From findagrave.com:
Jeff Daniel Minter of Regina, SK, was born October 25, 1925, to Alvie Grover and Emma (Ball) Minter and lived vibrant life which spanned almost 94 years and covered a more than continent's worth of work, travel, and life experience.
Jeff grew up in Panola County, East Texas, leaving home at 18 to fight in Europe during WW II. He returned home to work in pipelining which led him to settle in Canada in 1952. Homes were made and children were raised in Estevan, SK, Kipling, SK, and Regina, SK.
From storming Utah Beach during the D-Day invasion at Normandy, to starting his own successful North American pipeline company (United Pipeline Contractors) in 1961, to finally retiring back into ranching and farming in 1974. He enjoyed flying planes, racing cars, consulting, traveling, football, baseball, boxing, hunting, and fishing.
Jeff is preceded in death by his parents; his first wife, Mary Ann (Bounds) Minter and his wife, Joan (Bloom) Minter, and all of his siblings: Laverne Plemons, Cornell Leslie, Kascille Anderson, Kathleen Lum, Gertrude Stone, Hattie Leslie, Alvie T (Mutt) Minter, Joe Dick Minter, Emogene Knight and Charles Minter.
