Peacefully on February 2, 2012 at Bethania Mennonite Personal Care Home, Andrew J. (Jeep) Enns passed away at the age of 87. Jeep is survived by his son, Gordon of Selkirk, his daughter, Bobbie (Darryl) and one sister, Frieda Potempa of Winnipeg. He was predeceased by his wife, Mary, his sisters Mary Ediger, Anita Olfert and Anne Braun and his brother, Charlie Enns. Jeep was proud to have served his country in the Air Force during WWII in England and Belgium. Upon returning home he went to work with his father in the carpentry trade. His skill and knowledge lead him to a position with the federal Department of Veteran's Affairs and later with Indian and Northern Affairs. His time was also spent hunting and fishing with his good buddy, Eric Roberts and his bother-in-law, Dan. After his retirement, Jeep took up golf and spent numerous mornings at Rossmere Golf and Country Club. But his true passion was music, spending 61 years Barbershop Quartet singing and over 50 years in the John Black Memorial United Church Choir. The family wishes to thank all the caregivers at Irene Baron Eden Centre and Bethania Mennonite Personal Care Home for their patience and care during Jeep's last couple of years. Funeral services will be held at 11:00am, Monday, February 13, 2012 at John Black Memorial United Church, 898 Henderson Highway, Winnipeg. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Cancer Care or the charity of your choice.
Arrangements under the direction of Klassen Funeral Home, Winnipeg, MB.
