HARRY JOHN PAGUT Suddenly, on Sunday April 11, 2004 at his residence Harry J. Pagut of Winnipeg, MB, aged 50 years. He leaves to mourn his passing and cherish his memory his mother Katherine Pagut of Winnipeg and his many friends. He was predeceased by a brother Michael in October 1961. Harry was born in Winnipeg, July 26, 1953. After high school he continued his education at the University of Manitoba where he received a degree in Electrical Engineering. He started working for the City of Winnipeg Public Works Department. He later moved up to Winnipeg Hydro, now known as Manitoba Hydro where he was employed 25 years until his passing. Harry had a love for exotic fish and it was nothing for him to import them from around the world for one of his eight aquariums that he kept at home or to trade them with other fish enthusiasts. He was a Ukrainian dancer from his youth and at the age of 25 he represented Canada in the Ukraine to bring home a gold medal making his mother proud. Harry took pride in understanding computers and would be glad to help you with yours if you just asked. He often filled his new van with his close friends, cranked the volume of his country music on his pioneer stereo and drove to his many stops at his favourite buffets all over Winnipeg. Harry was a quiet gentle spirit, kind to everyone, even the least of them. He displayed a love for his mother which was evident in his daily phone calls to her. Mama K. is really going to miss you, until we meet again... Mama K. and your friends. A funeral service will be held on Tuesday, April 27 at 1:30 p.m. in Springs Church, 595 Lagimodiere Blvd., with Pastor Jacquie Fontaine officiating. Viewing will begin at 1:00 p.m. Interment to follow at Brookside Cemetery Winnipeg. Rock Fontaine Funeral Director Winnipeg, in care of arrangements. (204)223-2576.
