WAYNE RODNEY KRENTZ It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved father, grandfather, partner and friend, Wayne Rodney Krentz, on March 3, 2015, at the age of 65. He is survived by his partner Kim (daughters, Chrystal and Tanya, son Michael and grandchildren); daughter Allyson (Tony), grandchildren Nik, Braedyn, Mikayla and Pierce; daughter Heather (Jarek), grandchildren Jaxsin, Dysin, and grandson due in May. Wayne was predeceased by his brother Ricky at infancy, his parents Gertrude and William, his wife Pauline, and son Steven. Born on May 23, 1949, Wayne spent most of his life living on the farm in Greenwald, MB. He had many jobs in his life, such as heavy machine operator, construction worker, but his heart was in farming. He spent many years farming the land with his father, and then his son, as well as raising hogs. The last 12 years were spent hobby farming raising his prize show birds and miniature horses to keep his days busy. A special thank-you to Dr. Partyka for his care of Wayne over the last few years.
