DONALD GRAY

DONALD ARTHUR GRAY December 18, 1923 - July 18, 2004 Don's family is sad to announce his sudden passing at the Victoria General Hospital after a brief illness. He will be greatly missed by his loving wife Sally; sons, Bill (Karen), Don, Doug (Janet) and daughter Laura; grandchildren, Julie Pacin (Stefan), Madison, Paige and Laurel; and his sister Donna Mellon and family of London, ON.

Don was born icon in London, ON and moved to Winnipeg with his family in 1964 to become Director of the Central Region for Health and Welfare Canada, Food and Drug Protection Branch, from which he retired in 1983. He was a very knowledgeable man. All his life he had a great desire to learn and took every opportunity to try new things. Among his many interests were the Winnipeg Senior Citizens' Amateur Radio Club (VE4 DAG), the restoration of antiques, stained glass artwork and sharing stories about life's experiences. Don valued the friendship of all the residents of Southpark Estates since he and Sally moved there in 1997. The family wishes to thank the staff of "The Vic" for their kindness. A very special thank you to Fr. Patrick Morand and Fr. Carl Tarnopolski for their kind attention to Don.

MAURICE HAMONIC

MAURICE (MOE) ALBERT JOSEPH HAMONIC September 3, 1940 - July 16, 2004 With heavy heart, I announce the untimely passing of my cherished husband Maurice, on July 16, 2004 at 9:12 a.m., at the Winnipeg Health Sciences Centre, after a courageous three and a half year battle with the complications of advanced prostate cancer. Maurice suffered a stroke on the evening of July 15. He was surrounded by his loving family at his bedside and the incredible spirit and prayers of so many special friends as he began his next journey. His memories will be cherished by his loving wife Joyce; his sisters, Gertrude Hamonic Desharnais, Winnipeg, Jeannine and husband Jack Henderson, South Africa; brother Henri and wife Madeleine, St. Malo; nephews, Sean Henderson, Robert Gobeil, Lucien Hamonic; and niece Joele (Gerry) Friesen; great-nieces, Jessica and Amber Friesen; loving mother-in-law Lena Kelm, Winnipeg; sister-in-law Bettiann Kelm (Barry Baker), Calgary; brother-in-law Ernie Kelm, Ottawa; and Ernie's sons, Greg, Quebec City, Jeff (Catherine), Ottawa; their mother Yvette Kelm, Regina; and a large circle of friends and relatives. He was predeceased by his parents, Marguerite and Robert Hamonic; father-in-law Edward Kelm; and brothers-in-law, Kenneth Kelm and Henri Desharnais. Maurice was born icon in Winnipeg on September 3, 1940 and was raised in La Rochelle, St. Malo and Moose Jaw. He received a bilingual education in Manitoba. He was Marguerite and Robert's oldest child and the first grandchild of the Breton and Hamonic families. His four proud grandparents came from Brittany, France. We were married in St. Mary's Cathedral in Winnipeg, on August 2, 1969. We spent almost 35 wonderful years of marriage in love, devotion, friendship and partnership. We built and moved to our home (the North 40) in Headingley in 1975. Maurice loved life and nature. He gardened (especially multiplier onions, tomatoes, and roses), whipped around on his garden tractors, tended his many bird feeders and bird baths, barbecued summer and winter and rested and read sports news on the decks and in the sunroom, all the while fending off the deer, rabbits and squirrels!!! He loved the magic of Christmas and delighted in sharing this spirit with his neighbours by decorating the stately evergreens in his front yard with literally hundreds of lights each December. Indoors, he set up his miniature village, purchased poinsettias and decorated the family tree. Maurice enjoyed spirited gatherings of family and friends. He helped shop, chop, wash, and cook for so many "feasts". Our home was filled with so much love and laughter. Travel, camping and holidays also gave us many happy moments. We travelled across Canada many times, the United States, Hawaii, Barbados and Great Britain twice. Our trip to Ireland and England in 2002 was great! Before our marriage he had travelled to Africa and Europe. Maurice had a varied working career. He served in the Armed Forces, worked on the Northern DEW line and in home entertainment and hardware sales for many years. Here he made lifelong relationships. Larry, Mike, Don, and Barry at BDM, you were a great team! Maurice was a sports enthusiast, hockey, baseball, golf, football!!! He attended three baseball spring training camps in the United States and played in an old time hockey tournament in Arizona. Last year's trip to Phoenix, AZ with Wally and Bob was a great time! Many happy competitive hours were spent on his hockey pools. He faithfully checked the Internet at 6:30 a.m. for the hockey results. Moe is now busily organizing hockey pools in heaven! Maurice was a friend, a gentleman, a giver, an all star! Friendship was his hobby! His kind nature, infectious laugh, joie de vivre and positive attitude to life were easy to return. His inner fortitude and faith in God shone through even through his illness. Remembering him is so easy, but missing him is so hard! The support and unity of his many friends at his Thursday breakfast group and in the H and H group throughout his lifetime meant so much to us. The hockey awards you gave him, Rookie of the Year, Most Improved Player, Best Defence Player, "Fighter" of the Year when he was first diagnosed with cancer and the Do Right Award this May were always on display in our family room. They touched his heart and soul! The acts of kindness by our family (especially Bettiann), friends, neighbours (especially the Johnstons), the medical staff and Fr. Barry Schoonbaert are deeply appreciated. I sincerely thank Tom Townsend, a long standing friend, for delivering Maurice's Funeral Eulogy and for all his computer aid throughout the years so Maurice could run his hockey pools so effectively. In lieu of flowers, should friends so desire, donations may be made for a park bench in the Assiniboine Park in Maurice's honour, Steinbach Credit Union, 2100 McGillivray Blvd., Park Bench Fund. Moe spent many hours of enjoyment and reflection here especially during his illness. At Maurice's request cremation has taken place. Funeral liturgy will be held on Thursday, July 22 at 1:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church, 4588 Roblin Blvd. (parking access from Grant) with Fr. Barry Schoonbaert officiating. Interment will take place at Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens following the reception. ".... Hey, who blew out the candle? 'Don't be afraid', said Death, 'It was only a draft from the door. Come outside and pick yourself a star" G.

