Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryPETER KUNY IN LOVING MEMORY OF OUR FATHER, It is with deep sadness the family announces the passing of our father Peter Kuny on Tuesday, March 5, 2013, at the age of 93. Dad will be sadly missed by his son Ralph (Iris - deceased), daughters Louise, Gerri, and Sandra (Gordon). He will be lovingly remembered by his six grandchildren: Kerry (Craig), Jason, Mark (ReneƩ), Brent, Jeffery and Makeda, five great-grandchildren: Broden, Blake, Brooke, Ellery and Grayson, his brothers Joe (Emma), George (Alfie), Wally, sister Jean (Bob), and sister-in-law Clara as well as many nieces, nephews, church family and friends. Peter was predeceased by Olga, his loving wife of 64 years. Peter was born June 1, 1919 in St. Julian, Saskatchewan. He served in the army after which he had many jobs until moving to Winnipeg to spend the last of his careers as foreman at Motorways for over 30 years. He was a great father and provider and loved his family with a passion. He also loved the great outdoors, where he spent much of his pastime either fishing, hunting or traveling in the motor home with our mother by his side. Even though it saddens us that he is no longer here with us, we are happy to know that he is finally back where he belongs with the Lord and the love of his life Olga. The Funeral Service will be held at 1:00 p.m. at Cross Church, located at 1787 Logan Avenue on Friday, March 8, 2013, with Pastor Allan Duncalfe officiating, interment will follow at Brookside Cemetery, 3001 Notre Dame Avenue, and luncheon to follow at Cross Church.

Dear Dad this morning as I set out for my walk I was thinking of you and mom. This week mom will have left us five years and it is already three without you. They say time heals everything but I do not believe that is true for all things. I think when a heart losses a peace it stays broken. Yes it does heal but the pain is still there, just some days are better than others. Today is the type of day you and mom would have loved to go for a drive. The geese are back and you both would have loved hearing them in the fields. I know how much you enjoyed the simple pleasures like long drives and seeing the first signs of spring. It is days like today that remind me of you. Love baby Sandy xo - Posted by: Sandra (daughter) on: Apr 04, 2016

Dear Grandpa, It's been two years, the longest of my life that's for sure. I miss you like mad. It's so empty outside without you tinkering around. I miss running over to see you and get my kisses and snuggles. I miss cuddling up on your lap and thinking the world was going to be okay. I need my partner in crime. Lololol. Really I just need you to tell me that it's all going to be okay. I just want one more hug and kiss just once from you. Your grand boy Blake comes with me all the time to see you at yours and Nanny's resting place. I love you so much that my heart hurts Love your granddaughter Kerry Dimeychowmoo - Posted by: Kerry Fengler (Granddaughter) on: May 14, 2015

My Dearest Father, it is Father's Day today and my heart aches for you. I miss you so much and wish you were here so that we could all be together on your special day. This is now the 2nd Father's Day that you are not here with us but just know that you are thought of every day, not just on Father's day, and always missed. I miss you Daddy, today, tomorrow and always. - Posted by: Gerri Kuny (Daughter) on: Jun 15, 2014

Dear grandpa, I can't believe it has been a year. I miss you more and more everyday. Just hearing you being a busy boy outside. Tinkering away at something. Just hearing the same whistle over and over again. Oh how I wish I could hear that tune. You'll never know how much your loved and missed. I just miss snuggling in your arms when I am not feeling well and you saying I can't do much honey but hug and love your pain away. Grandpa your forever in my heart and talked about like your in our presence. Blake and Brooke will never forget who you were and how much you loved your family. I know grandpa in my heart you wanted to be with Nanny that's what gives my heart comfort. Thank you for everything you have instilled in me as a grandfather and what you passed into your great-grandchildren. But most if all thank you for loving me as one of your own . Love always your grand-daughter, Kerry Fengler Dimeychowmoo Grandpa - Posted by: Kerry Fengler (Granddaughter) on: Mar 23, 2014

A birthday without you, one of many we will have to go through. Today we did not get the chance to sit around and talk and enjoy your day with you. We all felt the loss without your warm hugs and laughing eyes. The only peace we have and feel is knowing mom has you in her arms once again. Daddy we all love you and will always miss you and mom. Love always Sandy xo - Posted by: Sandra Artimowich (daughter) on: Jun 02, 2013

Thinking of you tonight and wishing I could hear your voice again. I do not even have the words to tell you how much I miss our chats. One really never knows what they have until it is gone. That holds true for things in life as well as loved ones. We all miss you dad and always will. Our prayers are that you are not alone anymore but have mom by your side. That God grants you both every lasting peace. Love always Baby Sandy xo - Posted by: Sandra Artimowich (daughter) on: Apr 26, 2013

To my loving brother Peter.The legacy that you have left behind is totally undescribeable and brother Wally cannot put into words. Some people have a way of reaching out and touching the lives of others with warmth and caring and have a special gift for making others happy and you were one of those people The love and understanding that you expressed to your family and your brothers and sisters is totally unimaginable. I will always remember the wonderful family times we had together and fishing and hunting stories that we had done and shared together. I feel so blessed to have had a brother whose heart was as big as he was. Although we lived a long ways apart we were always close together the phone calls and the jokes we shared together will always be remembered. I love you with all my heart God bless you in every respect Love forever brother Wally - Posted by: Walter kuny (Brother) on: Apr 13, 2013

My dear dear Daddy. There are no words that can express my loss of not having you here. I miss you so very much. I try so very hard not to cry as I remember in the last week you saying honey don't cry for me. I wish I could just talk to you and tell you how very important you were to me and just what a special father you had been. There are days that I just wish I could pick up the phone and talk to you and to hear your laughter. Just knowing you were ready and at peace is enough for me but it is special knowing that you are once again with your precious wife, our Mother. I love you Daddy and will miss you forever. Kiss Mom for us. Love today, tomorrow and always forever Gerri - Posted by: Gerri (Daughter) on: Apr 12, 2013

Dear Dad, It is almost a month today and it feels like just yesterday we talked on the phone. Life is so different now, there is a big empty place in my heart. Dad the only comfort is knowing MOM is no longer alone. It was so hard to watch you miss her these past two years. Thank you for so many wonderful memories and teaching me the value of family. It is a very hard lesson and one I have to still work at. I will always miss you but know you hold a special place in my heart. Please kiss MOM for all of us. Love always Baby Sandy xo - Posted by: Sandra Artimowich nee (Kuny) (Daughter) on: Apr 02, 2013

I remember my wonderful Uncle Peter as a man who made time for me when I was growing up. He was gentle and kind and willing to listen to a little girl's numerous stories. He made me feel so special! I will always remember the ice cream cone treats he would so willingly buy us kids when he came to visit. He is safe back in the arms of Jesus and with Aunty again, and those he had loved that had gone on before him. To his family: Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all. He was a great man in so many ways and always held a special place in my heart. He will be greatly missed. I am so very sorry for your loss but I know that it is heaven's gain.

How do you say good-bye to a man that has always given his best to others. You're an Angel to me father. Dad you always found reasons to make someone feel a part of all the love and gentleness you carried in your heart. And like a special angel you did such caring things, that you deserve to have your very own angel wings! I will always miss our talks and that sparkle in your eye, but today you're with the Lord and I will have to learn to say Good-Bye. Love Baby Sandy xo - Posted by: Sandra Artimowich (nee) Kuny ( Daughter) on: Mar 08, 2013
