CURTIS NOEL TOEWS January 14, 1974 June 9, 2007 It is with much heartache and sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our son, brother and uncle at home on Saturday, June 9, 2007. Curtis was predeceased by his mother Linda Marie Toews, at the age of 2; and is survived by his father Lawrence and stepmother Claire; his brother Bradley Toews (Jazmyn); his brother Stephen; sisters Kathryn Jones (Dean Snider), Carolyn Toews and her fiancé Cory Anaka; and his nieces Crystal Tachnak (Travis Bevan), Amber Tachnak, Kelly Tachnak, Ashley Toews, Ariel Snider, Juliette Snider, Amy Anaka; nephew Judas Snider and great-nephew, Alexander Bevan. Curtis leaves behind his partner Michelle Jeannin and their unborn child. Curtis played lead guitar in the Red Seed band where he leaves a huge hole in the band and in the hearts of its members - his friends Kris Erichsen, Jeff Nault, Rob McLaren and Rick Guspodarchuk. At the time of his death, he was employed at Action Recycled Auto Parts. A private funeral service has taken place. Flowers are gratefully declined and we encourage those who so desire to contribute to a trust fund which is being established for Michelle and Curtis' unborn child who is expected in early July.

  • I miss you each and everyday. - Posted by: Brad (Brother) on: Jun 09, 2021

  • It’s been 12 years to the day. I miss you so much, and wish I could show you everything that’s changed, and how much we’ve all grown. Your daughter especially, I wish she could have had you around. I’m sorry I was so disconnected from everything, I relive that day over and over thinking of what could’ve been. Wish I could talk to you again, thank you for being you. - Posted by: Damian (Partner’s son) on: Jun 09, 2019

  • Curtis is always with me, I love my big bro and only wish we could hang out, watch the playoffs together with Brad, and laugh our self sick. Then it would be great. But he is always near me and in my mind and heart. Sometimes, when I mention him or his talents at guitar to people, a person will say, I remember him he was good. Or one young guy was even taught by Curtis, what a surprise that was! Curtis knew a lot of people, and made people laugh, and cheer. He had his moments of being down or just off, but we all let that go because fundamentally he was good, talented, funny and lovable. Just wish this new generation of 'trophy' kids could have met Curtis, they lack any respect for what it takes to make music, or how to party. Curt is missed in our community and that ripple effect changes everyone, and not for the better. Here's to a fun guy, who is loved, peace be with you bro.

  • I was genuinely nervous about going back to school. Just two years earlier I'd been a victim of racism at the last college I attended. He and I didn't connect at first but somehow we eventually did and became best friends. For my birthday he and his then girlfriend took me out to celebrate. A night of pizza and drinking and dancing at the local bar. That was one of the best birthdays I had ever had. Five years ago learning of his death hit me like a freight train. I was completely devastated. Though we'd not seen each other in a few years it was still very painful. Curtis had such a deep impact on my life. I will be forever blessed to have had him be a part of my life. I cannot believe it's been five years since his passing. But I can look forward to that day when I leave this world because I know Curtis will be waiting for me with his big goofy smile. And that in itself finally makes his passing okay. - Posted by: richard courchene (best friend in college) on: Dec 28, 2012

  • We were so close, he's my sister Jayda's dad. I don't know how I'm going to explain what happened when shes older. It's already been 5 years. I miss him so much. - Posted by: alix jeannin (my moms boyfriend) on: Aug 07, 2012
