While employed there, until 1952, he hand molded bricks and fondly remembered working with other molders; Bob Wolfe, Joe Nagel, Jim Holden. Gottfried and Walter Harlos mixed the mud (clay) and wheeled it to the waiting molders. He married Margaret Russell in 1943 and they had four children, Gloria, Edith, Mike and Greg. After he quit the Plant he worked with the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool and then in 1962 my parents moved to Calgary and my father worked at the Maple Leaf Mills.
