Ronald John Poss
June 10, 1966 – September 2, 2018

It is with profound sadness that the family of Ronald “Ron” John Poss of Humboldt, SK, announces his passing at Royal University Hospital, Saskatoon, SK, on Sunday, September 2, 2018. He was 52 years of age. Ron was born on June 10, 1966, to George and Geraldine (nee Ilg) Poss in Lanigan, SK. He was raised on the family farm southeast of Burr, SK, and attended school in LeRoy, SK. Later, Ron attended pre-vocational school in Muenster, SK, then worked at Prime Meats in St. Gregor, SK. He was quite good at what he did and enjoyed it every day. Ron was employed there for many years until failing health forced him to retire. Ron met Alice (nee Dubreuil) Polanik in the mid-2000s. They got engaged and were married on July 8, 2016. Ron was a very high-spirited man who was filled with love. He enjoyed being outside hunting, fishing, and helping others. As well, he loved cooking and feeding anyone, spending time with family and friends, going for coffee and talking to anyone around. His laugh would fill the room. Ron also loved playing cards, especially Kings Court, watching T.V., and talking on the phone. He would call his daughter countless times and if there was no answer, he’d leave a long message, usually starting with “Hi, it’s your Dad”. Ron is survived by his loving wife, Alice (nee Dubreuil) Poss; his daughter Katelynn Poss (Darren Forster); Alice’s three children and two grandchildren: Connie (Michael) LeBlanc, Vanessa (Todd) Roberts and son Joseph, and Alex Polanik and daughter Auzlynn; his mother, Geraldine (nee Ilg) Poss; three brothers and one sister: David Poss, Lorne Poss, Garry Poss (Carla Frank), and Gail Poss; and by numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his father, George Poss. The Prayer Service for Ron was held at Schuler-Lefebvre Funeral Chapel, Humboldt, on Thursday, September 6, 2018, at 7:30 p.m., led by Nestor Trach and organist Darlene Cash. Scripture readers were Naomi Ramsay and Carla Frank. The Funeral Mass was held at St. Augustine R.C. Church, Humboldt, on Friday, September 7, 2018, at 10:00 a.m., celebrated by Fr. Lawrence DeMong, OSB. Others taking part were: Jenna Poss, crossbearer; Stacey Poss and Naomi Ramsay, scripture readers; Sherry Stebbings, intentions; Louise Eberle and Melanie Ramsay, giftbearers; Paulette Skulski, memorial table attendant; and Allan Koroski, urnbearer.
