He lived on the homestead and farmed with his dad until meeting his sweetheart Debbie(Henchel) in 1969. They married on April 25th, 1970 and immediately started their family. Peter had a very adventurous life and many different careers throughout his younger years but eventually ended back to farming with his dad until he retired in 1994. After retirement his life took on a whole new role as full-time “nanny” until his last grandchild was old enough to care for themselves. Peter loved and cherished his children but becoming a grandpa changed his world. He loved spending his days with them and had his own unique relationship with each and everyone. Peter will be dearly missed and we invite you to come and celebrate his life with us.
The prayer service was held Friday October 18th at 7 PM at Little FlowerParish in Leader, Saskatchewan and the funeral service was on Saturday October 19th at 1 PM in Leader, Saskatchewan.

LUCY ROLLHEISER

1930 ~ LUCY ROLLHEISER ~ 2024
Lucy Marie Rollheiser of Medicine Hat, beloved wife and mother/(great)grandmother, passed away on Sunday, October 13th, 2024 at the age of 94 years. She leaves to cherish her memory her children, Steven (Kathy) Rollheiser and Barbara (Phillip) Grehan; grandchildren, Tareyn (Brandon), Alex (Kira), Katie, Rachel, Mark, Eric, and Clare; great-grandchildren, Leon, Everett, Stevie, and Rasmus; sister-in-law, Liz Rollheiser; as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Lucy was preceded in death by her parents, Jacob and Brigetta Wist, her husband, Florian Rollheiser, and all her siblings.
Lucy Rollheiser (nee Wist) was the youngest of 12 children and born in the family farmhouse in Liebenthal, SK to German immigrants from the Volga River basin area of Russia. Her childhood was framed by the Dirty ’30s/Great Depression, a hard-scrabble life on a pioneer prairie homestead, and being the youngest in a BIG family. She had a fierce desire to carve out her own path, and pursued getting an education despite parental incomprehension of her choice. She met husband-to-be Florian in high school, and after brief training in Moose Jaw, embarked on a 35+ year successful teaching career that started with a one-room schoolhouse in the corner of a Denzil area field, then to several small schools in the Meadow Lake district, and eventually to the multi-room school in Goodsoil, SK. Over several years, Lucy and Florian worked to get B. Ed. degrees from the U of S and eventually moved to Saskatoon with their two children to finish their teaching careers. They retired in 1980, and relocated to Medicine Hat, first to an acreage on Holsom Road, and later to their Park Meadows condo. Widowed in 2010, Lucy continued to enjoy a healthy, active, and independent life until a massive heart attack that led to her death about two weeks later.
Lucy loved her husband and family, gardening, playing cards and tile rummy, telling jokes, writing and performing skits, playing the slots at the casino, and connecting with the many friends and relatives in and around Medicine Hat and elsewhere. She remained a devout and involved Catholic until her death, having supported the CWL for over 60 years and praying daily for a long and evolving list of family and loved ones facing difficulties. She was generous to relatives in need and supported numerous charities.
Lucy’s family wants to thank the staff and doctors on 4W at MHRH and Carmel Hospice at St. Joseph’s Home for their excellent and compassionate care and recognize the many friends and relatives for their amazing support and friendship extended to Lucy over the years.
The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at Holy Family Parish, 1451 Strachan Road SE, Medicine Hat, AB T1B 4V3, on Saturday, October 26th, 2024, at 10:30 am with Fr. Iqbal Khurshid, Celebrant. Lunch will be provided in the Church Hall by the CWL at 11:30 am followed by interment in the Roman Catholic Section at Saamis Prairie View Cemetery. If unable to attend the Mass, family and friends are welcome to participate via live stream by logging on to youtube.com and joining the live webcast at Medicine Hat Holy Family Church. Memorial gifts in Lucy’s memory may be made to the Root Cellar, 440 Maple Avenue SE, Medicine Hat, AB T1A 0L3.
