TADEUSH (TED) KRUL It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our husband, father and grandfather on Tuesday, August 16, 2005 at Arborg Hospital at the age of 68 years. Ted will be greatly missed by his wife Joyce of 45 years and their children, Lillian (Ken) Ashley and Rachel Boychuk, Andy (Barbara) Keith and Jocelyn Krul; Valerie, Mathew and Jason Webb; Alan (Maryann) Krul; Patsy (Shawn) Tad, Austin and April Decaire; and Tim Krul. He will also be missed by numerous family and friends. Ted was born in Ledwyn, MB, June 5, 1937, the only child of Alex and Annie Krul. He married Joyce on October 17, 1959 and they settled in the Ledwyn area. There he drove a school bus, farmed and did winter freighting for Sigvason's, he also was a bartender and did road construction. In 1972 the family moved to Lynn Lake, MB where Ted worked for Sheritt Gordon Mines until 1989 then went on to pursue his passion for building cabins and small engine repair and running a coffee shop. Ted and Joyce retired in 1997, moving back to the family farm in Ledwyn. Ted kept very busy during these years hunting, trapping, fixing and driving around the countryside checking crops. During the winter Ted spent countless hours on his caterpillar brushing down trees. Family and friends will miss Ted's sense of humour and his numerous stories and jokes. Pallbearers are Stefan Eyolfson, Mike Hawrysh, Andy and Ed Barylski, Kris Johnson and Phillip Hryhorchuk. Prayers will be held on Friday, August 19 at 8:00 p.m. at the Arborg MacKenzie Funeral Home.
