It is with great sadness and sorrow that we announce the passing of our dear husband, father and grandfather, Donald Joseph Kwiatkowski at his home at the age of 76.
He will be dearly missed and remembered by his beloved wife and friend of 51 years, Nadine, their son Mark and daughter Stacey (David Koss), his two grandchildren Sienna and Declan, his sisters-in-law Donna and Theresa, his niece Denise (Steve), nephew Glenn and great niece Giselle, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
He was predeceased by his parents Pauline and Joseph Kwiatkowski, his in-laws Rose and George Swaluk, brother-in-law Peter Simcoe and nephew Justin Koski.
Don was loved by all who had the pleasure of meeting him. He loved telling stories, had a wonderful sense of humour and enjoyed teasing and joking around with everybody. He enjoyed carpentry and was a talented handyman who loved to work in the garage, tinkering and fixing all things mechanical.
Family was important to Don. He enjoyed family road trips, travelling all over Canada and the United States. His last family vacation in 2017 was to Costa Rica where he enjoyed the tropical heat and different culture as well as the beautiful beaches and scenery. He loved to go fishing and playing with his two grandchildren. Safe in the arms of the angels, we will all miss you so much, we love you.
As per Donald’s wishes, cremation has taken place and a private celebration of his life will be held at a later date.
Flowers are gratefully declined and donations may be made to the ALS Society of Manitoba 1717 Dublin Avenue, #2A, Winnipeg, MB R3H 0H2
“Those we love don’t go away. They walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Forever loved and very dear.”
