MELVIN HANCHERUK

The family of Melvin Hancheruk of Winnipeg, MB and formerly of Yorkton, SK sadly announce his passing on March 26, 2023.

A devoted father and gido, Melvin loved to spend time with his son, Jason, daughter-in-law, Sara, grandchildren, Neesa and Emrick, and cat, Mexx. In retirement, he found joy in yard maintenance and helping others. Known as the local “Lawn Ranger”, Melvin was outside daily cutting grass, rototilling gardens, or shovelling snow for those in need. A true sports fan, Melvin could never pass up a chance to watch, attend, or discuss all matter of sports.

Melvin was predeceased by his parents, Nicholas and Katie Hancheruk, his wife, Eva, and son, Calvin. He will be forever remembered by countless friends and extended family members.

As per Melvin’s wishes, he will be placed at rest next to his wife and son at Yorkton Memorial Gardens in a private service. Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Bailey’s Funeral Home, Yorkton, SK.

In lieu of flowers, please support your local animal shelter.

Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

  • We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Mel. He was such a wonderful man who always had a smile for you and a warm welcome. He took very good care of my mom and dad's lawn during the summer and shoveled the snow in the winter. Mel always had time for a visit and he helped brighten their day during his visits. God Bless. - Posted by: Jill Stefanyshyn (Rowland) (friend) on: Apr 26, 2023

  • We got to know Mel through Bruce & Jean Brown his next door neighbours. For the last few years he did our spring clean up, and Norm did some repair jobs on his equipment over the years. We enjoyed having coffee with Mel at Tim Hortons and in our back yard. We are so sorry for your, and our loss. - Posted by: Norm & Vi Giesbrecht (Friends.) on: Apr 21, 2023
