Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryBOHDAN MICHAEL TYMCHYSHYN It is with great sadness we mourn the tragic death of Bohdan on Tuesday, January 8, 2013 in Watrous, SK at the age of 28. Bohdan is survived by his wife Justina (parents Elizabeth and Randy Saunders), his five beautiful children: Eric, Melany, Thomas, Zakary and Daniel; his parents Sandra and Glen Tymchyshyn; his sister Courtney DeGagne (Chris); and youngest sister Jamie Tymchyshyn. Bohdan's children were the light of his life. And, as it is true with most parents, it is hard to find a picture of him without one of the children in his arms. Bohdan could be seen most summer evenings enjoying the outdoor pool with all five kids. Bohdan was a high energy, bright child and we see these same qualities in his children. Bo's big smile and beautiful eyes could light up a room and he quickly learnt how to charm everyone. Bohdan and Justina moved from Winnipeg to Watrous nine years ago. Shortly after their arrival in Watrous, Bo found employment with Mainline Motors and quickly advanced through the ranks and became their IT Specialist for both the Watrous and Virden branch. In the little spare time he had with his busy family life, he repaired and built computers and other electronics. In addition to his family, he will missed by many friends and colleagues. A celebration of Bohdan's life will take place at Our Redeemers Lutheran Church, 304 5th Ave. W., Watrous, on Monday, January 14, 2013 at 1:00 p.m. with interment to follow at Watrous Cemetery. Honorary pallbearers are Bohdan's children. Private prayers for the family will be held on Sunday evening, January 13 at the church. Pastor Marilyn Stobbs will be officiating with funeral arrangements by Fotheringham-McDougall Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, Bohdan's mother has set up an Education Fund for the children. To make a gift, visit any R.B.C. branch, acct. 06857-5186424. Your prayers and support are greatly appreciated. Although he has left us far too quickly, we take great comfort in knowing Bohdan is resting peacefully in God's arms.

Young Daniel, I am your father's Auntie. I live in Winnipeg and go by the same "original" last name of your father. Bohdan was named after his grandpa Bud, a wonderful & loving man. I wish you and your siblings all the best things life has to offer. Nobody should grow up without "Dad" to guide them. I am here today because I wish that your father had been able to reach out to just one caring soul for that much needed guidance. I pray that you have that strength within and the power to know that you have other sources in this world. Your father was a beautiful soul and is often thought of & dearly missed. - Posted by: Karen (Aunt) on: Nov 23, 2023
