Roy Sterenberg

Official Obituary of

19/5/1934 - to - 22/10/2014

Roy Sterenberg 1934 ~ 2014 Mr. Roy Sterenberg of Lethbridge, beloved husband of Mrs. Ann Sterenberg, passed away peacefully with his family at his side, to be with his Lord and Saviour at the age of 80 years. He was born in Lethbridge and grew up in Nobleford. He and his siblings helped their parents on the farm and Roy came away with a strong sense of family, the value of hard work and the memories of their occasional mischievous boyhood pranks. In 1958, Roy met the love of his life, Ann, whom he married a year later. Forever a faithful, diligent, hardworking employee, Roy started at Dick Stevenson Excavation until he began work with Cunningham and Shannon where he remained for many years. During this time, he pursued his passion for flying and obtained his pilot's licence. After approx. 17 years, he began working at Jobe Sand and Gravel where he remained until retirement. Even upon retiring, Roy could not sit still so he helped with playground installations with Whitney and Gwen. Roy, in keeping with his 'inventor' side, often created new methods and tools - still being utilized today, making installations easier. Besides his loving wife Ann, Roy is survived by his children Gwen (Whitney) Atchison, Barb (Larry) Marchuk, Rod (Deirdre) Sterenberg, and Tanya (Elbert) Van Hierden. Roy also leaves behind his grandchildren, Kelsey, Kyle, Kassidy, Kalin, Kailagh, Emilie, Tyler, Cheyenne and Mataya as well as his great grandson Kaidence and numerous nieces, nephews and their families. Roy is also survived by his sister Anne Havinga (Joe); brothers Tom (Evelyn), Bernard (Willy), Clarence (Linda), and sister Janet Weening (Phil); and sister in law Grace (George) Quincy. Roy was predeceased by his parents Berend and Klasina, infant brother John, his eldest brother John and his wife Marie, infant sisters Janette and Janet, brothers-in- law, John, Hans and Jack Taal and Herb Moch. A celebration of Roy's life will be held at 2:00 pm, on Wednesday, October 22, 2014 at the MIZ CITY CHURCH, 501 13 Street North, Lethbridge. Send condolences at www.mbfunerals.com
