Obituary
LESKO, William “Bill”
June 19, 1932 – December 9, 2020
William “Bill” passed away peacefully at home on December 9, 2020 in the presence of his loving and supportive wife, Elizabeth (Liz). Mom and Dad were married for 63 years and were blessed with five children: Clifford (Sandra), Connie Banadyga (Duane), Karen Klein (Jerry), Gail Gillies (Gord), and Rick (Carol). Also left to cherish Dad’s memory are 23 grandchildren and 30 great-grandchildren. As well, Dad is mourned by his sister Evette Smith, and his sister-in-law Anne Lesko. Dad was predeceased by his parents John and Mary, his brother Jacob, and his sister Rose and her husband Jack Litman. Dad was born and resided in Vonda, SK until completing his secondary schooling. After he married Mom, there were a few towns and cities which were considered home; however, Saskatoon would eventually be the place where they settled. Dad built his career in the sales industry, and was well respected by his peers and clients. It is in this area that Dad spent the better part of his career employed by Kellogg Salada. Outside of his work, home, family, and faith were of paramount importance to Dad. As a family, we are indebted to both SHA Direct Client Funding Program and Village Rose Home Health Care for their unceasing efforts with regards to Dad’s well-being. With the greatest of respect and dignity, Dad received excellent care and compassion – for this, we are forever grateful. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the Funeral Mass will be celebrated on December 12, 2020 at Holy Spirit Roman Catholic Church by immediate family only. Memorial donations in Bill’s memory may be made to Chalice (www.chalice.ca), or a charity of your choice. Arrangements in care of John Schachtel – Mourning Glory Funeral Services (306) 978-5200.
