Home-calls
Violet Gohm of Arnstein, ON, on February 1, age 90. As a young woman, Violet moved west where she married John Hagglund and had three children: Eric, Myrtle, and Edith. After John’s death in 1958, she moved back to this area and then married Les Gohm in 1962. Violet had been saved as a young girl and, after re-marrying, came into the assembly. Together they were faithful to the assembly, often entertaining the Lord’s servants in their home. Les predeceased her in September 2006. She will be much missed by her family. Her last days were spent in Barrie with her daughter, Myrtle, who lovingly cared for her. The funeral was taken by D. Nicholson and D. Robertson.
Dr. Gerold Brandt of Marion, IA, on March 1, age 91. He was born in 1915, and saved in 1938 through John 5:24 after an enlightening visit with Oliver Smith. He married Helen Heath in 1940. For 28 years Gerold worked as a vet in the Garnavillo area, and for 56 years he and his wife were totally committed to being examples to the flock. As an esteemed overseer, our brother labored in the Word and taught the saints. In 1996 they moved to Marion where they eventually became residents of Linn Manor. “The memory of the just is blessed,” (Prov 10:7). Surviving are two sons, David and Tom and spouses, two daughters, Jean Vizzini and Joan Finn, and one son-in-law, Jim Sluiter. Gerold was predeceased by his wife Helen in 2002 and daughter Janice in 2005. E. McCullough and A. Christopherson shared in the funeral service.
Linda Grieves of Victoria Road, ON, on March 3, age 57. Linda grew up in the Lindsay, ON, area and was reached with the gospel in that town in 1984. Linda and her husband, Glen, were received into the fellowship of the Victoria Road assembly. For the last three years of her life, she patiently endured a lingering illness. She is survived by her husband, and sons, Chris and Tim. The large funeral was attended by many unconverted and numerous family members. The service was taken by F. Krauss.
Edwin Brundage of Vancouver, BC, on March 8, age 89. Our brother was saved in 1936 in Swan River, MB, after having been convicted of his need at a Portage conference through the preaching of Herb Harris. He was faithful to the assembly in Minnitonas for many years until he and his wife Olive (called home in 1997) moved to Vancouver in 1993 where they were in fellowship in the Victoria Dr. assembly. For a short time he was in a care home in Abbotsford before his home-call. Nine of his children, all saved, with many grandchildren, were present at the funeral which was taken by P. Broadhead and D. Smith, with tributes from his son David and his grandson Chad. C. Thulien spoke at the graveside.
Mrs. Phyllis Wood of Englehart, ON, on March 10, age 79, just three months after her husband, Gordon. She is survived by three daughters and sons-in-law, six grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. As a young woman she sat under the preaching of the late B. Widdifield and E. Dellandrea and was saved in the Spring of 1949. She taught Sunday School and was a real influence to the many girls that passed through her class. Her home was known for its hospitality, and many Sunday nights ended with a gathering in her home for singing with Phyllis at the piano. In later years her kind and encouraging notes were a help to many. Her nephew Bruce Rodgers took the funeral service, while grandsons Jared Pratt spoke of her conversion and Aaron Garnham passed along memories of the family. The large funeral gathering spoke well of her testimony in the town.
Bernice Leerhoff of San Diego, CA, on March 14, age 100. Our sister was born in Parkersburg, IA, and saved in 1932. In 1968, she and her husband moved to San Diego where she was in happy fellowship until her homecall. Our sister was a true help-meet to her husband, Heiko, until he was taken home. She bore a bright testimony and was faithful to the assembly. She is survived by a daughter, Ruth, and son, Robert (Fresno), four grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. R. Eadie took the funeral service.
Medora Bodnaruk of Portage la Prairie, MB, age 84, passed into the presence of the Lord on March 26. Our dear sister was saved in 1951. She and her husband Nick were first contacted at street meetings held by James Ronald Sr. and Earl Ritchie in 1961. The Bodnaruks drove 30 miles every night to attend a series of gospel meetings and Nick was saved at that time. They were in the Togo, SK, azssembly for a number of years and latterly in Portage where they were marked by hospitality and faithful attendance at the assembly meetings. Predeceased by her husband Nick in 2005, she is survived by her two sons, a daughter, and eight grandchildren.
