It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of our father and grandfather, Dennis Ehman, who left us suddenly on August 6, 2018. Dennis was born at Holdfast, Saskatchewan, on June 14, 1936. He farmed nearby at Craik, first with his father Robert “Bob,” and later with his son, Tom. He was a graduate of the College of Agriculture, University of Saskatchewan, where he met his bride Gail (O’Hara) Ehman. They married on July 9, 1960, and raised four children on the farm, before retiring into Craik (in summer) and to Mesa, Arizona (in winter). Dennis is predeceased by Gail and their infant son, Michael, and by his parents Robert and Irene. He leaves to mourn his children Amy Jo (John Bertolini), Maureen (Tony Oleskiw), Tom (Tallie) and Jim (Sherrie), and four grandchildren Evan, Emily, Megan and Amanda, as well as his sisters, Elaine Baker and Kathleen Loffler, Gail’s sister Peggy Salmon, and their families. A funeral for Dennis will take place at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, August 15, at St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church in Craik, followed by a luncheon in the Legion Hall. In lieu of flowers, donations are gratefully accepted for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s research.
