It is with heartfelt sadness that we announce the sudden death of Larry Adam Untereiner, age 78, on Monday, November 18, 2019 in Gull Lake, SK.

Born on July 22, 1941 in Swift Current, SK, Larry made a career with Canada Safeway and worked throughout Saskatchewan and Alberta. After Larry retired, he and Gail (nee Holtby) retired to Gull Lake in 1995.

He was a loving and devoted husband to Gail; father to Trent (Julie), Teresa (Dave), and Phoenix; grandfather to Larissa, Matraca, Caitlin, Danielle, Gavin, Piper, Meagan, Ben, Grace, Sadie; as well as a great grandfather to Faye and Chloe. Also left to mourn Larry’s passing are his brother, Gerald (Irene); and sisters, Bernice Simmie, and Marlene Hiebert; as well as several nieces and nephews.

Larry loved carving sculptures, woodworking, music, and movies. He had a beautiful tenor voice in which he sang in the Catholic and Ecumenical Choirs. Larry will be remembered for his kindness, community work, and strong work ethic.
