BRIAN JOSEPH KAKISH With great sadness our father Brian Joseph Kakish passed away suddenly on December 15, 2005 at the age of 57. Left to mourn are his children, Charlene, Richard and Shelley; grandchildren, Tyesha and Jordan; sister Toni Dujlovic and husband Robert; and his partner Debbie Smalden; numerous family members and a lot of good friends. He retired after 29 years with Winnipeg Transit and after many years with Beaver Bus Lines he moved his life on to the West. Brian resided in Calgary, AB and had a free spirit, where he continued to travel and see the countryside. His dream was a fifth wheel and a new place to wake up to every morning. A celebration of life will be held on Wednesday, December 21 at 11:30 a.m., Holy Cross Lutheran Church, 708 McCalman Ave. Pastor Richard Kruesel officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Brian's memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or Canadian Diabetes Association. May your spirit travel free and you have your dream Dad, enjoy your eternal life!
