Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryJOSEPH BOMMERSBACH Peacefully by the Lord's will on January 24, 2015 Joseph Bommersbach passed away at the Health Sciences Centre at the age of 91 years. He is survived by his loving wife Josephine; sons Robert (Lynn), and Andrew (Gail); grandchildren: Jordan, Kevin, Ainsley Michael, Kendra, and David; sisters Jadwiga and Jozefa; brother Frank; sister-in-law Eugenia; special relatives: Natalia Baran, Elizabeth and Kazimierz Dudek, John and Birdiene Baran, and many nieces, nephews and friends in Canada and Poland. Joseph was predeceased by his mother Aniela; father Martin, and brothers Bronek, Peter, and Jan. Joseph was born in the village of Przystan on November 30, 1923 where he spent his childhood. He fled Poland at the age of 18 and spent the next 11 years in Czechoslovakia and Germany. He arrived in Canada in 1952 and was employed as an upholsterer and transitioned to the aviation industry retiring from Air Canada in 1988. Throughout his life Joseph always had a strong work ethic. In his spare time he was always found working in his shop, upholstering furniture for loyal customers and friends. Joseph's faith in the Lord was instilled at a very early age. When he arrived in Canada it was important for him to live close to a church. Sunday was always a day of rest. He was a life time parishioner at Holy Ghost and St. Alphonsus Parishes. Joseph enjoyed gardening, camping, traveling and playing Skat with his Kolping buddies. Along with the many trips that he and Josephine made, the highlight was the trip to the Vatican and meeting Pope John Paul II. Besides being a loving husband and father, Joseph was the best Dziadek ever! He loved spending time with his grandchildren either at the park, at the beach in Gimli or just in his shop building creations. The family would like to thank Dr. Kenneth VanAmeyde and the wonderful, caring staff at the Health Sciences Centre on GH4. Prayers will be said on Friday, January 30 at 7:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main St. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Saturday, January 31 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Alphonsus Roman Catholic Church, Munroe and Brazier. In lieu of flowers, please donate to a charity of choice in honour of this wonderful man. Wieczny odpoczynek rac mu dac, Panie 204-586-8044
