Obituary

Passed on June 28, 2020

January 29, 1947-June 28, 2020             Peacefully on June 28, 2020 after a brief battle with cancer Bert Bond of Teulon, Mb. passed away. Survived by his wife of 47 years Shirley, two daughters Crystal (Taylor, Coby) Ginger, Dale (Bryson) brothers Harold, Ward, Hugh and their families. He was predeceased by his parents William and Doris and grandson Jorden. Bert grew up in Teulon and attended Stacpoole School, Teulon Elementary, then high school he liked curling and 4-H. Bert met Shirley when he chased her around the rodeo dance in 1971 and they married in 1973, together they enjoyed camping trips, going for drives and attending Austin Threshermen”s Reunion. Bert attended Red River where he received his certificate in small engines, he also fixed alternators and starters for local farmers, he liked playing crib, accordion, and his endless coffee visits. He loved all sorts of animals especially his dog Sadie who was always by his side and his cat Lucky, along with all the dump cats from when he started at Teulon Rockwood Waste Disposal to present, we never knew what he would bring home, whether it was a feral cat or a dog that needed a new home. Bert loved his job, it was right up his alley meeting new people and talking their ear off, but most of all he loved spending endless hours with his three grandchildren teaching them how to drive, playing the “I”m gonna get you game!” or their first bad word, he loved them dearly. We will always have memories of his crooked hat, his sense of humour, that smiling face and of course his driving. A come and go celebration of life will be held on July 26, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. at the original family farm located 2 3/4 miles east of Hwy 17 and 7. (Home of Harold Bond) Please me mindful of social distancing. We would like to thank Selkirk Hospital for there care of Bert, family, friends for the food, cards and all the phone calls. Ken Loehmer for his guidance and compassion. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Teulon Food Bank (Teulon Senior Resource Center) or bring a non perishable food item to the celebration.
