Tony is survived by his sister Jenny (George), and brothers Willis (Marg), and Paul (Marg). Tony was predeceased by his son Bradley Ruptash, and son-in-law James Kuzminski. Tony met the love of his life Sophie at a gathering in Toronto, their eyes met and their hearts started to beat as one. They spent years together in Toronto, Selkirk and finally Winnipeg. Tony was a kindhearted, generous person. He was always willing to help where needed and please the needs of others before his own. He had a quiet and gentle nature. He will be greatly missed. The family would like to extend their gratitude to Dr. Montgomery, to the physicians at CancerCare and to the Palliative Care Team at Riverview Health Centre for the wonderful care that was given to him. A celebration of his life will be held on Thursday, June 16, 2016 at 1:00 p.m. in the Gilbart Funeral Chapel, 309 Eveline St., Selkirk, MB. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Tony may be made to Cancer Society or Palliative Care.

I was sad to hear of Uncle Tony's passing. I have so many wonderful memories of him. He was always so kind and I was always very excited to see him. My occasional visits to Winnipeg to stay with him and Aunt Sophie will never be forgotten. Unfortunately my last visit with him was at my mom's funeral. My thoughts and prayers are with you Auntie as well as with the rest of your family. - Posted by: Barbara Watson (niece) on: Jun 15, 2016
