Menno F. Enns, 98, of Inman, passed away on Sunday, September 6, 2020 at Pleasant View Home. He was born to Henry J. and Agatha (Fehdrau) Enns on March 23, 1922, at the rural Inman farm home where he lived until 2015.

It was love at first sight for Menno when he met a new girl in town, Edith Loeffler, at choir practice in 1940. They were married on November 28, 1943 at Bethel Mennonite Church in Inman, where he was an active lifetime member.

Menno spent much of his life on a horse, checking pastures for himself and neighbors, often called on by friends to help rope a bull or pull a calf. He never charged for that, always willing to help. He was known to bring Edith bouquets of wild flowers after those rides. They never stopped holding hands.

Menno is survived by daughters, Jan (Steve) Spiller and Judy Bryant; daughter-in-law, Judy Enns; grandchildren, Raymond (Rachel) Enns, and Meghann Myers; and great-grandchildren, Hayden and Violet Enns;
