Valentine Arnold "Val"  Keller
Val passed away peacefully on December 1, 2015 at St. Paul Lutheran Home in Melville. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 68 years, Clara; his children Darlene (Robert) Taylor and Garnet (Lori) Keller; his grandchildren Stacey (Jim) Sereda, Angela (Aaron) Friggstad, Jordan (Crystal) Keller, Malori (Steve Smith) Keller and Hilary Keller; his great-grandchildren Robbie, Evan and Emma Sereda and Kieran, Quinn and Eden Friggstad. He is also survived by his brothers Albert and Alfred (Lily) Keller and his sisters-in-law Kathleen Keller and Marie Hack. He was predeceased by his parents Valentine and Katherine (Bieber) and his in-laws Gustav and Katherine Banerd; his son Kelly and his great-grandson Jonathan; brothers Rheinold and Ernie; half brothers Jake, Philip, Peter, Jacob and Karl; half sisters Emma, Maria, Lucy and Anna; many sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews.

Valentine Arnold was born on June 25, 1924 at Lemberg, SK. He was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran Faith and received his education at Roadside School. On May 25, 1947 he married Clara Banerd. Together they farmed in the Lemberg district from 1947-1956. Val was employed at Swift Canadian Company until it closed in 1968. He then worked for Walter Garage and Melville Motors. In 1975 he quit his job and became a full-time grain and cattle farmer. He retired from this occupation when he was well over 80 years old.

Val was an active member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church, having served on church council several times. He enjoyed family gatherings, card games, ball games, having coffee with friends and spending time with his grandchildren.
