Armin Mueller
It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we inform you of the passing of Armin Mueller.
Armin purchased Canadian Rangeland in 2001 and over the next twenty years, he made it a driving force in the Canadian Bison Industry. His vision and foresight inspired the construction of a custom harvest facility in Lacombe; a much-needed infrastructure, that would cultivate the growth of a burgeoning meat market. Armin’s love and admiration for the bison never faltered through the many upswings and downturns over the years. With passion, dedication and transparent devotion, he heightened awareness for the industry as a whole.
It is not often that life brings us someone like Armin: a mentor, an entrepreneur and a friend. After he sold Canadian Rangeland, he continued to give back to the bison industry with his generous donation to Lakeland College. Through this legacy, the Bison Herd Management program was created to inspire and engage a whole new generation of bison ranchers.
Our deepest sympathies go out to Armin’s family and all those who knew him. Forever in our hearts and our herds.
A memorial service for Armin will be held at the Blindman Valley Agriculture Centre in Bentley on Saturday, October 15th , at 11:00 a.m. Please join us in this celebration of life.
