ARTHUR MARVIN WESELAKE December 17, 1941 - May 22, 2010 Unexpectedly, on Saturday, May 22, 2010 at the young age of 68 our Husband, Father and Papa was sadly taken from us at his favourite getaway. Left to cherish Marv's memory are his soul mate and the love of his life of 48 years of marriage Gail; son Darrell (Sharon); daughters Darcie (Walt) and Candice (Joe); grandchildren Jeffrey, Brendan, Jared, Jordyn, Samantha, AJ and Joelle; as well as all his loved brothers- and sisters-in-law Marshall (Carol), Shirley (Jerry), Linda (Gord), Larry (Deb), Herb (Lori), Marilyn (Chris), Curtis ( Deb), Ken and numerous nieces and nephews. His family and faithful companion Amber were his world. He was predeceased by his parents, Arthur and Jean and sister Marilyn. Marv's favourite times were spent just sitting back and listening to everyone around him laughing, talking and reminiscing. When he needed to he would take off and retreat to his quiet Haven up at Green Bay Resort Caddy Lake. Marv always put his family first and never failed to show his love and support the best way he knew how. Funeral Mass will be Celebrated on Friday, May 28 at 2:00 p.m. in the Holy Cross Roman Catholic Church, 252 Dubuc Street, Winnipeg, MB with Rev. Fr. Armand Le Gal and Rev. Fr. Martin Bradbury, presiding. The family wishes to express their heartfelt thanks to all the wonderful people up at Greenbay for all of their help. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Marv may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, 6 Donald Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba R3L 0K6. Life is too short, why God I ask... I know Gods plan was to give you a task. You were the perfect father with a heart of Gold... The most amazing husband and never too bold. We will miss you always, forever in our heart... Right to the end, right from the start. Why did you leave us, why oh why... You will always be our Angel in Heaven... Our STAR in the sky!
