T
he Minnedosa Health
Centre is excited to
unveil a new addition
to its X-ray arsenala
brand-new, state-of-the-
art Analog/Digital Radi-
ography Unit.
A number of provin-
cial and local health care
of cials gathered at the
Minnedosa Health Centre
on Friday, May 2nd for the
of cial unveiling of the
new piece of equipment
that will beneft both pa-
tients and technicians.
T is is very exciting
for us. Tis will speed
up how quickly we can
get our scans to a radi-
ologist which ultimately
speeds up how quickly
results are returned and
patient care can be es-
tablished. Tis addition
means great things for
Minnedosa Health Care,
commented Susan Gogal,
Charge Technician at the
Minnedosa Health Cen-
tre.
Along with the new
technology the X-ray
room received a complete
renovation, extensive
power upgrade and a few
additions to the control
room.
Te biggest change
is the ergonomics, prior
to the renovations there
was very little room. Ma-
neuvering in with stretch-
ers and pediatric work
was dif cult. T e older
machine was very cum-
bersome and dif cult for
patients to get on and of
of, explained Jon Coutts,
account manager with
Christie InnoMed.

A
fter a number of years
on the market a be-
loved Minnedosa business
has fnally sold and for the
new owner it is a dream
come true.
Uncle Toms restau-
rant has been a staple in
the Minnedosa area for
years. Many residents fre-
quent the restaurant on a
weekly basis and others
look forward to stopping in
during their weekends at
the cabin.
Before purchasing
Uncle Toms we preformed
thorough research and
found that it was a busi-
ness in great shape and
I believed that it was the
right business for me to
buy. I researched the area,
spoke with the previous
owner, and realized how
strong of a customer base
was here. You can feel that
it is a very special place,
said Jason Chi, the new
owner of Uncle Toms Res-
taurant.
Chi was born in China
and moved to Canada in
June of 2007. For the past
seven years he and his wife
have been living in Bran-
don and working at the
Maple Leaf plant.
Before moving to
Canada, Chi had worked
in a variety of diferent
professions. He has run
a restaurant, managed a
propane company and was
employed as a cook for a
number of years.
It has always been
my plan to one day own
my own restaurant. For me
this is a real dream come
true, continued Chi.
Te couple has been
in the community since
last fall and began actively
learning the ropes of the
restaurant from the previ-
ous owners in March.
Tis business has
been run by the same
person for the past 18
years. Bob and Sandy have
taught me a lot about this
business and continue to
be my teachers.
Chi notes that he and
his wife have received a
warm welcome from the
people in the community
and has found that many
are curious about his in-
tentions with the business.
I have inherited a leg-
acy. I plan on starting from
there and then listening to
the customers on how to
make things better. I cer-
tainly wont be changing
the business dramatically,
I will just adjust it where
I feel it can be improved,
continued Chi.
While Chi comes from
a background of Chinese
cuisine, he has no inten-
tions of changing the
menu but may add in a
few of his own favours
through daily specials or
feature items.
Jason and his wife
have been married for 24
years and have one son
who is currently attending
the University of Manito-
ba studying engineering.
We have found a
home and will be mov-
ing to Minnedosa on the
15th of this month. We are
looking forward to becom-
ing contributing members
of this community, Chi
added.
For me,
this is a real
dream come
true

O
n May 11th, the Minnedosa Lions Club will be join-
ing other Lions Clubs across Canada in raising
funds for the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides.
Tis is a national charity and its mission is to assist Ca-
nadians with a medical or physical disability by provid-
ing them with a Dog Guide at no cost.
Since 1983, Lions Foundation of Canada has pro-
vided specially trained Dog Guides to more than 2,000
men, women and children from coast to coast. Each
Dog Guide costs approximately $25,000 to raise and
train but they are provided at no cost to qualifed ap-
plicants.
Dog Guides Canada trains six dif erent types of Dog
Guides: Canine Vision Dog Guides; Hearing Ear Dog
Guides; Service Dog Guides; Seizure Response Dog
Guides; Autism Assistance Dog Guides and Diabetic
Alert Dog Guides. Each program trains Dog Guides to
meet the diferent needs of people. Breeds commonly
used are Labrador Retrievers and Standard Poodles,
Golden Retrievers and some smaller breeds. Te train-
ing for a Dog Guide is an intensive four to six month
period, training one-to-one with a qualifed trainer.
