My deepest sympathies to the Siemens family. I have many fond memories of Hank who built our home back in the 70’s. That was the beginning of a lasting friendship especially for my husband, Walter, who even at one point worked for him briefly, Hank was always very good to us, and we had nothing but respect and admiration for him. He will be missed.
My condolences to the Siemens family. Hank hired me in spring of 1974 when I finished my Cabinet Making and Millwork Course at what was then Kelsey Institute. He was a good man to work for and I also enjoyed working with the the other people he had working for him. I learned a lot in the 3 years I worked for him. It was during this time that their youngest son Fred was born. I appreciated your Mom and Dad and will always remember them.
My Deepest Sympathies to Elvera & family. God’s Blessings to you all.
My condolences to you all. I had the pleasure of working with Hank for many years, he was honest, hard working, and fair and he expected that from you to. Over the years I also had the pleasure of working with Robert (Bob), and also Garnet, as well as interactions with Jim, all of them are quality people just like Hank.
I’ll always remember the time I was invited out to their acreage for an afternoon of go cart and mini bike riding.
All of you will be in our thoughts and prayers.
We will be praying for you, Elvera, and your family. Hank will be missed! Thank you to both of you for your many hours volunteering with Fraser Valley Gleaners when you were in town.
We first met Hank Siemens at the Hyde Park View seniors complex 6+ years ago. We were very impresses with his building and construction skills. He was instrumental in making several modifications and changes to make our building better, He made immaculate furniture and was a leader in the formation of our workshop. He was very approachable and told and showed me about the motorhome he built. I gave him a vise suitable for clamping wood.. He was pleased to receive it as he would give it to his son . I asked him if he had plans for a somewhat complex piece of furniture that he made. He said that he did not and kept all his information in his mind and did not need plans, I marvelled at how talented he was. Condolences to his family and Alvera. He will be greatly missed at Hyde Park View.
