Obituary For John S. Moen
It is with heavy hearts that the family of John S. Moen announces his passing on Wednesday, February 25, 2026, at the age of 85 years. He had been a resident of Saddle Hills County, Alberta.
John was born in Sexsmith, Alberta, on June 9, 1940, the second child of Anna and Anton Moen of Bad Heart, Alberta. John grew up on the farm and attended the schools there, as well as in Teepee Creek and Grande Prairie. In later years, he married and happily had a son and daughter.
He served for 15 years, from 2006 to 2021, as a Councillor for Saddle Hills County, which he enjoyed very much.
John is survived by his son, Sheriden; daughter Shaydyn; sisters: Janet Jones of Nelson, BC, Carol Atamaniuk (George) of Villeneuve, AB, Ellen Bozarth Brown (David) of Wanham, AB, Linda Mayer of Grande Prairie, AB, Nancy Cockroft of Edmonton, AB, and Emily Moen of Edmonton, AB; nieces, nephews, and several cousins; as well as many relatives in Norway.
He was predeceased by his parents, Anton and Anna Moen.
In accordance with John’s wishes, he was cremated, and no formal service took place. If so desired, memorial donations may be made in memory of John, to the Grande Spirit Foundation (to the benefit of the Spirit River Centre; 9505-102 Ave., Grande Prairie, AB, T8V 1Z8).
Arrangements were made by Reynars Funeral Home & Crematorium in Dawson Creek, BC.
