In a celebration of life, we announce the passing of George Schaefer, late of Regina on October 24, 2023, just short of 102 years old. George was predeceased by his beloved wife, whom he loved so much, Valerie Schaefer; 7 brothers, 1 sister, and 1 daughter- in-law Sharon. He is survived by his 5 children, Richard, Henry, Phyllis (Greg), Ronald (Margerite), Vernon (Donna); 10 Grandchildren and 14 Great Grandchildren. George led his life in great faith and his belief in the Lord carried him through good and bad times. While helping raise his family, he worked on the railroad, farmed, and fixed televisions for his neighbours. After moving from Griffin, Saskatchewan to reside in Regina, Saskatchewan, George continued to work before living life as a snowbird with Valerie, enjoying their time travelling. George was notorious for sharing jokes with friends and family, watching wrestling, football, and hockey. He truly loved life; and his pureness, positive humour, and loving energy was contagious and still shone bright until he passed. The family would like to thank Kozy Korner, as well as Grace Hospice for the short time that he spent there. A Prayer service will be at Victoria Funeral Home, 2080 Victoria Ave E on October 26, 2023 at 7:00 pm , and the Funeral Service will be held at Holy Cross Parish, 315 Douglas Ave E on October 27, 2023 at 1:00 pm. Interment at Riverside Cemetery with lunch to follow at Holy Cross Parish.
