John Hiebert, age 71, of Laird, went home to be with his Lord and Savior, on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2020, after a brief battle with cancer. He leaves to mourn his passing, Gladys, the mother of his children: Melanie (Ryan), Leon (Heather), Ivy, Mitchell and Steven (Brandy); 11 grandchildren, and 1 great grandchild, brothers Cornie (Joyce), Jim (Heather) and sister Ann (Bob) Janzen.
