Jeff Warkentin memorial volleyball this weekend


A charity volleyball tournament will be held this weekend at UMEI Christian Highschool in honour of the late Jeff Warkentin.
Warkentin passed away September 24 at the age of 32 after a very sudden and short bout of bacterial meningitis. He and his family had just returned home to Pincher Creek, Alberta following a six-year term of service for the Mennonite church in Africa.
He was a graduate of East Mersea Public School and UMEI before pursuing a post-secondary education at the Canadian Mennonite University and the University of Manitoba.
Jeff excelled at volleyball and had an anormous gift for embracing life and people. He leaves behind his wife Tany and three young children.
The volleyball will run from 9 a.m. to 6p.m. and will be an adult open 6-on-6 co-ed tournament with three males and three females per side.
Cost for the tournament is $150 per team with proceeds going to the Warkentin Family Fund.
