Andrew STEFANISZYN

June 12, 2007

STEFANISZYN Andrew Micheal Stefaniszyn 1930 – 2007 Treasured husband, father and friend has completed his brave journey here on earth, June 6, 2007 at the Red Deer Regional Hospital with Alice, his loving wife of 53 years at his side. His earthly journey is over but we know he has begun his life with his Heavenly Father - our Shepherd in heaven. We will greatly miss his sense of humour, his beautiful and friendly smile, his eagerness to crack a joke, his unending energy and always ready to lend a hand especially with his carpentry skills. Andrew loved to socialize with everyone, whether it was dancing, playing cards or his unique ability in wine making. Andrew was always willing to give of himself. Andrew lived his life with perseverance, in spite of life's circumstances. He was unassuming, loving and easygoing. He had a great love and sensitivity to his family. His family was his priority. Even though he has just passed onto glory - we, as his wife, Alice, and son, Dwain, grandsons; Ryan and Craig and great grandson, Connor already miss him terribly. He is also survived by his sister, Steffy Kowalilak and brother, Louis Stefaniszyn. Also in mourning are many in-laws, nieces, nephews, special friends and neighbours. Andrew was predeceased by his father, Albert and mother, Pearl, sister Rosie Lestus and two brothers; Rudolph and Martin. As a family we invite you join us at a Funeral Mass to be held at St. Mary's Catholic Church (#6 McMillan Avenue) on Thursday, June 14, 2007 at 11:00 a.m. with Father Paul Kavanagh Celebrant. If desired, memorial contributions can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society (4730A Ross Street, Red Deer, Alberta, T4N 9Z9) or the charity of choice.