Once fully trained, the dog is matched with a client who
spends one to four weeks at the Oakville training facil-
ity, learning how to handle, trust and bond with their
new Dog Guides.
Te Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides does
not receive any government funding and relies on the
support of fundraising events and donations from ser-
vice clubs, corporations, foundations and individuals
across the country.
Tis years walk will begin at the Minnedosa Com-
munity Conference Center at 9:00 a.m. To join the walk
or for further information, please contact Donna at 204-
867-2330.

A
fter receiving a viable
of er to purchase on
the CP Rail Train Station,
Minnedosas Heritage Inc.
committee held a public
meeting on Tuesday, May
6th to open the foor for
discussion on the build-
ings future.
Approximately 20
people attended the meet-
ing, the majority of who
have been involved in the
Save the Station initiative
in the past. However, the
meeting did draw a few
new faces and after much
discussion, the group
unanimously voted to
proceed with the project.
T e attendance to
the public meeting was
good. However, many of
the people that came out
were older citizens. With
this lease contract being
ten years with the possi-
bility of expanding it for
another ten, down the
road we are going to need
some younger people to
step forward and help
out, said Brion Pollon,
chairman of the Heritage
Inc. committee.
We have not formally
decided but it appears
that we have the publics
support. Barring any un-
foreseen issues with the
contract, this deal will be
moving forward.
Pollon will be meeting
with lawyer, Norm Sims
on Monday to review the
contract. Following that
the committee will gather
to pose a motion to sign
the ofer to purchase doc-
uments.
From that point the
group will work to receive
approvals of the sale trans-
ferwhich are required
from the monuments
board in Ottawa, as well as
a structural engineer and
Fire Commissioner.
As far as physical
work on the building it-
self, the group hopes to
get busy this summer but
this will be dependent on
how quickly approvals can
be met.
Tis will be a small
project but we still need
people who are willing
to help out. As far as the
actual renovations to the
building, some of it can
be done by volunteer la-
bour but other areas like
the electrical and plumb-
ing work will have to be
done by professionals in
order to meet the required
codes, added Pollon.
As this project has
been in the works for al-
most two decades, the
group has a good idea of
the work that will need to
be carried out. Once the
paper work has been com-
pleted the committee will
create a more-detailed
plan of the buildings ren-
ovations.
We discussed the
possibility of a model rail-
road but there wasnt a lot
of interest shown in that at
this time. So we will pro-
ceed with plans for a rail
museum and tourist infor-
mation centre and may al-
locate space in the build-
ing for the possibility to
develop the model down
the road, commented
Pollon.
Te committee is hop-
ing to have reviewed the
contract documents and
sign the purchase agree-
ment in the weeks ahead.

Hello Reena,
I would like to know
what you would recom-
mend to use as a cleaner
for diferent types of cos-
tume jewelry as natural
as possible without any
chemicals. Marla
Dear Marla,
Soak jewelry in the
cooled water in which
potatoes were boiled. Let
stand for one hour. Rinse.
Or place the jewelry into a
mixture of 1 cup water and
2 Alka Seltzer tablets, one
tsp. lemon juice and one
and a half tsp. dish soap.
Leave 2 minutes and rinse.
Dear Reena,
Can you advise me as
to why when frying or pick-
ling garlic they turn green?
How can I prevent this
from happening? I read it is
safe to eat green garlic but
it is unsightly. I have also
read that it is due to imma-
ture garlic so how does one
buy it correctly? Perhaps
there are many reasons for
this occurrence. Mary
Dear Mary,
Garlic contains an-
thocyanins, water-soluble
pigments that turn blue,
green or purple in an acid
solution. While this color
transformation tends to
occur more often with
immature garlic, it dif-
fers among cloves within
the same head of garlic.
Te garlic favor remains
unchanged, and is totally
edible and not harmful.
Some other factors that
may cause color change
are: A reaction to the acid
found in vinegar, lemons
or onions. Te material
make-up of the frying pan
or chopping knife. Copper
in your water. Using a salt
other than canning salt for
pickling. To prevent color
change; Blanche garlic for
30 seconds or saut garlic
in butter or olive oil. When
purchasing garlic, look for
dry bulbs, of white in col-
or. Te peel should be dry
and shed easily. Te garlic
cloves should be unblem-
ished and frm when you
squeeze them. Take a mo-
ment in the store to smell
garlic; it will carry no odor
unless it is overripe (which
you dont want).
