GEORGE MINTENKO
1926 - 2020

After a lengthy illness, George reluctantly left behind his beloved wife Geraldine, after 70 years of marriage, on Monday, April 13, 2020.
He leaves to mourn, his children, Georgina (Dennis), Kathy (Mel), David (Joy) and Patricia (Mike), seven grandchildren, Sheila, Jodie, Jeff, Thor, Christine, Robert, Ken, and nine great-grandchildren.
He was predeceased by his parents, Louie and Elsie Mintenko, his six siblings, and his grandson Richard.
George was born and raised in Shell Valley. He lived in Ontario and Manitoba and worked at many occupations. George instilled his hardworking work ethic in all of his children and grandchildren.
George enjoyed travelling and golfing with his family and friends. He was a very strong-willed man and cherished and fought for his beliefs and life. He had a big, generous heart and showed his family what love meant. Rest in peace.
Thank you to the staff at Concordia Hospital and especially to Dr. Kristin Harris.
There will be a private family service.
Flowers are gratefully declined. You may make a donation in his name to his church, St. George Orthodox Church.
