Jessie Neustaeter was born on June 21st, 1951, in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. She was the 13th of 14 children born to Isaac and Sara Heinrichs. Jessie grew up on their farm and attended school in the Versailles district. After leaving high school, Jessie left the farm for Winnipeg where she received her LPN training and worked at the Misericordia Health Centre. She moved back to Swift Current and married Abe Neustaeter in 1975. Jessie and Abe lived in Wymark until moving to Abe’s family farm in 1981, where they lived, together, the remainder of Jessie’s days. Jessie and Abe welcomed two daughters into their family and Jessie stayed home to raise the girls, before returning to work as a care aid. In recent years, Jessie stayed home, helping to care for their grandchildren. Jessie enjoyed playing cards and kibitzing with family. She was a fantastic baker and cook.
