It is with heartfelt sadness that the family of Henry Adolph Ziegenhagel of Medicine Hat announce his passing on August 19, 2025, at the age of 92 years. Beloved husband of Bertha Ziegenhagel (Kotowich), and of the late Esther Ziegenhagel (Widmer), Henry passed away peacefully, surrounded by care and compassion.

Henry was born on July 2, 1933, to Adolph and Elsie Ziegenhagel. In his younger years, Henry could often be found at the ball diamond, on horseback, or enjoying the excitement of a rodeo. He grew up on the Ziegenhagel homestead in the Graburn Area, where he and his first wife, Esther, lovingly raised their two children, Robert and Brenda.In his later years, Henry took great joy in 5 km runs, leather crafting, gardening, and spending time outdoors. He especially cherished the peace and tranquility of the farm with his wife Bertha. Henry will be deeply missed by his loving family: his wife Bertha; his children Robert Ziegenhagel (Kathy) and Brenda Derheim (Gerald); his grandchildren Ried Derheim (Jessica) and Kristy Coxson (Ben); and his great-granddaughters Esther and Emma Coxson. He was predeceased by his first wife Esther Ziegenhagel, and his parents Adolph and Elsie Ziegenhagel.

The family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to Dr. Monty and the staff at St. Joseph's Home for their warmth, compassion, and professionalism in caring for Henry.

Henry's legacy of love, family, and quiet strength will live on in all who knew him.
