STEVE ZELONKO
Steve Zelonko passed away at his home December 23, 2022, at age 78 years.
He is survived by his loving wife Janice, of 57 years, his two daughters, April and Pamela, son-in-law Ken and five grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother-in-law Denis of Winnipeg and two sisters and two brothers in Ontario.
Besides his family, one of Steve's passions was country music, singing and playing his guitar. Steve was a loving husband and a great father and grandfather. Our lives forever changed the day you left us ... we will always love and remember you.
(My life will never be the same without you in it, "monkey"... love your "smooky" Janice.)

My Uncle Steve was a great guy, and a real entertainer. He loved people, and he loved to make them happy. I have many great memories of him playing guitar for us, and just generally being happy to be with us. Life is tough enough, and he proved that you can do it with a smile, no matter the circumstances. He was an inspiring mentor to me with the easy way he sang and played country songs. I passed that on to my kids, and I'm proud to have had such an amazing family member to show me the way. I will always love you Uncle Steve. - Posted by: Scarlett and (Brian) Bertelsen (niece (and nephew-in-law)) on: Jan 11, 2023

My condolences are offered to all the family. Although it is 4 years since we last saw each other, through the years we have maintained friendship and many memories going back to when I first met Steve after Janice and Steve's first date. I am so sorry for your loss and send hope that memories will give you comfort. Bonnie Shumka - Posted by: Bonnie Shumka (Friend) on: Jan 08, 2023
