Jacob Hildebrand
1921 ~ 2022
It is with profound sadness that our family announces the peaceful passing of our father, Jacob S Hildebrand on Thursday February 17, 2022 at the Pembina Manitou Health Centre.
Dad leaves a legacy of love with his children, Rita, Ron (Gerri), Brenda, Orville (Anne), Calvin, Debbie, Cindy (Richard) and Denise as well as grandsons, Rene, Paul, Cameron, Euan, Michael Leo and Gunther and granddaughters, Janelle, Jayelyn and Nicole. Dad is survived by his brother, Ed and sister, Anne Peters (Abe). He was predeceased by his wife, Henrietta (Braun) in 1999 and his son, Raymond in 2019. He is also predeceased by nine of his siblings.
Dad was born in Silberfeld near Gretna on April 22, 1921, growing up on a farm with eleven siblings. He spent most of his life farming in the Mowbray area where he and his wife raised a family of nine children. In his later years he retired to Morden where he lived with his son, Calvin.
The family would like to thank all of dad's caregivers and especially the staff at the Personal Care Home in Manitou. Your efforts to keep dad comfortable during his stay is greatly appreciated.
A family service will be held at a later date. Family will be notified when arrangements are complete. In lieu of flowers donations in Jake’s memory may be made to a charity of your choice.
