MARION HELEN TYMKO (nee KRUK) April 6, 1937 - June 15, 2014 It is with deep sadness we mourn the loss of our wife, mother and grandmother. Marion passed away peacefully, with her family by her side, in the comfort of the Beausejour Hospital. Marion was the eldest child of John and Annie Kruk, of Allegra, MB in the RM of Brokenhead. There she met, and then married the love of her life, Joseph Tymko, on October 29, 1955, and started their family a few years later. They were happily married for more than 58 years and have resided in Beausejour since 1962. Marion was predeceased by her parents John and Annie Kruk, as well as her in-laws John and Annie Tymko. She leaves to mourn, her children Allan, Kelly (Patti), and Brenda Wiedermann (Glenn), and Michele Tymko (daughter-in-law). She also leaves siblings Fern, Stan (Dianne), Mildred (Jim - deceased), Jean Tymko (sister-in-law), one niece, two nephews, and many, many friends. She was the most generous and loving grandma to Kurtis, Courtney, Danielle, Brandon and Nolan, all of whom were her pride and joy. Marion was passionate about many things in her life, her family first and foremost. Her beauty was reflected by her caring personality, her home, her immaculate garden and beautiful flower beds, and the numerous treasures she collected. She dedicated her life to taking care of her husband and family, always concerned about the well being of others, and we can't thank her enough for the warm and wonderful home she made for us all. Her cooking was one of the things that you would never forget if you were blessed to sit at her table. Marion was fortunate to have enjoyed travelling with her husband and close friends to Hawaii, Mexico and Cuba, where many fond memories were created. Marion also volunteered countless hours with the ladies of the parish to raise funds for their church. The family would like to thank the doctors and staff of the Selkirk Hospital, Health Sciences Centre, and Beausejour Hospital for their compassionate care. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to Beausejour Hospital, Box 1178, Beausejour, MB R0E 0C0. The funeral will take place at 10:30 a.m., Thursday, June 19, 2014 at the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Catholic Church, 319 6th St., Beausejour. Interment will take place at the Beausejour Ukrainian Cemetery. SOBERING FUNERAL CHAPEL & CREMATORIUM, Beausejour 204-268-3510 or MB Toll Free 1-877-776-2220 www.soberingfuneralchapel.com