Dear Reena,
Can you tell me what
eyebrow threading is
please? Angelica
Dear Angelica,
Eyebrow threading
originated in India and is
a body hair removal tech-
nique. It lasts 3 or 4 weeks
and uses no toxic products.
Tis technique is for men
and women and involves
twisting a long thread into
a double strand; the hair is
picked up and strategically
shaped much like plucking
or waxing.

T
he past month has
seen a lot of activ-
ity within our club, Rapid
City Chutes n Boots 4-H
Rodeo Club.
In mid April,twoof
our Intermediate mem-
bers, Joseph Hunter and
Daisy McKee,attended
a provincial 4-H week-
end event held at Canad
Inns in Portage to explore
technology and self im-
age. Activities included
selfie bingo, photo scav-
enger hunt, rock on lip
sync, motivational speak-
ers, workshops,and
swimming. At this event,
Daisy was awarded a 4-H
travel opportunity and
will be heading out to
Alberta this summer to
attend the Aspiring Inter-
mediate Members Camp.
On the weekend of
April 18th to 20th we had
a fundraiser when our
club worked the gates of
Horse 3 at the Westoba
Ag Centre in Brandon.
One of our members,
Charlee McLaughlin-
Ventnor took part in a
number of C.H.A. clinics
as shes working towards
her C.H.A certification.
Provincial Commu-
nications were held in
Winnipeg on April 26th
and our club was rep-
resented by Daisy and
Lauren McKee. They
competed in the Interme-
diatetwo person category
with their visual Happy
Trails. Despite not plac-
ing, it was awesome to see
how far they have come
through this competition.
This past weekend
Chutes `n Boots hosted
a very successful South
Parkland Fun and Rec-
ognition Day withmem-
bers attending from
Decker Country Riders,
Binscarth-Russell Vari-
ety, Prairie Pride Riders,
Oakburn Achievers, Fox-
warren-Solsgirth Beef,
Riding Mountain Wran-
glers, Neepawa Silver
Spurs, Minnedosa Multi
Purpose, and Rapid City
Chutes`n Boots 4-H Ro-
deo Club.
The day began at
midday with a three-hour
equine clinic which in-
cluded horsemanship
with Tara Hofer, goat ty-
ing with Shannon Jack-
son, showmanship with
Susan Wright and making
show-shine with Roberta
McLaughlin.
Beef club members
had the opportunity to
attend a very informa-
tive cattle clinic put on
by Shawn Airey and Multi
Purpose members re-
ally enjoyed their leather
workshop, tooling belts
with Peter Schueler from,
All About Leather.
Once the clinics and
workshops were over, ev-
eryone returned to the
Legion Hall where our
senior members hosted a
Minute to Win It game
show and 4-H members
had the opportunity to
complete a picture quiz.
A supper of pulled pork
followed by an ice cream
sundae bar was enjoyed
by all who attended.
Throughout the af-
ternoon, interviews took
place for South Parkland
Area Entrance Bursaries
and Gold Watch Awards.
After supper awards were
presented. The three $200
bursaries were awarded
to Virginia Olsen, Shan-
non Jackson and Kerrie
Gurr respectively, and
the Gold Watches were
presented to Shannon
Jackson of Prairie Pride
riders and Katie Hunter
and Charlee McLaughlin-
Ventnor, both of Rapid
City Chutes `n Boots 4-H
Rodeo Club. The Gold
Watch is awarded in rec-
ognition of the highest
achievement by a 4-H
member, so to have two
awarded within our club
was very special. The
evening ended with a
dancewith music pro-
vided by Tyler Addison.
The following day
nine members of our club
took their horses down to
Thunderbird Horse Cen-
tre, Brandon, where they
had a full day of doing
ground work, exploring
the outdoor playground
with their horses, riding,
and learning with Clini-
cian Sharra Sage. The
members were also lucky
enough that Neil McLeod
brought his horse into the
arena and gave them a dis-
play of working at liberty
with his palomino stud.
Our ride nights
start this Thursday at
the arena in Rapid City
weather permitting, so
if anyone is interested
in coming out to watch
youre more than wel-
come to come on down!

D
iagnosed with severe
scoliosis a year-and-
a-half-ago, fourteen-year-
old Amy Kreshewski is an
extremely composed and
brave young woman who
is on the path to accom-
plishing amazing things
with the challenges she
has been faced with.
