Dudley Paterson

DUDLEY ARMAND PATERSON July 24, 1914 - February 4, 2003 A veteran of Winnipeg broadcasting passed away peacefully at the McCreary Hospital, February 4, 2003. Dudley was born icon in Fort Rouge. Upon leaving school and after stints at many jobs (oil-field worker, taxi-driver, railway man), he joined the Winnipeg Grenadiers during the Second World War. Upon discharge, he married Nellie Krupa. He found his calling in radio where he enjoyed a colourful and fulfilling career for more than 40 years. He began at the old CKY in Winnipeg and then moved as station manager to CJGX in Yorkton, SK. He then moved back to Winnipeg and station CJOB, which was to be his "broadcast home" for the next 44 years. During these years, Dudley's became a familiar and trusted voice, which brought Winnipeggers the news and views of the time. Highlights were travels on the first Winnipeg-to-Toronto Air Canada flight and to Cape Kennedy for a space launch and, of course, the 1950 flood. Listeners will remember his as one of the voices that kept the city in touch with up-to-date reports (many delivered from a boat on the swollen Red or Assiniboine). In later years, as news editor, he kept pace with the fast-changing world for his listeners. One of his colleagues has remarked, "Dudley was always happiest with a mike in one hand and a cup of tea in the other." His happiest times were the annual summer jaunts to his "Laclu" where he could indulge his favourite pastimes, fishing and photography . After retirement, he and Nellie moved to McCreary, MB to be closer to family. Dudley was predeceased by a brother George; parents, George and Anna; sister Doreen McDonald; brother William (BC); wife Nellie; and daughter Riva. He leaves to contemplate a life "without Dudley, grampa and great-grandpa" his daughter Heather; son-in-law Chuck (McCreary, MB); daughter Lola (Detroit); daughter Lindsey (Qualicum Beach, BC); son George (Vancouver); grandchildren, Tara, Patrick, Andrew, Robin, Jonathon, Lisa, Martin, Terry, Kristen, Dillon, Riley, and Cassandra; and great-grandkids, Meaghan, Nicholas, Evan, and Riley;...and his faithful listeners. In keeping with Dudley's independent spirit, cremation has taken place and there will be a private family memorial service for interment at a later date. "At early morn, when all was still God took his soul to rest In silent peace he passed away Into a better place." We will forever be in debt to the staff of both the McCreary Personal Care Home and Hospital for their devotion and care of our father and grandfather. Friends wishing to make a donation in Dudley's memory may do so to the McCreary/Alonsa Personal Care Home, McCreary, MB, R0J 1B0. Dobchuk Funeral Home, McCreary in care of arrangements.

Ann worked with her sister Elizabeth at Modern Shoe Shop, then at Ray's Interiors. Several years following Peter's death, she sold her home in Steinbach and moved to Burlington, ON and then Brampton, ON to be closer to family. The grandchildren had the wonderful privilege of truly getting to know her and having her involved in their lives during this period. In 1988, recognizing her declining health, she returned to Steinbach and lived at the Resthaven until her death. The family is very grateful for the care throughout her stay at the Resthaven and wish to thank the dedicated staff for their gentleness and sensitivity in the days before her death. Ann will be so sadly missed by everyone who knew her. Her cheerful joy of life, wonderfully positive outlook, generosity, and love for her family, friends, neighbours and caregivers will never be forgotten.

Olga Seliger

OLGA SELIGER (SCHILBERG) Olga was born icon February 16, 1904 in Poland. She died peacefully in her sleep Monday, February 3, 2003. She was predeceased by her husband Rudolf and her daughter Else Barchet. In 1925, Olga married a local village boy, Rudolf Seliger and they had an only child Else. After the Second World War they found themselves in Germany from where they immigrated to Canada in 1948 after being sponsored by relatives. After relocating several times, Olga returned to Winnipeg in 1982 after her husband's death. Initially she resided at Villa Heidelberg, then Donwood Manor. Fiercely independent, she enjoyed living in her own suite until she felt her health necessitated moving into the nursing home facilities. Here the staff took great care of her. We would like to thank them at this time for their kind efforts. Though physically limited by now, her mental alertness allowed her to closely monitor all her affairs, so essential to her sense of independence. And she was certainly looking forward to celebrating her 100th birthday in 2004! We are sad that this landmark will not come to pass, but appreciate that she is in a better place now. Olga is survived by her son-in-law Paul K. Barchet; grandchildren, Rosemarie Watson (Ken) of Victoria, Carmen Barchet (Larry Desrochers), Paul M.
