ALFRED JEAN-BAPTISTE HAYDEN August 29, 1919 - December 13, 2002 Peacefully and very suddenly surrounded by his loving family, our Dad went home to his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Dad was predeceased by his loving wife Eileen on November 22, 1985, and by his loving daughter Gladys on November 26, 2002. Left to mourn are his loving daughters, Roxanne (Jim), Cheri, Kim (Doug) sons, Dwight (Diane), Cam, Mark and Geordon; grandchildren, Cindy (Wayne), Denise, Sandy (Kelly), Marlee, Zac, Greg, Nicole, Jason, Sarge, Carrie, Shawn, Ryan, Tricia, Tracey, Michael, Toni and Wade; great-grandchildren, Tyler, Nikolas Rachel, Spencer, A.J., Evan, Meagan, Wade and Aerial. Dad also leaves his brother Jacko (Marie) and sister Lucy (Herb) and families; sister-in-law Edith Shawn; and many nieces and nephews. Dad was a man of extreme kindness, generous of heart, and unbelievable integrity. Dad had a very loving and gentle manner in life that carried him through to the end of his journey. Dad loved his home in Winnipeg Beach, where he became an active member in the community, making dear friends, and enjoying his bingo and card outings. Of course Dads greatest joy was having his home filled with his ever so large and noisy family. Many a warm summer day was enjoyed sitting on the deck talking, laughing and praising Dad on his wonderful tomatoes and beautiful flowers. A memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m., Tuesday, December 17 at Our Saviours Lutheran Church, 600 Minto St. Flowers gratefully declined. If family and friends wish, donations to the Childrens Wish Foundation, 350 St. Mary Ave., Winnipeg, MB R3C 3J2, would be greatly appreciated. Dad, our only wish for you was that you knew that we loved you with all of our hearts. It hurt our hearts to say goodbye. Sleep in peace. Give Mom and Glady a kiss. We will all be together again. We will love you forever. NEIL BARDAL INC. 949-2200
