PETER HERMANN WEIDMANN
Peter is lovingly remembered by his wife Carole, of 56 years, their son Peter Jr. (Shelley), their daughter Michelle and their grandchildren whom he was so proud of, Stephanie (Steve), Will, Matthew (Malerie) and Chris. He will also be deeply missed by his four-legged granddogs, Daisy and Grizzly. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews in Canada and Germany. Peter was predeceased by his parents, Paul and Elizabeth, his siblings, Helga, Robert, Margaret and Marlies, as well as his beloved granddog Puck.
Peter was born on April 25, 1945 in Paderborn, Germany and immigrated to Canada in 1957 with his mother and brother.
Peter's passion was repairing and painting cars. He first worked at Kruse Auto Body, then for Erin Auto Body and in 1975 he started his own business. Peter loved the outdoors and spent many hours fishing and hunting with family and friends and later Peter and Carole retired in a home they built in Lac du Bonnet.
With the help of two amazing doctors, Dr. P. Czaykowski and Dr. M. Bruneau, as well as a special thank you to Denise, he was able to fight cancer for 17 years. The family would like to thank CancerCare Manitoba, Cancer Care at Pinawa Hospital, Interlake-Eastern Palliative Care Team and a special thank-you to Greg at Sobering Funeral Chapel.
Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held when restrictions are lifted.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to CancerCare Manitoba and Pinawa Hospital.
Arrangements by Sobering Funeral Chapel Beausejour.
Love you forever.

So sorry to hear of Peter's passing. He was a good friend from elementary school (Weston) through junior high (Cecil Rhodes) and beyond (different high schools). We would meet on occasion after we had completed our schooling and were into our employment years. When Pete got his own shop, he was my go-to guy, until he retired, for any bodywork I required ....he never disappointed. My most sincere condolences to his family, he will be missed. - Posted by: Jim Clemis (Friend) on: Jan 09, 2021

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. Two losses in such a short span is twice the pain. My thoughts are with you. Hopefully it won’t be long before we can all get together again and be there for you. Sheryl - Posted by: Sheryl Blatz (Friend) on: Jan 09, 2021
