John Richard Lindemann, late of Regina, died peacefully on November 1, 2014, with his family at his side at the age of 78 years. Richard was born on November 15, 1935 in Silton, SK., one of six children to Emil and Olga Lindemann. He married his wife Helen on November 26, 1955 and they went on to live in Saskatoon, Weyburn, Regina, and Elbow.

Richard enjoyed his working life as tradesman and proprietor of his own upholstery business. He also delighted in many outdoors activities including boating, fishing, and golfing. He loved spending time with his family, friends, and especially his grandchildren and great grandchildren.

The family wishes to thank the many people who visited Richard in his final months and the staff at Regina Wascana Grace Hospice for their care in making his last few weeks free of pain.  Richard is predeceased by his brother Bill and daughter Connie. He is survived by his loving wife Helen, his sister Eleanor, his brothers Bert, Lloyd, and Sam, his sons Brian, Dale (Wendy) and Robert (Debra), his eight grandchildren and five great grandchildren. In lieu of a funeral, the family will hold a private gathering to honour Richard’s life later this month.
