MARTIN HARRISON
MARTIN HARRISON Born near Sundre, Alberta, February 3, 1917, died November 25, 2004 at Riverview Health Centre with the blessing of his loving family at his side. Marty was predeceased by his wife of 62 years, Ruby (Goldsmith) in 2003; his brothers, Earl and Allan; sister-in-law Calista Spencer; brothers-in-law, Wally Shillington and Earl Spencer and his granddaughter Bonnie Hughes. He is survived by his three children, Carol (Pat) Hughes, Betty (Doug) Broadhurst and Garth (Margaret); nine grandchildren
, Daniel, Michael, Tracy, Vivian, Richard, Valerie, Miles, Marc and Krista; seven great-grandchildren, Joshua, Bonnie, Michael, Emma, Sara, Sydney and Mackenzie; sister Donna Shillington; sisters-in-law, Stella Harrison and Joy Fauth and special niece Beth and great-niece Calista Spencer. Dad grew up on a beautiful orchard in Carnduff, SK, married Ruby in 1941 and moved to Winnipeg in 1950. He was interested in and always accepted new technology. Some of the fond memories he had were of the first radio in their home and how excited everyone was, giving up the team of horses for a new tractor, the new era of cars and airplanes and finally his great love - computers. Dad spent years writing programs first at his place of work as Treasurer of Co-op Implements Ltd. and after retirement, developing his genealogy program "Roots and Relatives". Dad never went into anything in a small way. When he got interested in ceramics, with Mom's help, he built a studio in their basement. They taught classes using film media, poured their own moulds and fired everything they created in their two kilns. Although he had many interests, his greatest love was his family. He was a devoted husband and only wanted to live a day longer than Ruby who needed special care. His children and their children were the focus of his life. He was a dependable, kind, generous and loving man. A memorial service will be at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 30 at Glen Lawn Funeral Home, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd. (south of the Royal Canadian Mint). A gathering of family and friends will follow in the reception centre. The family wishes to thank the wonderful caregivers at Riverview Health Centre. Their response to Dad's insistence on hugs and kisses stands as an example of true palliative care. We also express thank you to all who visited and telephoned giving their support to Dad and the family during the last few months.

MICHAEL MAREK
MICHAEL "MIKE" ALEXANDER MAREK 1929 - 2004 It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Mike Marek, on Wednesday, November 24, 2004, at the age of 75 years, of Beausejour, Manitoba. Mike leaves to mourn his loving wife Jean of 50 years of marriage; sons, Patrick (Lorette), Bruce (Kathleen) and Jeff (Nancy); daughter Michelle Drysdale (Mark). Grandpa will be missed by his grandchildren, Jon, Tim and Catherine Kozody, Krysten and Kyle Marek, and Amanda and Kayla Marek. Mike will always be in the thoughts of his brothers and sisters, Kay Chorney, John Marek (Helen), Joe Marek (Wilma), Emily Mazur (Ed), Jean Prowse, Stan Marek, Joyce Corbett (Arley), Ed Marek (Vi) and Ken Marek (Phyllis); as well as numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. He was predeceased by his parents, George Marek and Rose (Bukoski); as well as the early passing of his daughter Judy. Born at the family farm near Tyndall, MB. on September 19, 1929, Mike was one of the good guys. His humour and zest for life will stay with all of us. After a few years of working as a miner and a few years of farming, Mike worked for close to 40 years as a carpenter. It is difficult to find a mile of road in the Beausejour area that he hadn't built something. Upon his retirement, Mike's passion turned to the outdoors. If he wasn't home, depending on the time of year, you'd probably find him either hunting or fishing or picking berries, mushrooms or hazelnuts. It was a full time job, and lord knows that there will be a bumper crop in all of the above in the coming years. Prayers will be held on Monday evening, November 29 at 7:00 p.m. in St. Mary Roman Catholic Church, Beausejour, MB. Funeral Liturgy will be celebrated on Tuesday morning, November 30 at 10:30 a.m. also in the church with Rev. Fr. Owen Steeves presiding. Interment will follow in the St. Mary Roman Catholic Parish Cemetery. "Whether a husband, a father, a brother, A grandfather or a friend, With a smile and a tear, You will always hold a special place In our hearts."
