Dear Betty and family, We were so sorry to hear of Ed's passing. Our deepest Sympathies go out to you at this sad time. We hope that your memories and your family will help to soothe the difficult days ahead. I have many memories working with the Macyk Family, and remember with fondness our time together. Ed had a wonderful smile and an even better laugh. I know it has been a long road and there had been much hardship these last few years, and take comfort that he is free of pain and at peace. Take this time now to reflect and look after each other as well as you looked after Ed. Much love Debbie Darrell Roskos and Family - Posted by: Debbie Roskos (Former Employee) on: Jan 15, 2020

Dear Betty, we were very saddened to read of Ed's passing. You and Ed drove us home many times over the past year from Cancer Care. We really enjoyed our trips with you both as we talked about world problems and life in general. May the wonderful memories of Ed help you and your family at this very difficult time. We send our sympathy. - Posted by: Pat and Bev Collins (Friends) on: Jan 06, 2020

Dear Macyk family extending my heartfelt sympathy on Ed's passing. I was very sorry to see that Ed passed away. Although I only spoke to Ed on occasion during his time as a volunteer driver for the Cancer Society, I was well aware of his dedication in getting cancer patients to treatment. Thinking of you all at this sad and difficult time. Lynda Ruban Canadian Cancer Society (retired) - Posted by: Lynda Ruban (Canadian Cancer Society (retired)) on: Jan 06, 2020

Dear Betty and Family. Susan and I were saddened to read of Ed's passing. Please accept our sincere sympathy at the loss of your husband, father, and grandfather. We encountered Ed briefly when I was at CancerCare Manitoba a couple years ago for radiation treatment and he was a volunteer driver escorting patients for treatment. Although we chatted I do not think he knew me, but he was as gracious as usual. - Posted by: Bob and Susan Malazdrewich (Friends) on: Jan 04, 2020
