Edmund Willie Pranke
September 4, 1931– September 9, 2018
As published in the September 24, 2018 World-Spectator
Son of Gus and Amanda Pranke, brother to the late Adolf Pranke and sisters Eugenie Pranke and Lydia (Pranke) Ber, one nephew Bernard Pranke and one grand-nephew Benjamin Pranke.
Edmund passed away peacefully at Broadview Centennial Lodge. He had been a successful farmer in the Moosomin area.
He was able to drive a hard bargain and was known for keeping his word.
Some of his achievements include a Certificate in Diesel Engineering and the thoughtful expansion of the family farm. He took pride in the care and quality of his livestock and the grains he produced.
Interment will take place in Mountain View Cemetery, Lethbridge, Alberta at a later date.
We wish to extend a heartfelt thank you to the management, doctors and staff at the Broadview Centennial Lodge for the excellent care he received over the past five years.
Contributions in memoriam may be made to the Broadview and District Health Foundation, P.O. Box 849, Broadview S0G 0K0.
