosis was bleak and that conventional treatment options held little hope, she pursued alternative therapies in the Bahamas to improve her life and provide hope for remission. Heart failure on Monday, April 26 brought this battle to a sudden end, and with Gordon by her side, Edna entered her rest. Funeral service was held Thursday, April 29 at 2:00 p.m. from Zion Lutheran Church, Weyburn, with Pastor Ron Bestvater officiating. Interment followed in Green Acres Memorial Gardens, Weyburn. All those in attendance were considered to be honorary pallbearers. The active pallbearers were: Don Wicks, Lloyd Soroka, Carl Kelln, Dahlton Lewis, Alvin Dehnke and Willard Hamann. For friends so wishing, donations may be made to the Zion Lutheran Church Building Fund in her memory. Arrangements were entrusted to Fletcher Funeral Chapels Ltd., Weyburn.

Arthur Theodore Dechant

On Thursday, April 22, 1999 Arthur Theodore Dechant, late of Weyburn, passed away at the age of 82 years. Predeceased by his father and mother, Reinhold and Hilda Dechant; two brothers, Walter and Carl; and one sister-in-law, Polly Dechant. Art is survived by his three brothers and one sister: Ralph Dechant, Ernest Dechant, Clifford Dechant and Grace Dechant, all of Weyburn. Art was born August 8, 1916, the first of the Dechant boys. Reinhold and Hilda had only recently come up from the States to homestead in the Francis area. Conditions were harsh, Art was born in the granary where they lived that first winter. They kept warm with a wood stove and Souris coal until spring, when a proper house was built and sod was turned and farming began in earnest. Art's life was the family farm. He attended the Diamond School, until the call to the farm took precedence and he stayed at home. Dad always depended on Art for farming, and Art always followed Dad's advice. They farmed with horses for many years, until Art got them interested in a Massey-Wallace, which soon was traded off for their first John Deere. From the humble beginnings in the granary, through to pitching bundles all day into the threshing machine, Art helped build the family farm into a three-combine operation that also included neighbour Allan McIver. Though Art loved the whole way of life, his favorite part of farming was the harvest. Art used to enjoy watching sports. He never missed the Colfax sports days, and always enjoyed listening to the Toronto Maple Leafs on the radio or watching them play on TV. He usually attended the old-time music dances at Diamond and Maxwell schools, with Leonard Linen's band playing the music. And there were many evenings over at neighbours playing cards. Art also liked to travel, and he went on every John Deere tour that Watson's had, twice by plane, and a few times with Bruno's by bus down to Detroit and Flint. He really enjoyed the Diamond School reunion a few years ago, especially the unveiling of the school marker and time capsule. Along with his brothers and sister, Art joined Christ Lutheran Church of Francis by adult confirmation with Pastor Berg officiating a ceremony held right on the farm. From 1983 until retirement in 1989 Art tried 'city farming' from 93 Scott Crescent in Weyburn. Lung and heart trouble slowed him down, so that a move to Parkway Lodge was necessary. Life there suited his good nature, and he took a lot of teasing. He became involved in a lot of things he'd never done before. He went on to the Parkway Lodge float in the parade last year, and really enjoyed the annual Twinkle Tour of Christmas lights. After his brother Carl's death just two months ago, Art's health deteriorated. On April 22 he passed away peacefully in his sleep. A memorial service was held Monday, April 26 from Fletcher Funeral Chapel, Weyburn, with Pastor Ron Bestvater officiating. All those in attendance were considered to be honorary pallbearers. Interment will follow at a later date in Regina Memorial Gardens. For friends so wishing, donations may be made to a charity of the donor's choice, in his memory. Arrangements were entrusted to Fletcher Funeral Chapels Ltd., Weyburn.

Derek and Jeanne immigrated to Canada in July of 1970 and lived in Kenora, ON where Derek was employed by Modern Dairies (later Beatrice Foods) until 1972, then in Sioux Lookout for one year, then back to Kenora until his retirement in 1982. Derek joined the Royal Canadian Legion in Sioux Lookout then transferred to Kenora where he served as Sergeant-at-Arms for 14 years. He was a long time member of the Masons, and was past Master in 1987 in Kenora, and a member of the International Peace Gardens Lodge, the Eastern Star and the Independent Order of Forresters. In March 1989 Derek and Jeanne moved to Weyburn to be closer to their daughter and her family. In May 1995 they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Derek received six medals for his time of Service. He loved life, his family and people. His big smile and cheerful nature endeared him to many people.
