THEODORE (TED) BOSAK Peacefully and with dignity, at the age of 86, Ted Bosak passed away at home with his family around him on Saturday, July 10, 2010. Ted was born on October 5, 1923, in Winnipeg, MB, the youngest child of Annie and Walter. He was predeceased by his brothers John and Andrew. He will be dearly missed by his wife of nearly 50 years Nadia (nee Krawchuk), daughter Susan, son Douglas, and son-in-law Brian. Ted was a veteran of the Second World War. He went on to work in the field of architecture. He was with the CPR engineering department for 11 years, and then moved to several architectural and engineering firms. He was involved in many major projects in Winnipeg, including the airport, city hall, and Richardson Building. He was a member of the Ukrainian Professional and Business Men's Club, and sang with the Ukrainian Male Chorus for 25 years. His family was the most important part of his life and, in 2000, he and his wife moved to Ontario to be closer to his children. He faced numerous health challenges over the years, including a severe stroke in 2009, with a strength of spirit that inspired everyone around him. Ted lived with a devotion to doing things to the best of his ability with integrity, values he passed on to his children. "My life on earth has passed. Remember my love for you, and my hope is you will care for each other as I have you." Ted's wish was to be cremated, with just his immediate family to reflect on his passing. Condolences and remembrances may be sent to The Bosak Family, 9 Lobraico Lane, Stouffville, ON, L4A 7X5. Donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
