Obituary of Klas KROEKER

April 13, 1925 – Wymark, Saskatchewan December 27, 2017 – Calgary, Alberta Nick, beloved husband of the late Marian Kroeker of Calgary, AB, passed away on December 27, 2017 at the age of 92 years. Nick was born in Wymark, SK as the sixth of ten children of Jacob and Helena Kroeker. Nick joined the RCAF in 1940 to serve in WWII, and remained as a career airman for twenty-two years. In 1950 he married Marian Condy and became the devoted father of daughter Brenda Ince (David) of Coquitlam, BC, and son Brian Kroeker (Maligne) of Red Deer, AB. After a career of service in the Air Force, Nick settled his family in Calgary in a second career in seismic data processing. As an Airforce and war veteran, and later as a life-time member of the Royal Canadian Legion, Nick learned and passed on the values of service, duty and honor to his children, values which have helped shape a new generation. He was an avid bridge player and bowler as long as his health allowed. Nick was predeceased by his loving wife of sixty years in 2011, but is survived by his two children, six grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. A private service of rememberance will be held at a later date. The family gratefully acknowledges the services of McInnis & Holloway’s Fish Creek Chapel. Condolences may be forwarded through www.mcinnisandholloway.com. Gifts and memorial tributes are gratefully declined. Instead, our wish from you is only good memories of a hard-working and devoted father who sacrificed often to build a better future for his family.
