Edward’s Obituary
The family of the late Edward Brezinski, beloved husband of Irene Brezinski of Invermay, SK, announce his passing at the Canora Hospital on September 19, 2021, at the age of 86 years.
Edward was born on July 16, 1935, to Peter and Francis (Shymkiw) Brezinski in the Dobrowody District, SK. He began his working career by holding various jobs until he received his certificate as an Autobody Technician through the Moose Jaw Technical Institute. He continued to be employed in Invermay, Canora, and Preeceville. His passion for farming allowed him to farm some land on his parent’s homestead, while perfecting his autobody talents and skills.
On November 8, 1955, Ed married Irene Pukal of Invermay, SK. Together, they were blessed with and raised their two daughters, Laureen and Cynthia. Ed took great interest in all aspects of his daughters’ lives. Additionally, he demonstrated great pride in being a rhythm guitar player in various bands, especially the ever-popular Country Drifters. He met a wide array of people during his many years of entertaining crowds. An avid music lover, he excelled in his ability to entertain.
Known for his quick wit, infectious smile, and his kind and compassionate spirit, Ed will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
