Digger was born in Lethbridge on July 15, 1932, raised in Sundial and Turin then retired in 1993 to Picture Butte.
He was a loyal community member of many organizations including the Tractor Club, Elks, Legion, Ag Society and President of "Coffee Row". His positive cheerful outlook on life was an inspiration to everyone. Digger's attitude towards life is one we can all learn from. He was always optimistic, never complained, loved life, family, friends and his community. He will be missed by all who knew him.
A Memorial Service will be held at MCKILLOP UNITED CHURCH, 2329-15 Avenue South, Lethbridge, AB., on Monday, November 23, 2015 at 11:00 A.M. with Pastor Glenda Wert officiating.
If family and friends so desire, donations may be made in Digger's name to a charity of your choice.
