Herb Essenburg

Essenburg, Herbert Erich (Herb) passed away peacefully the morning of Sunday March 8, 2009 at Parkridge Centre in Saskatoon, SK following a battle with cancer. Words cannot describe the extent to which he will be missed by family, friends and the many people whose lives he touched. Herb was born in Winnipeg MB, to Ludwig and Elsie Essenburg on June 16, 1932. At an early age his family learned that he had a severe visual impairment which eventually resulted in total blindness. He was always grateful for his family's support by involving him in all their activities including church participation, travel, learning to paddle a canoe, rollerskating and skiing. Herb was employed by the Canadian National Institute for the Blind from June 1950 to February, 1980. In 1981, he acted as the Saskatchewan Co-ordinator for the International Year of Disabled Persons and from 1982 to 1994 was employed by the Saskatchewan Public Service Commission as a Human Resources Consultant and Employee Assistance Program Referral Agent. In 1959, Herb married Vera Tschetter and together they had two sons, Bruce and Rob. Through the years, Vera was a tremendous help and support to Herb in ways too numerous to count and Herb was deeply grateful for this support and encouragement. In 1972, Herb became a licensed amateur radio operator with the callsign VE5HE and made many friends around the world with this hobby. He was always appreciative of the help other hams gave him in repairing antennas and doing other jobs he couldn't handle.
Countless hours were spent in entertaining residents of nursing homes and seniors' facilities playing a variety of instruments, along with a variety of other groups of musicians. Although he enjoyed the toetapping music of polkas etc., his favorite really was playing many of the old hymns and gospel songs with other musicians. He was a firm believer that his faith was a factor in helping him to navigate through life with little or no sight as he truly believed that countless times, his prayers had been answered. In 1962, Herb became a chartered member of the Saskatoon Nutana Lions Club and participated in club projects where practical. In 2005, he was recognized by being presented with life memberships in the Saskatoon Amateur Radio Club and the Saskatoon Nutana Lions Club. Through a period of several years, he was presented with several medals recognizing his service to the community. Herb was predeceased by a brother Edwin who was killed in action in the RCAF over Germany in 1945, his mother Elsie Essenburg in October of 1987, and his father Ludwig Essenburg in 1990. He is survived by his loving wife Vera of Saskatoon,SK, his son Bruce and wife Mellisa of San Diego, California, his son Rob, wife Naomi and four grandchildren of Kelowna, BC, brother August and wife Aida of Winnipeg, MB, and sister, Irma Sachvie and husband August of Lockport, MB, as well as a number of nieces and nephews. Herb's family would like to thank all of the home care aides and staff at City Hospital and Parkridge Centre who cared for Herb like he was a part of their family. In Herb's memory, contributions may be made to the CNIB (Canadian National Institute for the Blind, 1705 McKercher Drive Saskatoon,SK, S7H 5N6)or Therapeutic Recreation Department, Parkridge Centre (110 Gropper Cr.
