It is with heavy hearts the family of Don Schmiedge announces his passing. Born October 20, 1943 Don passed June 11, 2018. Predeceased by parents Ted and Annie and brother Ken, Don leaves to mourn wife Nola, sons Trent (Andree), Chad (Kris) and grandchildren Ben and Kate, niece Rachelle (Tina and Kelly) brother Gary (Lana) and many more nieces, nephews, family and friends.
Don farmed, raised purebred Herford cattle, raised and raced standardbred horses, hunted and fished summer and winter. He served 18 years on Davidson Town Council and several years as a director and President of the Saskatchewan Standardbred Horse Racing Association.
The centre and love of his life was his family. Don followed wherever the family took him be it the hockey rink, soccer field, night clubs to hear the Blue Mules, dance recitals to see his Katie dance or building in the backyard – forts, birdhouses, or whatever his kids or grandkids wanted. When Grandpa and Ben made a building supply run, GPS in hand, we never knew when they would be back or what they would be back with. Greatly loved and sadly missed by all.
