David Heisler

HEISLER, DAVID MICHAEL- died March 30, 2008 at the age of 62 years from a superbug infection. He was born on November 8, 1945 in London, England. Dave grew up in Regina, which was home until 2006 when he moved to Weyburn. Sport activities were David's life. Throughout his thirty-five year career with the City of Regina Parks and Recreation Department, he met many people in the sports community. He played baseball, football, and hockey and he also enjoyed water skiing and golf. His passion was to stay fit so he played floor hockey, lifted weights, and jogged regularly. He was a member of the YMCA Men's Club. His proudest moments came as a father as his daughters were involved in higher levels of sport, both in soccer and basketball. He umpired ball for a number of years. He loved dogs, time at the beach, summers at Chaffey's Locks, camping, and playing with his children. He loved being out doors and he took pride in his yard. He was always eager to lend a helping hand. Dave was predeceased by his father Tony in 2002. He is survived by his mother Helen, his wife Dale Anderson Heisler, his daughters Crystal and Brittany, their mother Pam, his granddaughter Aija, his sister Jeannette (Randy) Hargreaves, her children Chad and Jade Graves, his step-children Alex, Levi, Abby, and Jenna, their spouses and children, and many wonderful in-laws.
