We are sorry to announce the passing of William Amos Pyett, during his morning nap on Sunday, August 11th, 2024, at the age of 92 years.
Dad was born on Section 29, Township 43, Range 8 W2 near Melfort, SK on October 22nd, 1931 to Irvin and Mabel. He was the youngest of two boys in a family of six children.
Dad was working for his sister and brother-in-law near Leinan when he met mom (Lois H. Moen) who grew up on a farm near Stewart Valley. They were married November 11th, 1955 in Swift Current where all their children were born.
Dad lost two “40’s” of whiskey betting on a boy and finally won one bottle back on the last child.
Dad had a variety of jobs over the years as a painter, grain buyer, hotel owner, security guard and lastly a corrections officer.
Mom and dad retired at Thomson Lake Regional Park 27 years ago.
Dad loved playing cards, bowling, golf, fishing, travelling, crossword puzzles and watching mom work.
He was always out and about on his three-wheel E-Z Go golf cart and if he saw someone to visit with he would stop in. His drink of choice was a rye and coke press. A wide selection of beverages were always handy on their covered deck at the lake where they hosted many a Happy Hour!
Dad was predeceased by mom, June 7th, 2022 and is survived by his three children: Lana (Trent) Olson, Lynn (Steve) Mayer and Lyle (Rhonda) Pyett; grandchildren: Kyla (Jonathan) Thomason, Logan (Amy) Pyett, David (Jordanna) Olson, Paige (Nolan) Sandvold, Cobi (Dyllan) Mayer, Rance Mayer, Chance Mayer (deceased), and Shaunna (Rick) Kullman; great-grandchildren: Nash, Tyler, Bronwyn, Foster, Hardy, Alivia, Cruz, and Jett; as well as his youngest sister, Diane; sisters-in-law: Liane, Phylis, Anne, and Reta; and many nieces and nephews.
Dad will be greatly missed!
We especially want to thank the staff at the Lafleche Long Term Care facility for making his stay so enjoyable with all the teasing, banter, kindness and support.
A family gathering for Dad and Mom will be held at a later date. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. Andrew Pratt, Funeral Director 306-693-4550
