Our dad, Roy Tornberg passed away peacefully September 23. He was the third eldest of his family. He was born in Viceroy, SK on October 25, 1930. He worked in Moose Jaw at various jobs and became a carpenter. In 1948 he married our mom and worked in Moose Jaw for a while before we moved to Lafleche, SK. Dad worked with the school unit there. His dream was to go farming, so in 1957 he moved us all to Sonningdale area where they farmed a lot of years together: That’s where Wayne was born in 1966.

In later years they moved to Battleford where they both worked for the school. Sadly, mom passed away in 1992. Our dad liked to work with horses, he loved to be involved in a lot of clubs in the Battlefords and they also ran a harness shop. He was very active in the community.

He is predeceased by his wife, Doris; second wife, Bev; brother and sisters: Violet, Alice, Walter, Bev, Wade & Randy Tornberg; son-in-law, Randy Armstrong.

He is survived by his children and their families: Darryl (Sandra), Gail, Penny (Tom), Wayne; grandchildren: Leslie, Keith (Jess), Colin, Amber, Yvonne (Tom), Trevor (Christine), Dwayne, Daniel (Carleen), Will (Peyton), Wesley and Wyatt; numerous great and great-great-grandchildren; extended family: Pat (Bill), Val (Miche), Nancy (Darren), Clarence (Wendy), Chris (Cora); he is also survived by his partner, Bertha and her family at the time of his death.
