HORST KARL ROHDE

It is with great sadness that the family of Horst announce his peaceful passing on Monday, October 9, 2023 at the age of 88 years.  He was predeceased by his parents, Elfrieda and Willi; his loving wife Ursula; and numerous family members in Germany.

Horst will be lovingly remembered by his daughter Eleonore Caron; son Herb Rohde; grandchildren, Michelle Caron, Jamie Caron, Sabrina Caron and Joshua Rohde; Joshua’s mom, Michelle Rohde; great-grandchildren, Kaitlyn and Marshall; great-great grandchildren Natalia and Henry; sisters-in-law in Germany, Inge and Angelica; niece in Germany, Diana; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, family members in Germany and dear friends.

Horst was born in Berlin Germany. He married the love of his life Ursula Szymanski on August 31, 1956.  They immigrated to Canada in September 1957 and over the course of their life together, they called Regina, Dilke and for the past 13 years, Moose Jaw home.  Horst had many interests and hobbies, but his true joy in life was when he was sitting around the kitchen table surrounded by his family.  He will be missed dearly and forever loved.  A Celebration of Horst’s life will be held on Friday, October 20, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. in Moose Jaw Funeral Home with Michelle Rohde officiating.  Interment will follow in the Moose Jaw Funeral Home Columbarium.  For friends and family who are unable to attend you are invited to view to service virtually by going to www.moosejawfuneralhome.com/webcast/.  Flowers are gratefully declined.  Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane.  Michelle Ellis, Funeral Director 306-693-4550

    The news of your father’s death deeply saddened us! We are very sorry to hear about his passing.
    Horst was such a great person and will always have a place in our heart.

    Those we love can never be more than a thought away. For as long as there is memory, they will live forever.

    Please accept our deepest sympathies.

    Bärbel, Holger und Diana Szymanski, Berlin, Germany

    As much as it pains me that him and oma are gone and didn’t get to meet their great great grandson; I know in my heart that they are dancing together and watching over us. I love you both so very much and wish I had been better at showing it.

    I was saddened to read that your husband, dad and granddad has died. I am wondering if this is the Horst that came to work on my families sheep farm in Australia in 1953. We did not keep in touch with him after he left and would love to know more about his life after he moved on. He was a lovely man and I remember him just in bits and pieces because I was only about 6 years old when he was on our farm. Love and my sympathy to your family. My dads name was Walter Linke.
