Obituaries

With great love we announce the graduation of Ernest Gibson at the age of 76, at home, just as he wanted to go.

Ernest was predeceased by his sister Lunette. He is survived by his sisters Heather (Larry) and Stacy (Robert); children Jared (Mandy), Gabriel, and Jesse (Donna); grandsons Devan, Connor, and Franklin.

Ernest returned to his hometown in Regina, Saskatchewan over the past years and drove cab. He had great appreciation for his prairie ancestors and knew the history of the Wilsons and the Gibsons. He was a complex man, deeply philosophical, idealistic, lived a life full of spirit, but was often disappointed in the state of humanity. He’d say “People, Be Civilized”.

He had a childlike enthusiasm for all things, and we’ll miss his booming laughter, intense blue eyes, beautiful smile, and soft-hearted gratitude for “living in grace.”

Ernest would want us to celebrate his God-given life and have us singing “Sentimental Journey”.

Family and friends will get together later for a Memorial Service.
