WILLIAM B. (BILL) KOSTYK March 15, 1921 - May 6, 2012 Peacefully on Sunday, May 6, 2012, at Donwood Manor Personal Care Home, Bill decided to join his wife Jessie, who predeceased him in March 2002. Bill was born in Selkirk, MB to father Theodore (Fred) Kostyk and mother Eva (Lucko). He was one of six brothers and six sisters. Bill is survived by his son Martin, wife Barbara and granddaughter Angela; three sisters Kate Bennet, Doris Wachal and Alexandra Slovinsky; brother John and Mary, and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by sisters Ann Kudrych, Pearl Crouch and Nellie Sheard; brothers Andrew, Peter, Kirby, and Fred. In compliance with Bill's wishes cremation has taken place at Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens. There will be no service. There are not enough words of gratitude for the personal care that Bill received for his lengthy stay at Donwood Manor; also the support from the Department of Veteran Affairs.
