EMIL WILLIAM BAHT
Emil passed away peacefully early on Tuesday, January 1, 2013 after having spent the previous day visiting with each of his children and other members of his family.
Emil was born February 8, 1925, at Imperial, Sask. As a young man, he worked at Clarkson’s Garage where he met his future bride Anne Clarkson, whom he married in 1949. While helping Anne to raise their family of seven, Emil farmed his parents’ land, worked at the rink, and owned the Etter’s Beach store. The work nearest his heart, though, was farming, from which he retired only last year.
Emil was proud of his family and looked forward to the family gatherings.
He really enjoyed the game of cribbage and, right up to a few hours before his passing, played each game with enthusiasm.
Emil was predeceased by his parents George-Emil and Louise; his wife Anne (1984); four brothers and two sisters. He is survived by his children Robert (Faye), David (Merlane), Jeannette Anderson (Garry), Murray (Louise), Garnet (Francine), Joanne Romich (Darwin), Micheal (Myrna); his brother William (Lucy); his brother-in-law Lynn Clarkson (Margaret-Anne); his sisters-in law, Joy Baht and Ethel Clarkson; fifteen grandchildren; twelve great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Emil’s memory, may be made to Chip and Dale Homes Inc., (granddaughter Amanda Baht’s special needs home) 75 Kress Street, Regina, SK, S4N 5X8.
