HARTLEY KLIPPENSTEIN May 8, 1938 - March 6, 2016 It is with bitter-sweetness that I announce Hartley Klippenstein's passing on the beautiful evening of March 6, 2016. My Dad loved his workshop business, Toys from the Heart; St. Norbert Farmers' Market was his passion since it began - pull-dogs and trains, gingerbread houses and home décor he created with his sweetheart of 55+ years, Frances (wife he leaves to miss him). My Dad greets his folks, Anna and Jack, his brother Ken (Marlene); family, friends he hunted, fished, travelled and shared business with. We who live will continue to share our living memories - his wife, daughter (Cherie, Leonard Brisebois, Micayla and Katie), his brother Barry (Jacque), sister Cherrill (John Andrelunas) and brother Bruce (Linda), many of his cousins, nieces and nephews. "When you come to St. Norbert be sure to visit" The memorial service will be held on Friday, March 11, 2016, at 2:00 p.m., at Birchwood Funeral Chapel, 162 Hwy. 52 W., Steinbach, MB. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Hartley may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, 200 - 6 Donald Street; Winnipeg, MB R3L 0K6. Arrangements by BIRCHWOOD FUNERAL CHAPEL 1-204-346-1030 OR 1-888-454-1030

  • When Hartley was a suit salesman, I drove to Regina to meet him and that evening he took my wife and I out to a gorgeous restaurant and I had my first ever caesar salad made for us at the table. Loved them ever since but the art is dying. He was a wonderful salesman and became a short term friend until we lost touch with each other. My sincere condolences. - Posted by: Dave Turpie (Customer- Dave Turpie Men's Wear) on: Mar 09, 2016
