Obituary of Erwin Clifford Siebert

Erwin Siebert, late of Southey, SK, passed away peacefully on December 8, 2022 at the age of 85 years. He was predeceased by his parents, Paul and Anna; brothers, Max and Calvin; sister Isabelle Schmidt; and stepson Doug Mayer. Erwin will be remembered by his wife Connie; sisters, Minnie Wagner, Flora Miller and Bernice Wilde; stepson Ralph(Sandra)Mayer; stepdaughter Joanne(Brent)Rein; step-grandchildren, Callum, Ross and Matthew Mayer, Kurt and Clint Rein; and step-great-grandchildren, Mackenzie, Avah, Dallas, Scarlett, Trey and Miles. Erwin was raised on his family farm in the Southey District, overlooking the Qu’Appelle Valley. He took over the farm as a young man after the passing of his father.  He married Connie Mayer in 1991 and they continued their passions of farming, hunting, fishing, antiquing and crafting. He was a “Jack of all trades,” a master of the wood lathe, and he could fix anything around the yard. Erwin enjoyed restoring antique equipment or fixing his own. He and Connie spent their free time travelling with family and friends or covering the province attending auction sales or fishing. After retiring to Southey, Erwin proudly displayed his auction finds in their new house and for many years continued to travel and tinkering with his woodworking projects.  The family wishes to thank the Pasqua Nursing Staff for their kindness and compassionate care for Erwin. A Funeral Service will take place at Emmanuel Lutheran Church, #265 Highway 6, Southey, SK on Thursday, December 15, 2022 at 1:00 PM with interment to follow at Emmanuel Lutheran Cemetery. Family and friends so wishing may make donations in memoriam to the Emmanuel Lutheran Church, Box 177, Southey, SK S0G 4P0.
