It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend on the 7th of December 2012 at the age of 84. Art was born on the farm near Yellow Grass on May 10, 1928 the sixth and youngest child of Louis and Emily Weber. He started his farming career when he bought land with his father in the RM of Griffin in 1945. He lived his life as a farmer taking great pride in all that he did. Art was very mechanically inclined. He held a US patent for one of his inventions. When others were in need he was always ready to support them with whatever was required. After retiring from his first career of farming, Art focused on his secondary career of coffee row, visiting his friends every day whether in the coffee shop or in the nursing homes. He was blessed with a quick wit and a mischievous spirit. He enjoyed all that life had to offer. He was able to relate to people from all backgrounds. Art loved music and enjoyed entertaining others whether with a piano, guitar, mouth organ or song. He always had time for his wife, his children and their spouses, his grandchildren and his numerous nieces and nephews. He is survived by his wife of 41 years Vivian, his children Trent (Joanne) Weber of Winnipeg, MB and Vance (Kim) Weber of Wolesley, and his four grandchildren Ashley, Varrick, Bethannie, and Ella.
