ANNE TECKLENBURG
ANNE TECKLENBURG It is with deep sadness that the family of Anne Tecklenburg announce her sudden passing on September 21, 2004, at Concordia Hospital, Winnipeg. Anne will be lovingly remembered by her husband of 47 years, Walter; her daughter Louise Maciejkow (Tim); her grandchildren
, Andrew, Jeremy and Sarah, who were the love of her life. She will also be terribly missed by her honourary family, Catharine Moir, Neil Charnock, Lauren and Hannah and innumerable dear friends. She leaves behind her cherished pets, Tessa, Davina, Lucky, Pixie, Banjo and Sulu. Anne was born
in Epson, Surrey, England and immigrated to Canada in 1955. Anne married Walter in Kingston, ON in 1957. They moved to Manitoba and built their dream home in the R.M. of Springfield to raise Louise in a more rural setting. Anne had a tremendous love and talent caring for animals and their farm became a refuge for orphaned zoo babies, horses, donkeys, goats, dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits and birds to name but a few. Anne was a very unique individual, a lady of great presence and stature. She had an "aura' about her and lit up any room she entered. Anne was a great conversationalist and would talk with anybody and everybody from all walks of life. Her wit and charm endeared her to all that she met. Anne had many talents but her first and foremost role in life was that of being a care giver. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Her overwhelming generosity and care giving was her trade mark that will be forever remembered by those that knew her. The family wishes to extend heartfelt and sincere appreciation to Dr. Dennis Caners and his staff for many years of excellent medical and personal care. Funeral service will be held on Monday, September 27 at 10:30 a.m. at Klassen Funeral Home, 1897 Henderson Hwy., followed by interment at Sunnyside Cemetery, off of Garven Road.

NICHOLAS TODORUK
NICHOLAS (MYKOLA) TODORUK Following a heroic battle with cancer, Nicholas (Mykola) Todoruk, aged 72, passed peacefully into the loving arms of God on Tuesday, September 21, 2004 supported by the love and care of his family in his own home. Words cannot adequately describe how much Nick will be missed by family and close friends. Born in Arborg, MB on March 7, 1932 Nick left "the farm" at age 16 to work in a variety of positions as cook, catapiller operator, mechanic and welder in several communities throughout Ontario, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. He married Barbara Durrant on June 21, 1958 and settled back in Arborg where they raised their family. Nick was a gifted welder and mechanic who took pride in his work and although he retired in 1997 others still sought him out for his exceptional work, for advice, or for assistance with a mechanical or welding problem. Nick was a very gentle person who always put the needs of his family before his own. Family was his passion and in fact Nick's greatest pleasure was when his family was all together in the home he built for them on "the farm". He ensured that everyone in his immediate and extended family always felt loved and supported. Nick was a kind, generous, strong person who in his quiet way taught those around him to treasure simplicity. The simplicity of family life, the simplicity of cherishing each other and the simplicity of looking after the land. "Look after the land and you will be greatly rewarded." Everything was recycled, reused or repaired and as a result he created a sustainable farmland long before society at large became aware of the need to look after our environment. Gardening was another passion. Plants were nurtured along from seedling to harvest with the greatest care. Whether it was vegetables, fruit, or his rose garden, he took great delight in sharing the bounty and the beauty. Profoundly saddened by Nick's loss are his son David (Darlene) Todoruk; daughter Sharon (Michael) Campbell and daughter Michelle (Gerry) Orchard. He will be missed most of all by his grandchildren, Bryanne and Harrison Todoruk, who truly were the light of his life. Also saddened by his loss are sisters, Lena Todoruk, Pearl Lisowick and Pauline Paterson; brothers-in-law, Robert (Margie) Durrant and Donald Durrant (Rita Shachtay) and numerous other relatives, nieces and nephews. Nick was predeceased by his beloved wife Barbara in June 2002; his parents, Dora and Peter Todoruk; two infant sisters; sisters, Mary Dachuk and Nellie Todoruk; uncles, John Knehinicki and Mike Klym and brothers-in-law, Harry Dachuk and Bill Paterson. The family would like to extend sincere gratitude to Dr. Ernst Greyvenstein, Shannon Pyziak, Georgina Ball and to the physicians and staff who cared for Nick at the Arborg and District Health Centre. A special thank you to Lenore and Heather for their kindness, care and compassion in assisting Nick in his return back home from hospital. Funeral services will be held at the Ardal-Geysir Lutheran Church in Arborg, MB on Tuesday, September 28 at 2:30 p.m. Pastor Trudy Thorarinson officiating. In lieu of flowers, if family and friends so desire, donations may be made in memory of Nick to CancerCare Manitoba or to the Ardal Lutheran Church.
