GREGORY KOKOTYN While doing what he enjoyed most, fishing, Greg went missing on the Red River in Selkirk on November 12, 2006 at the age of 46. Greg will be lovingly missed by his sister Lisa Kokotyn-Chernecki; nephews, Tyler and Nicholas; Aunt Marie Rose and favorite Uncle Eddie; cousins, Eddie Jr, Mikey Przednowek and their families, Mary Ann and Dr. Herbie Barton and their family. He will also be missed by all his pets. He was predeceased by his parents. Greg was a wonderful son, brother and uncle who loved his family more than anything. He possessed a great love for the outdoors and had a great affinity for animals. Those who knew him, appreciated his fondness for practical jokes, especially the boys at Bristol Aerospace where he had worked for 27 years. Hope you fellows and friends know how much you meant to him. Thanks to the Winnipeg Police Department, Selkirk R.C.M.P. and Fire Department for their recovery efforts. Also, thanks to those who will continue to search the river for his remains. A celebration of Greg's life will be held on Sunday, November 26 at 7:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main Street. Flowers gratefully declined. Donations may be made in Greg's memory to the Winnipeg Humane Society. Now rest peacefully in Mum's arms, my beloved brother, until we are together again. I love you. Alpine Rules! CROPO FUNERAL CHAPEL 586-8044
