Jeff Hirtle
September 30, 1966–July 8, 2021
As published in the July 19, 2021 World-Spectator
With broken hearts, we announce the passing of Jeff Hirtle on Thursday, July 8, 2021, at Arcola Hospital.
Jeff is survived by his sons Shane (Kendra) Hirtle and Jesse Hirtle, grandson Cohen Hirtle, his mother Gwen Hirtle, sister Wendy (Ken) Slade and sweetheart Laura Dunn. He is predeceased by his father, Wayne Hirtle.
Jeff began school in Carlyle, Saskatchewan and then completed elementary and high school in Wawota after the family moved to the farm. After high school, Jeff attended Brandon College to take a one year course in auto bodywork. His dabbling in bodywork and farming soon gave way to work as a battery operator. Most of his career continued in the oilfield industry working as a superintendent and a consultant where he was greatly respected.
Jeff enjoyed many outdoor passions including hunting, archery, boating, fishing and snowmobiling. His interest in fitness drew him to many years of involvement with the Moose Mountain Wado-Kai Karate Club in Carlyle. He enjoyed the challenge of the competitions and the special connections gained while teaching the younger members.
Jeff was a perfectionist, and his love of precision could be seen in anything he did, whether it was a perfectly manicured lawn or any construction project he put his hands to.
We will always carry our memories of Jeff close to our hearts.
In lieu of flowers, memorial tributes may be made to the Arcola Health Centre, the Regina Humane Society or a charity of your choice.
A celebration of his life was held on the Hirtle Family farm on Friday July 16, 2021.
