Erv, a friend and neighbour. My wife and I have known Irv since we moved next door in 1997. Over time we became friends, always looking forward to a chat at our garages where he always ended the conversation with a joke. Three times he helped us with purchasing vehicles. On one occasion when we were purchasing our Volkswagen, I learned first hand how the master negotiator gets his deals. He enjoyed the process and was always excited to help out.

Every day I go by the house, I imagine him walking his and Helen’s dog. We guess now he’s walking his Barney again. Miss you lots,

Bill snd Darla

Uncle Erv I really did not get to know well until later in life as I would spend time with Helen and Erv in their home as they hosted me while I stayed in Calgary.

My fondest moments are the times we sat in the kitchen, discussing variable topics, the Kingdom of God, miracles, signs, wonders, and End day prophecy, some of my most favourite topics. He would talk for many hours and just like a Braun, his knowledge, and excitement was contagious and exhilarating.

His ability to give and not expect much back in return was uncanny. Aunt Helen and Uncle Erv helped me during some of my more trying times in my life and Erv brought such comfort.

The last time I saw and heard from him was in August. He was so full of life and I just loved our times together. He was so generous with so much and I will never forget him as he inspired me to move forward and not to be afraid of the future and taking chances.

May the Lord Bless you all and may HIS peace cover you like a wrap-around blanket.

I will miss you greatly Uncle Erv. Until we meet again.

To Helen, Paula, Cathy and family,

I worked for Erv at Canadian Leisure RV and he was the best boss and even greater friend.

I miss him deeply. Every time I walk into the office and don't see his smiling face and hear his crazy jokes makes me very sad.

I loved coming to work, Erv made it enjoyable and fun. Some days, we laughed so hard, we couldn't even look at each other.

My heartfelt condolences to all of you
