As published in the December 31, 2018 World-Spectator
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bert McGonigal of Moosomin, Sask. Bert passed at home on December 11, 2018.
Bert was the second youngest of 10 born to Robert and Jean McGonigal on June 8, 1951.
Bert worked at IMC Potash Mine in Esterhazy. He loved his job as well as his coworkers. He always had stories and memories to share about the mine.
One of Bert’s many talents was communication. Rosie always told him he should have been a telephone operator, he loved to talk so much. You could always find him delivering the morning papers, afternoon groceries or down at the coffee shop. He always had time for a visit.
Bert will be missed and forever remembered by his wife of 46 years Rose, his daughter Tanya (Justin) and son Dustin (Samantha), grandchildren Daxton, Drake and Hadley.
Bert was predeceased by his son Todd and his grandson Hudson.
