HEINZ, HERBERT

March 21, 1930 – February 13, 2022

It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Herb Heinz on Sunday, February 13, 2022 at the age of 91. Born in March of 1930, Herb spent most of his formative years in Medicine Hat, Alberta. He married the love of his life, Norma, in November 1950 and together they moved, with their three children, to Calgary in 1955. Herb worked for over 30 years at Cana Construction (Burns & Dutton), retiring as Equipment Controller. He loved to drive, travel and meet new people. He drove almost coast to coast and travelled to many countries, including the U.S, Africa, France and the Caribbean islands. He has lived the last 5 years at the Rocky Ridge Retirement Community, where he was well-loved by residents and staff alike. He will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by his wife, Norma, his children and their families, Don and Marilyn Heinz of Canmore, Kathy Heinz of Vancouver, Debbie & Paul LeBlanc of Cochrane; his grandchildren Travis (Nicky) Heinz, Alexis Heinz, Candace Heinz, Randy (Chelsea) LeBlanc and 5 great grandchildren. Herb was predeceased by his step-brothers Bill, Harry and Elroy Heinz, step-sisters Ella Rinder and Edna Heinz and his son, Keith Heinz. A celebration of Herb’s life will be held at a later date. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the Family, via the website: www.fostersgardenchapel.ca.
