Obituaries

Marty & Shannon, Jeff & Diane, Terry & Sherry, Cheryl & Rocco, Daniel & Kathy, Shelly, Trevor & Tanya & all your families, please accept our deep condolences in the loss of a very dear, caring man. David & I met Tony & enjoyed supper together in February just before COVID hit. Mom & Tony became great companions and sole mates during COVID. They sang “Baby We’re Really in Love” together every day for a couple years and mastered 100’s if not thousands of puzzles in “their corner!” They shared an orange each morning after Tony made a coffee & delivered it @ 8 o’clock sharp to mom’s suite. They ate suppers together in mom’s suite taking turns preparing the food. Tony loved pie and always made sure they had tasty dessert. Tony displayed remarkable patience for mom and was a smart, thoughtful & caring friend. They enjoyed going to the fitness room for many years, they sang in the choir, watched many ball games and enjoyed socializing with other residents. Tony came to mom’s rescue time & time again which saved what could have been numerous trips over to Green Falls for either Pam or I. The last year & prior to when mom’s memory deteriorated Tony really went above & beyond caring for mom and assisting her with daily routines, which we are forever grateful! He enjoyed visiting with our family whenever opportunity arose and was an attentive listener to all the farming and rodeo stories we shared & he enjoyed good laughter with us and over moms sense of humour that still continues. Thank you for including mom in many of your family celebrations & the kindnesses that you’ve extended to her. Blessings to your family as we cherish the wonderful memories of Tony. Love to you all!

So sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. I have so many great memories of your dad and family. All the camping trips we had together. Our families were inseparable in the summer. Oh to have those days back. Your tribute to your dad is heartwarming. Certainly captured the great life he lived. So glad that my dad was able to see him before he passed. He is now at peace and with your mom. Remember the great memories that you have and they will always keep him close. Love you all.

You will be missed, Uncle Tony.

I guess I knew Uncle Tony for well over 6 decades, and especially remember the incredible work that he did to install plumbing in the old house on the land we purchased from Van Allens south of Shaunavon in the mid-1950s. It was a luxury that was hard to describe after a few years of the old hand pump and hauling pails of water. As the years passed we had frequent visits with Uncle Tony and Aunt Gil either at our farm, in Shaunavon or in Regina. Always lots of laughs and shenanigans often involving many of the kids. He shared the love of baseball as I did and his involvement in the sport was recognized around Regina and the province. He also had a love for his Cadillacs. As far as I can remember he always had one and that suited him just fine. Work hard, drive a Cadillac. He will be greatly missed by many, and Donna and I offer our heartfelt condolences to his children and their families and his surviving siblings and their families. Hope to see many of you in the spring. Merry Christmas Uncle and may you rest in peace.

I first met Tony as Wilma's friend at Green Falls Landing. I really can't image meeting a kinder gentleman!! I'm so grateful for every Starbucks coffee and brownie we shared. Thanks always for your patience. You will be truly missed. My condolences to All the family. Olive Lauder

25 years we went across the line for the October weekend with Jill and Tony. What a great time we had I was watching the World Series, great fun camping very happy I got to see him for the last time go rest high on that mountain my friend many good memories with the Herback family

So sad to hear of Uncle Tony’s passing. I have many memories of him pinching my cheeks with his smile. He will be missed. Sending love and prayers to all the family, thinking of you❤️

What a fine Uncle I had the pleasure of knowing. And what a special family he raised. As I sit here tonight with a blizzard cranking outside I can’t help thinking of the many trips Uncle Tony must have made to this farm years ago. Even now when I turn a tap on my thoughts are when he did the plumbing in this house some 60 years ago or so. Still no leaks. A testament to a man of skill and integrity. Our thoughts are with his family. Love you guys.

Marty, Jeff, Terry, Dan, Cheryl, Shelley and Trevor. The Scott clan were all saddened by the news of Tony’s passing !! We have a lot of fond memories of family camping trips to buffalo pound and ball tournaments all over the place !! Tony can join Gil and Joanne’s coffee time up there !! Take care and big hugs to all of you ❤️ Ken, Beverley, Gina, Angie and Gerry

Very sorry to hear this. I’m Carew’s best friend. My condolences to Coach Dan/Kathy and the Herback family.