On May 31st a benef t
social will be held to raise
funds to help Amy go to
an international support
group convention that will
enable her to become a
leader in advocacy for her
disorder.
Amy Kreshewski was
your average thirteen-
year-old, prospering in
middle school and active
in volleyball, dance and
soccer, until one aver-
age Wednesday when her
whole world changed in
the blink of an eye.
On December 5th,
2012 I was playing volley-
ball and hurt my shoulder.
It kept bothering me so I
went into the hospital. I
had a torn ligament in my
shoulder, but when the
doctor examined me he
discovered that I also have
severe scoliosis, Amy ex-
plained.
Scoliosis is an abnor-
mal lateral curvature of
the spine. Te cause of this
disorder is unknown but
it has been found twice as
common among girls and
develops over time, usu-
ally causing it to be undis-
covered until the age of 10
to 14.
Prior to Amys injury
she had no idea that there
was anything wrong with
her back. She didnt even
know what scoliosis was or
what it meant to have the
disorder.
To the surprise of her
and her family, the doctor
informed them that she
has a 47.5 degree lateral
curve in her spine.
I have two curves in
my spine. One in the upper
portion and another in the
lower, and it is also rotated.
It is very dif cult. Some-
times one thing will help
relieve part of my spine
but then it makes the other
area worse.
Mild scoliosis is when
a patient has a spinal curve
of 10 to 25 degrees, mod-
erate being 26-40 degrees
with a 68 percent chance
of progression and severe
scoliosis is a spinal curve
of 40 degrees or more with
a 90 percent chance of pro-
gression.
When I was f rst diag-
nosed it was scary. I didnt
know anything about it.
And because we knew so
little, we have been trying
to see as many profession-
als as we can and gather as
much information as pos-
sible, continued Amy.
Ive done Physiother-
apy, seen Orthopedic Sur-
geons and Neurologists.
I have done craniosacral
therapy, which is where
they attempt to move your
spine around by shift-
ing your skull. I have tried
natural path options and
refexology. Tere is con-
stant pain and I had to quit
playing sports.
Conditions that oc-
cur as a result of scolio-
sis include shortness of
breath, chronic fatigue,
headaches, mood swings,
back, knee and hip pain,
diminishing lung capac-
ity, strain on heart and re-
spiratory system, muscle
spasms, slow nerve action,
numbness, cardiac and ab-
dominal muscular distur-
bances, pelvic, hormonal
and digestive system dis-
turbances.
I have experienced
most of the symptoms and
for a while I couldnt walk.
Te dif erent therapies
have helped and it appears
as though I was getting
better but in my scans my
spine is still the same.
Amys next step will be
to see a spinal surgeon in
Winnipeg, who will assess
her possibility for surgery.
Scoliosis spinal sur-
gery consists of an 8 to 10
hour surgery where steel
rods are attached to the
spine to straighten and
keep aligned. Te recov-
ery time for the surgery
is on a case-to-case ba-
sis but is estimated to be
around three months.
Choosing surgery is a
hard decision and is usu-
ally a last resort for most
people, continued Amy.
Benefits from the
surgery are more room
for your organs to func-
tion, more energy, relief
of pain and a longer life
expectancy.
From diagnosis to
countless doctors ap-
pointments, Amy and her
family have pressed for-
ward, keeping faith and
focusing on the positive.
Tis is the journey
that we have been given
and so we are pressing
forward the best we can.
It has certainly been a
humbling experience but
having a positive outlook
is extremely important,
added Amys mother,
Dianne Kreshewski.

A
new addition has ar-
rived at the Bison
Park. A calf was born at the
Minnedosa Bison com-
pound in the morning of
Monday, May 5th.
Bison generally car-
ry their young through
the fall, winter and early
spring, giving birth mid-
spring to increase the like-
lihood of the new calf sur-
viving the winter months.
When f rst born the
bison calves have reddish-
fur and weigh around 50
pounds. Tey begin to
stand an hour after birth
and begin to walk shortly
afterwards. By the middle
of the frst winter the baby
bison will be feeding itself
independently and its fur
will transition into the typ-
ical brown color.
Bison grow to be ap-
proximately 725 kilograms
and generally live up to 20
years, longer when in cap-
tivity.
Tese huge animals
have poor eye sight but a
great sense of smell and
dont let their slow move-
ments fool you; they can
run up to 55 kilometers
an hour. Tey are also ex-
cellent swimmers and are
most active at night and at
dusk.

