History
Hubert Hermes, 1879-1946, was born at Kesternich, Germany, and undertook classical studies at Valkenburg in the Netherlands. He entered the novitiate in 1896 and was ordained a priest of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (O.M.I.) in Rome in 1905. After a year in Italy, he moved to Alberta, serving parishes in Banff, Cochrane, Shuler, Canmore, and Lethbridge. In 1923 he transferred to Saskatchewan, where he served parishes in Saint Walburg, Scott, Unity, and Wilkie. He died in Regina and was buried at Battleford, Saskatchewan.
