JOSEPH CARYK It is with great sadness that our family announces the passing of our father, grandfather, great-grandfather Joseph of Winnipeg at the age of 95. Predeceased by parents Dmytro and Maria, wife Mary, brothers Billy, Mike, Jack, sisters Anna and Jean. Joe will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by daughter Lynne (Alex), grandchildren Sasha (Wanda), Tamara (Ryan), Judy (Brian) grandchildren Matthew and Tara, son George, great-grandchildren, Anna, Sofia, Emma and Paxton. Joe was born at home in Winnipeg in 1919, married Mary in 1942 and worked for the CPR Weston Shops until retirement. Joe participated in drama, choir, bowling and organizational activities at the Ukrainian Labour Temple. His other love was golfing, visiting family and friends and going on trips with the Badurist Choir and bowling tournaments across Canada. As per Joe's wishes there be no service and that his body be donated to science. In lieu of flowers friends may make a donation to a charity of their choice. "In our hearts there is a special corner that we will keep just for you, as long as life and memory lasts, we will always remember you".

Condolences & Memories (4 entries)

  • My deepest sympathies to Judy and George and their families for their loss. Uncle "Spot" was a great guy and I will always remember the way he "umpired" baseball games @ C.U.A.C. park. Rest in peace....bowl em straight, hit em down the middle and call em "fair" Heaven is a better place now that you've arrived...say "Hi" to auntie Mary. - Posted by: GORD DIDUCK () on: Nov 22, 2014

  • Both Mary and Joe were contemporaries of my parents, but I worked with Mary at People's Coop, and bowled 5-pin with Joe at Roxy Lanes, for years - sometimes on the same team (I still have the photo in my album). We attended many of those same bowling tournaments across Canada together, and I remember Joe's participation in the Bandurist Choir at AUUC concerts. My condolences Lynne and George. You're lucky you had your Dad for so long! - Posted by: Linda (Weremiuk) Henderson (Friend) on: Nov 15, 2014
