Obituary of Martha Margaret Kiziak
Martha Margaret Kiziak
(November 1, 1933 – January 29, 2021)
Martha Margaret Kiziak of Camrose, AB, formerly of Holden, AB, passed away on Friday, January 29, 2021, at the age of 87 years.
Martha was born and raised in the Ryley vicinity of Haight to John and Eva Hrabec amongst eleven other brothers and sisters. The Hrabec family were no strangers to working hard and hosting many family weddings and events.
When Martha was 17, she attended a local dance and met the love of her life, Peter Kiziak. On July 7, 1951, Peter and Martha were married, and together they bought a farm in the Kopernick area where they raised six children. Peter and Martha worked hard and happily together raising cattle and grain farming. They were very involved with the Kopernick Parish and enjoyed hosting many family celebrations and welcomed anyone into their home.
Martha enjoyed cooking, baking, making feather quilts, gardening, and of course her animals. Martha loved taking videos of her family and grandchildren which are treasured. Martha was the type of person that would make not only her family but everyone around her proud and content. In 2009, Peter and Martha retired from the farm to Daysland and it didn’t take long for them to welcome more friends and make their new house a “home”.
Left to cherish Martha’s memory are her children Len (Liz) of Vegreville, Ken (Lori) of Bruce, Allan of Camrose, Linda (Terry) Pyzik of Holden, and Sharon Kiziak (Tom Hughes) of Camrose; sisters Mary, Lena, Suzie, and brother Andy. Martha also leaves behind her treasured seven grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.
Martha was predeceased by her husband Peter in 2016, and son Douglas in 1975. She was also predeceased by her siblings Ann, Harry, Peter, Bill, Emily, Barbara, and Meroslav.
Due to Alberta Health regulations, a private family service will be held.
If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Martha’s memory may be made to the Daysland Cemetery Fund or to the S.T.A.R.S. Air Ambulance.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Martha
Margaret
