Jerome Vertefeuille

VERTEFEUILLE-Jerome was born March 23, 1932 in Montmartre, SK and died March 6, 2005 in Regina, SK. He was predeceased by his parents Lucien and Maximilienne Vertefeuille; brothers-inlaw, Gerry Giroux and Tom Bealieu. Jerome will be lovingly remembered and missed by his companion Nettie Weisgerber; his children, Diane (Gerald) Hendry, Rebecca, Daniel and Stephanie, Susan (Rick) Bereti, Taylor and Melissa; his siblings, Annette Giroux, Rachelle (Nick) Kaczmar, Laura Beaullieu, Rhea` (Jules) Bilodeau, Leonard, Lucienne, Dolores (Henry) Gdanski, Norman (Shirley), Raymond (Geraldine); and many nieces, nephews, cousins and wonderful friends. Jerry was born and raised on a farm near Montmartre and moved to Regina to begin a career in construction in 1952. He enjoyed many years as a foreman with Hilsden and Co. (TelMed) before his retirement. Jerry never really retired however, as he was happy to lend a hand to a friend when concrete needed to be poured, a window installed or levels 'shot'. Jerry's great love was the game of curling, which he played until the week before his death. We will remember him whistling all the time as he went about his activities tending his garden or puttering at the cottage. The family would like to thank Dr. Pacella, Dr. Chalchal and all the caring staff at the Allan Blair Cancer Clinic.
