Wilford George Grassick -

Obituary, Thursday, August 8, 2002;
The Leader-Post, Regina, SK

Willford George Grassick or "Bill" passed away at the Regina General Hospital in the early hours of August 3, 2002. He was 91. Bill was predeceased by his parents, George and Alice Grassick and by two sisters, Margaret Grassick and Violet Dunn, and by his brother Duncan Grassick. Bill is survived by his wife, Maude, sisters Fern Jones and Evelyn Christopherson, sisters-in-law Jo Grassick, Molly Walden and Kay Ullcland and brothers-in-law Ernie Cunningham and Bob Cathcart, step-son Terry Chapman, grandchildren Saron Forseth, Murray Chapman, Leslie Chapman three great-grandchildren Jeremy, Kevin, and Jason Humeniuk plus numerous nieces and nephews.

Bill farmed with Dunc at Yellow Grass from the age of 16 until he retired. Bill and Dunc were great partners, Dunc hated the cattle and Bill could listen to the scream of a dry bearing for days without fliching. However, a sick lamb or calf got his full attention immediately, often ending up in a box behind the kitchen stove, nursed back to health with the help of brandy, which Bill would occasionally share with his little patient.

Horses and cattle were his passion and he was quite a cowboy. Bill was the original "Quiet Man" and he will be missed. Bill spent the last almost two years of his life at Hayes Haven in Indian Head and thanks to the staff there, he came to consider it his home.

A graveside memorial service for family and friends will be held at Yellow Grass at a later date.

Donations may be made to the Yellow Grass Church of Christ. Arrangements have been entrusted to the Hastings-Dionne Funeral Home.
