Arnold Jasman

March 28, 1935-February 28, 2024

The world lost one of the kindest men.

Arnold was born and raised in Eatonia where he and his brother, Erwin ran the family farm which was his greatest accomplishment. Arnold loved working on the farm and enjoyed his time in Eatonia.

In 1998 Arnold married the love of his life, Lydia and gained the family he always wanted. Retirement was on the horizon and in 2006, Arnold and Lydia sold the family farm and moved to Medicine Hat to be closer to their grandchildren, eventually settling in Coaldale, Ab.

Together, Arnold and Lydia traveled the world including countries like Spain, Morocco, Egypt, Brazil and China but his favourite was when he spent time in Thailand. This farmer from Eatonia managed to walk the Great Wall of China!

Arnold was so proud of his family. He was always happy to help his two step-sons, Alan and Eric with any farming, gardening or building projects. The light of his life were his grandchildren Julia, Simon, Ezra, Jaxon and Denver.

Arnold was predeceased by his father Albert, his mother, Hulda, his brother, Erwin and his sister Freida. He is lovingly remembered by his wife of 27 years, Lydia, his stepsons Eric Chant (Heidi) of Maidstone, SK, Alan Chant (Vicki) of Coaldale and his grandchildren Julia, Jaxon, Denver, Simon & Ezra, as well as several nieces and nephews.

As requested by Arnold, there will be no funeral. Burial will take place at a later date in Chilliwack, BC.
