Peacefully on Saturday, September 7, 2024, Randy William Harry Tyack passed away with his loving wife of 53 years, Linda and children, Candace and Christopher at his side.
Randy was born April 18, 1951, in Neepawa, MB to the late Fred and Rosie Tyack. He was educated in Neepawa then moved to Winnipeg for work. He worked for several companies then started his 37-year career with Sobeys Distribution Centre.
Randy really enjoyed the many years at the cottage with family and friends.

He spent many hours riding his bike both at the lake and at home.
He spent several years as a volunteer with Habitat for Humanity as part of a crew salvaging items that could be sold at the Restore. He developed many long-lasting friendships through this work.

I worked with Randy for many many years at Sobeys. We had many meaningful conversations and I would consider him a good mentor over the time we spent together. It’s unfortunate that we lost touch after he retired but I’m happy to hear he enjoyed his retirement years. RIP - Posted by: Cheynne Keith (Coworker ) on: Sep 11, 2024