He began his career as a "railway mail clerk" and moved into the main post office finishing his career in "Industrial Engineering - Methods and Standards." Paul's younger years were spent participating in many sports, but his greatest satisfaction came during his many hunting and fishing trips, especially when accompanied by his brother-in-laws Otto and Bill. He was a long standing member of the Canadian German Society and the St. John's Sportsmen's Club. He enjoyed countless summers with family and friends at the camp at Green Lake in the Whiteshell Provincial Park. His keen interests and active participation in building the camp has and will continue to benefit families for decades to come. Dad never desired to have any more than the simple things in life. Projects he would undertake had to be done to perfection. He took pride in his home and his yard. He enjoyed growing his geraniums and tomatoes and would nurture them to maturity. He loved children and was proud of his grandchildren and their accomplishments. We will always remember him as a humble man, a man of his word, and a man of honor. The family wishes to express their sincere appreciation to all the doctors, nurses, and the staff on GA-4, SICU and MICU at the Health Sciences Centre, for their kindness, care, and compassion. As per Dad's wishes, cremation has taken place. We will celebrate Dad's life at his Funeral mass on July 22, 2004 at 10:30 a.m. at St. Anthony's Roman Catholic Church, 250 Burrin Avenue, Monsignor Michael Moore officiating.

RAYMOND ROUSSON

RAYMOND GEORGE ROUSSON With sorrow and sadness, our family announces that Ray passed away at his home suddenly and unexpectedly on Sunday, July 18, 2004. Ray is survived by his wife, Janet Rousson; son Rick Rousson (Holly) of The Pas; son Cecil Eger (Kameo) and grandson Kaemon of Winnipeg; daughter Tammy Eger and friend Ann Pegoraro of Sudbury; and son Ray Eger and grandson Braydyn of Winnipeg. He is also survived by his father George Rousson (wife Amanda and sons, Joshua and Francis) and sister Rita (sons, TJ and Rodrick) of Winnipeg. He was predeceased by his mother Anna. Ray will also be remembered by sister-in-law Irene Chabluk (Barry); his nieces, Sherry and Susan McCoy; brother-in-law Douglas (Vivian); and niece Katherine and nephew William; and many aunts, uncles and cousins from Quebec to British Columbia. Ray will be remembered by his friends, Joe Wiebe, Ray and Michele Eger, Bob and Madeleine Hennesey, and Rick Palmer for his love of the outdoors - camping, boating, RV travelling, and snowmobiling. People who were not lucky enough to really know Ray may of thought he was a little reserved and rough around the edges. However, friends and family who had the opportunity to share in his life knew different. Ray had a knack for electronics, computers and carpentry. If you had a computer problem, a gadget that did not work or a deck that required repair Ray was the first person you called. Ray worked for Water Survey Branch, Environment Canada for 35 years before retiring in 2002. During this time he never left a problem unsolved - even if he ended up in his underwear up to his neck in water. Over the past year he and Jan had the opportunity to live out their dream of travelling around the United States and Canada with dog Jay in their RV. He also had the opportunity to fish for halibut in Alaska, experience white water rafting on the Ottawa river, boat on the Colorado river, snowmobile in Yellowstone National Park, parasail in the Padre Islands, cruise the U.S. Virgin Islands, sightseeing on South Beach, and walking down Bourbon Street on New Year's Eve. A celebration of Ray's life will be held on Wednesday, July 21 at 7:00 p.m. in Kenora Community Funeral Home, 821 St. Clair St., Kenora, ON. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Ray's memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or a charity of your choice.
