Ralph Michael Hazelwanter

It is with profound sadness that the family of Ralph Hazelwanter announces his passing Friday, July 21st. Ralph was predeceased by his son Lyle Hazelwanter. He is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Gertie; his daughter Karen Hazelwanter-Bradford and his sons Doug (Lennette) Hazelwanter and Brian (Melissa) Hazelwanter; his grandchildren Morgan (Cindy) Bradford, Lindsay Bradford, Aaron (Shanda) Bradford, Kimberly (David) Bollen, Jordan (Lisa) Bradford, Leif Hazelwanter, Lars Hazelwanter, Arora Hazelwanter, Gunnar Hazelwanter, Tyler (élan) Hazelwanter, Tanner Hazelwanter, Shauna Gerlinsky, Ashley Monson, Cassidy (Taylor) Hazelwanter, Coral Hazelwanter, Daemond (Kylie) Hazelwanter and Haley Hazelwanter; and 11 great-grandchildren.

He was known to "toot" his horn whenever asked and played music for over 40 years. He was very proud to play the last 20+ years with his own band, "Ralph's Rhythm Kings". He took great pride in cheering on his grandkids from the sidelines at their various sporting activities, being their #1 fan. But most of all, he was known for his deep love for his family.

A Memorial Service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, July 31, 2023 at Acadia Funeral Chapel (915 Acadia Drive, Saskatoon).

Arrangements entrusted to Travis Minor.