M
other Nature always
bats last. Although
the calendar says we
should be well into plant-
ing, Mother Nature is tell-
ing us otherwise. Very few
trees have begun to bud
with water in most felds
still sitting at abnormally
high levels. Tese signs
all point to higher than
normal frost levels for this
time of year. Typically once
frost levels drop we see
water levels in sloughs and
potholes drop signifcantly
along with frost boils sur-
facing on our gravel roads
and highways. Hope-
fully the relatively warm
rain earlier this week will
help bring the frost out
and allow f elds to be-
come equipment ready.
Soil temperature are
still quite cool coming in
at between 3-5 degrees
Celsius once averaged over
a morning and evenings
reading and then averaged
over several days. Tese
temperatures are certain-
ly warm enough for feld
peas, wheat and barley
but still somewhat cool for
most other crops.
Delayed Seeding
Tips although seeding
has been delayed some-
what most can still get the
crops seeded on time if we
can get into the feld by
early next week. If seeding
becomes further delayed
then producers may want
to look at some of the fol-
lowing delayed seeding
techniques:
Broadcast Nitrogen -
Te delay in seeding has
meant that many growers
are looking at alternate
methods in applying their
nitrogen allowing them to
free up air-seeder capac-
ity for more seed and fewer
stops for flling. Tere are
a couple of options that
producers might consider
where the nitrogen can be
broadcast both pre and
post seeding. Untreated
urea should ideally be
broadcast just ahead of
the air-seeder allowing
the seeding operation to
incorporate the urea to
minimize losses due to
volatilization. Post seed-
ing untreated urea broad-
cast applications are more
susceptible to losses since
they are reliant on rainfall
to wash the nitrogen into
the rooting zone. Another
option is to use liquid UAN
or urea ammonium nitrate
28-0-0. Te advantage with
UAN is that besides a drib-
ble surface band it can also
be injected both pre and
post seeding with minimal
losses. Both options add
some additional expense
to the overall nitrogen cost
however the additional
acres seeded should more
than compensate for this
extra expense.
Growing Degree Days
- Each crop has a cer-
tain growing degree day
requirement for it to reach
physiological maturity.
One of the classic miscon-
ceptions we see virtually
every year is the seeding
of f ax at the tail end of
seeding. Flax actually has
a higher growing degree
day requirement than red
spring wheat coming in at
1200 versus 1175 for RSW.
Canola requires 1040 fol-
lowed by oats at 961 and
barley at 850. Seeding
protocols where possible
should be done with these
GDDs in mind. Te key de-
termining factor with fax
is to ensure soil tempera-
tures are averaging close
to the 5-6 degree Celsius
mark.
Increase Seeding
Rates - Higher plant pop-
ulations will reduce til-
ler development which
typically mature 3 days lat-
er than the main stem. One
can increase seeding rates
by 10% if seeding after May
15th and an additional 10%
if seeding after June 1st.
Phosphorous Fertil-
ity Phosphorous pro-
motes early root growth
which encourages uni-
form growth and uniform
maturity. Given our lower
trending soil phosphorous
levels the rate of phospho-
rus should be even further
increased if seeding is de-
layed.
Seed Shallow and at a
Uniform Depth In most
instance a seeding depth of
no more than 1 inch for ce-
reals and inch for canola
is necessary under moist
soil conditions. Seeding at
these depths does require
seed placement to be uni-
form which is all too often
compromised by seeding
speed. In order to maintain
a uniform depth seeding
speed should not exceed
more than 5.5 mph where
possible.
Use a Seed Treatment
Seed treatments will en-
sure that seeds will not be
infected by the various soil
diseases and insects and
can provide the crop with
some early season vigor to
help over-come any addi-
tional early season stress-
ors. Tis is especially criti-
cal if soils are cold or wet or
when seeds are suspected
of having disease issues.

IN MEMORIAM
Matilda Melcosky
1923-2014
After 90 years of life, Matilda Melcosky entered into the arms of God
on the evening of April 16th, 2014 at the Minnedosa Health Centre.
Her strong will to live, unwavering faith in God, and the love and
prayers of family, friends, and many supporters carried her through
her struggles in the past year.
