Eulogy for My Dad

It's amazing to be a part of a faith community that cares. Here is the wonderful email sent out by the Albert District of PAOC regarding my Dad.

It is with sadness, we inform you that Rev. Ernest (Ernie) Siggelkow passed into the presence of the Lord early on Father’s Day, Sunday, June 15, 2008 at the age of 90. To cherish his memory, he leaves his wife, Rev. Hilda (Mueller) Siggelkow, and their sons, Rev. Darcy (Aileen) Siggelkow of Nanaimo, B.C. and Rev. Dallas (Heather) Siggelkow of Vegreville, Alberta. Ernie was predeceased by his first wife, Clara (Lincoln), in 1966. Ernie leaves their children, Sharon (Ron) Davis of Calgary, Alberta, Darla (Wayne) Lowenberg of Eston, Saskatchewan, Douglas (Donna) Siggelkow of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, and Carolyn (Les) Dueck of Estevan, Saskatchewan to cherish his memory.

Ernie began his pastoral ministry with the Apostolic Church of Pentecost in 1942 and then after marrying Hilda, he joined The Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada in 1967. He has been a faithful and well loved pastor serving in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. His final pastorate was in Whitecourt, Alberta before retiring in 1992.

The funeral for Ernie will be held at the Vegreville Pentecostal Church, 4615 Maple Street in Vegreville, Alberta on Thursday, June 19 at 2:00 PM. Interment will be the following day in Burdett, Alberta. Please continue to pray for the Siggelkow family.
