JOHN K. ERICKSON April 28, 1932 - June 18, 2005 After a courageous battle with cancer, it is with deep sadness, we announce the passing of our father, grandfather and great-grandfather, John K. Erickson. Dad was born in Riverton, MB where he raised his family and worked construction. He was known far and wide for his expertise in repairing heavy equipment. Dad worked hard all his life and in his later years could be found out in his shop or scouring the province looking for heavy equipment in need of repair. Dad loved spending time with his family and his biggest joy in life was his grandchildren. John leaves to mourn his loss, his children, Gail (Doug), Colin (Rosemarie), Geraldine (Keith); grandchildren, Regan (Erica), Kyla (Ian), Chelsey (Jose), Lindsay, Brandon, Jean, Shayna, Nolan, Colin and Kohdy; great-grandchildren, Soren, Tyra, Taylor, Logan, Emma and Shaelynn; and special friend Deanna Monkman. His brothers and sisters, Oli, Helgi, Jolene, Margaret and best friends and sister, Louise and Steinni Erickson and their families and numerous friends and relatives. Dad's final wishes were, no funeral, no tears and he wanted his body donated to science in the hopes that he could help someone else.
