1928 - 2024
On May 9th Carl Henry Willberg went to his Creator and Redeemer.
Carl was born to George and Amelia Willberg in Tompkins Saskatchewan in 1928. Carl was the sixth of nine children, and his generation passes with him.
To mourn his passing and celebrate his life Carl leaves his devoted wife Patricia; his two sons, Wayne (Angela) and Dean (Laurie); grandchildren Alyssa (Dallas), Connor, Owen and Frances (Collin); and great grandchildren Willa and Isla. Carl was also the jolly – somewhat mischievous – uncle to many nieces, nephews, and children of life-long friends.
Carl’s life’s calling was construction, and many work colleagues became cherished life-long friends. He loved the mountains and foothills where he worked, and he fought the wind to a draw.
Carl and Patricia enjoyed entertaining at their home, picnicking in Waterton, and taking long road-trips together. He enjoyed fishing, hunting or golfing with family and friends.
In lieu of flowers, please go catch a fish, play a round of golf, plant a tree, or rototill your neighbor’s garden.
Our family would like to express our deepest appreciation and gratitude to the staff at Seasons Encore, and to the nurses, doctors and staff at Olds Hospital for caring for Carl through his final days. Your professionalism, kindness and good cheer was a blessing to Carl, and to our entire family.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday June 8th at the Pomeroy Inn and Suites, Olds at 2:00p.m. Heartland Funeral Services Ltd., Olds entrusted with arrangements. Condolences may be made or viewed at www.heartlandfuneralservices.com