Matilda Melcosky (Fedorkie) was born on April 26th, 1923 on the
family farm by Sandy Lake, MB to Peter and Dora Fedorkiw. Matil da
attended Jackfsh School and completed Grade 8. She married Peter
Melcosky on November 6, 1945 at the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Catholic
Church. Peter and Matilda farmed together and soon began their
family. Tey remained on the farm until 1967 before Peters declining
health forced them to move to Minnedosa. Tey celebrated 30 years
of marriage together.
After moving to Minnedosa, Matilda started to work at the Gateway Motel. She also worked at the 4
and 10 restaurant as a cook. In June 1968, she took a cooking job at the famous Tremont Hotel. She
worked there until the Tremont closed its doors. She continued her cooking career at the Minnedosa
Inn and Valley Motor Lodge. She also did Home Care and private housecleaning before retiring.
She was predeceased by her father, Peter in 1946; her mother Dora in 1972; her husband Peter in
1976; four brothers Nicholas in 1922, John in 2000, Steve in 2004, Paul in 2006 and sister, Mary in
2012 and one brother-in-law, Bill in 1983. She will also be reunited with her son, Earl who passed
away in 2009; her daughter Pat who passed away in 2011 and great grandson Kaleb.
Left to share the many memories are her daughters: Shirley of Minnedosa; Elsie (Bruce) of Brandon;
Eleanor (David) of Minnedosa; son, Allan of Vancouver and son-in-law, Terry (Pat) and daughter-
in law Lori (Earl) of Winnipeg. Also mourning her death are three granddaughters: Denise of
Minnedosa, Angela (Ed) of Brandon and Kylie of Winnipeg. Four grandsons: Bryan, Ryan (Camille)
of Minnedosa, Jonathan (Kendle) and Tyson of Winnipeg. She will also be missed by her great
grandchildren Alexis, Delainey, Brody and Olivia. She will be truly missed by her dear friend, Marie
Delgaty who was like another daughter. She leaves behind her sisters-in-law: Ella and Rosaline of
Winnipeg, Mary of Minnedosa, Sophie of Sandy Lake, Emily (Harold) of Burnaby, BC and brother-in-
law Steve (Jeanie) of CA. She leaves behind many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Matilda was a very active member of the Holy Ascension Ukrainian Catholic Church in Minnedosa.
She enjoyed gardening, making perogies, being secretary for the church council and of course,
Bingo! She was an active participant at the 50 Plus Activity Centre in Minnedosa where she enjoyed
playing cribbage.
Te last year was a long one, but Matilda continued to show her determination in her battle. In the
last few weeks, her family spent countless hours by her side. She created many memorable occasions
for her family. Te family will always cherish these many memories of their mother, mother-in law,
grandmother and great-grandmother.
A celebration of Matildas life was held on Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at 11:00 am at the Holy Ascension
Ukrainian Catholic Church in Minnedosa. An interment was held at the Minnedosa Cemetery.
Pallbearers were grandsons, Bryan, Ryan, Jonathan, Tyson, granddaughter, Kylie and Ed Wolbaum.
Minnedosa Funeral Service was in care of arrangements. Donations in Matildas memory can be
made to the Minnedosa Palliative Care. Vichnaya Pamyat - We will miss you
Robert Bob
Clifford Lee
1943-2014
Peacefully, early on Saturday evening, April 26th, 2014, Bob went to be with his Lord and Savior.
A funeral service was held in Odessa, Ontario on Wednesday, April 30th, followed by interment at
the Bath United Church Cemetery.
Bob is survived by his wife Sharon of Bath, Ontario, sisters-in-law Cathy and Stephanie, his brother
Phillip (Megan) of Saskatoon, his niece Jennifer (Chris) of Calgary, two grand-nephews, Finn and
Paiton of Calgary, Carol Lee, his cousin, of Minnedosa, and numerous cousins and extended family
throughout western Canada. Bob was predeceased by his father Sigurd Lee in 1981 and his mother
Alice Paiton (Lee) Scammell in 2004.
Bob was raised in Minnedosa and moved to Winnipeg in the late l960s. He later moved to Ontario
where he met Sharon, the love of his life.
Bob and Sharon were married for 18 years. Tey moved to the beautiful town of Bath in 2008 where
they enjoyed walks by Lake Ontario and many happy moments with friends, family, and their
energetic pup, Angel.
Bob will be dearly missed. His kind heart, his gentle spirit, his infectious laugh, and his steadfast
faith endeared him to all who knew him.
