SIGURDUR (SAM) INGIMUNDARSON It is with deep sorrow the family announces the passing of Sam Ingimundarson on March 11, 2002 at the Deer Lodge Centre, Winnipeg, MB. Sam was born May 5, 1926 in Lundar, MB and attended school there. At the age of 13 years he went to work for Axel Johnson at the Light and Box Factory in Lundar, MB. Sam also worked for Joe Gislason putting floats and sinkers on fish nets. He also worked for Joe Sigurdson and the Peterson family at the Mink farms, and latterly worked with his nephews, the Brandson boys on the farm. Sam was a good human being, and like all of us frail in spirit, and escaped into what he thought was a better place. Sam loved everyone and wanted to be loved but made himself unavailable to others because he was afraid. He was grateful for the little things and always said please and thank you. Sam leaves to mourn one sister Adalheidur (Hazel) Magnussen of Winnipeg, MB, also many nieces, nephews and friends. He was predeceased by his parents, Emilia and Ingiberg; one sister Maria Brandson; and one brother Julius. Funeral service will be held on Saturday, March 16 at 2:00 p.m. in the Lundar Lutheran Church, with Pastor Terry Throndson officiating. Interment to follow in the Lundar Lutheran Cemetery. Pallbearers will be nephews Jim Brandson and Fred Brandson, his friends Dick Peterson, Ray Peterson, Bruce Breckman and John Guttormson. The family would like to thank Dr. Neil Burnett and staff at the Eriksdale Hospital, the staff at Poisedon Place, and Deer Lodge Centre. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Lundar Lutheran Church Memorial Fund. Arrangements Entrusted To: ARNASON FUNERAL HOMES LTD. Ashern - Lundar (204) 768-2072
