Victor was born on November 18, 1923 in Lindenau, Molotschna. Ukraine. The Kliever family immigrated to Canada in 1924 and eventually settled on a farm near Culross, Manitoba. This farm was where he spent his growing up years and his farm as an adult was just down the road. Dad had many occupations during his lifetime but his passion was farming. He had a great love of the land and in his later years loved drives in the country to look at the crops. Family was very important to Dad and he loved having us all around especially his beloved grandchildren and great-granddaughters. The family wishes to thank Palliative Care and their caregivers for the last nine weeks of support and service. Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, June 30, 2015 at Abundant Life Baptist Church, 1396 Plessis Rd. Winnipeg.

Envelopes and donation slips will be available at the service. Rest in Peace Dad. We love you and miss you. Birchwood Funeral Chapel, Steinbach
