Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemorySTEPHEN PAWLUK
It is with immeasurable sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Stephen Pawluk, too soon at the age of 63, on Friday, April 21, 2023.
Steve was born on January 8, 1960, to Michael and Olga Pawluk. He was an inquisitive child who kept everyone in the family on their toes and this became a defining trait. Steve had four passions in life; eating, sleeping, fishing, and golfing. He enjoyed each to the absolute fullest. Steve also never met a stranger and loved regaling everyone he met with tales to amaze and bemuse.
Steve began work at the Winnipeg Free Press in 1977 and remained there until a cancer diagnosis forced his early retirement in 2021.
He was predeceased by his father Michael. He will be forever missed by his mother Olga; siblings, Linda, Michael (Diane), and Jody (Curtis); nephew David (Karli); niece Jennifer; great-nieces, Hailey, Kaitey, and Miley; brother-in-law Richard; and best friend Ken Kalynchuk and family.
The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude and thanks to the staff at Riverview Health Centre for their endless patience, kind attention and gentle care in Steve's final days.
In accordance with Steve’s wishes a memorial will not be held. Instead, Steve’s family kindly requests that you visit his tribute page at EthicalDeathCare.com. A photo-biography as well as memories and stories published by those who knew him are available there.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to CancerCare Manitoba.
