JOE KABANUK |
|
On
June 6th, 2010 Joe Kabanuk passed away to be reunited with
his beloved wife, Beatrice. Joe
lived 97 very good years of life. The best years were the years he
spent with Beatrice raising their six children and working on the
land they farmed near Viceroy, SK. Joe was a much respected farmer
and a seasoned horseman. He loved his horses and enjoyed working
with cattle. He had a quiet gentle spirit about him and animals
sensed that. He had a love for nature and never took more than what
was needed and always gave back. He could fix or build anything with
his hands and he passed that gift on to his children. Joe lived in a
remarkable time. He saw his mother plow a field using oxen, he saw
man walk on the moon and he farmed to the day when machinery became
computerized. He was living proof that it wasn’t the size of the
man in the fight, but the size of the fight in the man. Joe will be
greeted in heaven by his wife Beatrice of 67 years (passed away
April 8, 2010), his parents, and his siblings. His quick wit and
gentle sense of humor will be missed by: L1oyd, Joyce, Robert (Loreen),
Donald (Diane), Glen (Shirley), Joan (Dwain), and his grandchildren
and great-grandchildren, sister, Tillie and brother-in-law, Norman
(Lena). In
keeping with Joe’s request, a private family service will be held.
Della Ferguson will officiate. Interment will take place
at Sunset

My prayer is all of you would find comfort for your great loss. Bill & Joanne Potter - Kennewick, WA: Our heart felt sympathy goes out to the family. We are so thankful to have had him on this earth during his lifetime. Maxine Kabanuk Dale - Salmon Arm, BC: To the Joe Kabanuk family, my heart goes out to you. We have lost a dear man in Uncle Joe. How I wish we could have spent more time with your family over the years. I know it has to be difficult coming so soon after losing Aunt Beatrice, but what a comfort to know they are in Heaven together! (There seems to be more on the other side all the time.) What a day of rejoicing it will be when we all see Jesus, and our loved ones! God bless, keep and comfort you. With love, Maxine Donela Haynes - Surrey, BC: My thoughts and prayers go out to all the family. Although I last met Uncle Joe and Aunt Beatrice when my father (Arthur Frank Townsend) passed away, I have very fond memories of both of them. Donela Haynes - Surrey, British Columbia Gerry &

throughout these difficult months. We feel your pain, and we care

soon after your mother. We continue to pray for you that God will
bring comfort and peace during this difficult time in your lives. We
will continue to pray. Blessings and love, Gerry & Jean Lynn |
