Emil went to Olds College in the Agricultural field where he met his "lovely wife Sandy". He was an avid golfer, a 16-year member at the Meadowlands Golf Club and thought of himself as a master fisherman. Emil loved to make people laugh and smile with his warped sense of humour.

We ask that in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Red Deer Hospice in Emil's name. There are no words to describe our gratitude for all their caring and guidance in our time of need.
