Milton Gordon Scheuer

It is with heavy hearts we announce the peaceful passing of Milton (Mickey) Gordon Scheuer, beloved husband, father, uncle, great uncle and great great uncle on Friday August 18, 2023 at the age of 86, in Weyburn, Saskatchewan, surrounded by his family and close friends.

Mickey was predeceased by his parents, Jacob & Magdalena Scheuer; sisters, Freida Victoria Cook, Lydia Ottilia (Leta) Ross and Eleanor (Sally) Mildred Hillier; brothers, Edmond Christian Shire and Herold (Harry) Scheuer.

Mickey is survived by his loving wife of 61 years, Rose Myrna Scheuer of Weyburn, SK; daughters, Vanessa & Melanie Scheuer of Saskatoon, SK; special niece & third daughter, Donna Scheuer of Estevan, SK; brother, Rheinhold (Ronald) Howard Scheuer of Cochrane, AB as well as many nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, great great nieces and nephews and a wide circle of cherished friends.

Mickey was a humble man, an avid seeker of knowledge and read voraciously. He was funny with a quick wit and loved to tell jokes. There was nothing he loved more than to have coffee with friends or a beer at the legion. He would lend a helping hand to anyone. Mickey was a fixer extraordinaire and if he couldn't fix it no one could. Mickey loved a good joke and was an amazing story teller.

He thought of every stranger as a potential friend and made friends with everyone. Mickey had a heart of gold and if you were his friend you were truly blessed. When you spent time with him, you were left with your heart well hugged, a kind grin and a sparkle from his blue eyes.

As per Mickey's wishes, there will be no funeral held. A Gathering of Mickey's Family & Friends took place on Saturday, August 26, 2023 at 2:00 p.m.at Cecilia's Banquet Hall & Restaurant, Weyburn, Saskatchewan. All were welcome and many came and shared their memories. Interment will take place at a later date.
