Val was predeceased by his parents Lars and Mary, and infant daughter Noreen Jean and his brother Melvin & step son Junior.
Val was born December 11, 1932 at Kipling Saskatchewan. He grew up on the family farm becoming a successful dairy farmer and then in later years he became an owner of the Preeceville motel. Val continued to work on through his retirement employed by the RCMP detachment in Broadview. Val could fix anything, he had tons of patience to tinker for hours to make sure everything was perfect; he was for many of us our repair man. Throughout his lifetime Val enjoyed snowmobiling, quading and fishing with his many friends. Val was a gifted wood crafter, creating beautiful Swedish rolling pins. He had a passion for music and loved to dance, traveling miles to dance halls in the surrounding communities.
Left to mourn his death is his loving wife Arleen, 2 stepdaughters, Cheryl Harbus, Newmarket Ontario, Gloria Harbus (Bill) Regina Saskatchewan, 5 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren.
A private family interment will take place at a later date at Balcarres Cemetery.
