Mayfair and District News Dusty roads, delightful entertainment

By Elaine Woloshyn Correspondent

Aren’t those grid and side roads dusty as one notices it more with these horrific winds? Engaged with seeding crops, farmers are also encountering dust problems but it seems that as years pass by, the winds are more prevalent. I take pity on someone riding a bicycle in the dust having the wind in their face and not at their back.

The nearby village of Medstead will probably have a jam-packed hall next Tuesday, May 16 as Canadian fiddle champion Scott Woods and his band will be putting on a crowdpleaser performance. The show is at 7 p.m. and tickets can be purchased at Medstead Hometown Grocery at 306-342- 4711; Boyd’s Garage at 306 3424610 locally or call with a credit card to Scott Woods Band at 1-855-726-8896. This group intertwines music with a splash of comedy. I have seen them and recommend the show as a great night out.

Maymont Dance Club held their recital this past Saturday in the school gymnasium. The students did a spectacular job showcasing their talents in jazz, ballet, hip-hop, lyrical and contemporary form to an appreciative crowd. Competitive dancers placed well in different dance festivals throughout this province in March. The colourful costumes were second to none. My 11-year-old granddaughter has danced for many years and thoroughly enjoys this form of art.

On May 3, I got to see students at Maymont Central School drama night. There were two excellent performances by the junior and senior groups.

This year the cast in the younger category are: Sarah Welford, Olivia Dzialo, Mya Shipman, Emery Beaudoin, Carey Bunko, Zack Jorgensen, Rebecca Miller, Mackenzie Welford, Lucas Lynda, Keri Sevick, Madison Welford and Adley Domak, with curtain privileges to Madison Lamothe. We in the audience also became the jury deciding if the big bad wolf played by Lucas was guilty or not by gobbling down Little Red Riding Hood played by Mya. This is a production named “Big Bad” written by Alec Strum and well acted by the above performers. This was a dessert theatre so in between the two plays we indulged in a variety of tempting goodies.

FORESTER: Forester, Heather Lynne - Heather’s family are sad to announce that she passed away at St. Paul’s Hospital, Saskatoon, on April 23, 2023. She suffered a broken hip before Christmas and had a number of worsening complications and started to leave us on the day of, what would have been, her beloved daughter Jennifer’s 50th birthday. She was 73 years old. Heather was predeceased by her daughter Jennifer in 1992, her husband Larry in 2018, and her brother Tom Colbourne in 2010. Left to cherish her memory are her sons Jason (Marilyn) and Martin (Carmen) along with grandchildren Alysha, Matthew, Darian, Addison, Amelia, LauraBeth, Jocelyn and a great-grandchild Jericho. She is survived by her sister Holly Celeste Colbourne. She was born in Halifax, NS on June 26, 1949 and lived in Edmonton and Vancouver with her family. She attended Notre Dame school in Wilcox, SK for a few years and then struck out on her own. She lived and worked various jobs in places including Winnipeg, Vancouver and Jasper. While waitressing in Jasper she met Larry Forester, who ordered liver and eggs with ketchup for breakfast and yet she still ended up marrying him in 1968. After living with Larry in Edmonton, Yellowknife and Jasper she then embarked on her career as a mom. As she had had a chaotic upbringing and came from a broken home, she vowed to make her kids and family as happy as possible and that is what she did. She had a son Jason, born in 1971 and a daughter Jennifer born in 1973. In 1975 she moved to North Battleford and spent the remainder of her life there, excepting one year in Calgary in the 1990s. In North Battleford she worked part-time at an auction house, a pizza place and later, full-time, at the lottery Kiosk in the CO-OP Mall where she was well known and well liked by her many regular customers. She volunteered at her children’s schools and helped her daughter with getting the S.P.C.A. running. She loved animals and always took in strays and she was especially fond of her many cats. She also took in stray kids of all kinds. Her home was a welcoming place for any of her children’s friends who were experiencing difficulties at home. She was also well read, and especially fond of poetry, and passed that love of reading on to her children who she would often read to. It was a treat for her kids to have her read to them on the long drives out to B.C. on summer holidays as they enjoyed the vacation treat bags that she would prepare with colouring books, games, toys and fruits. Family was important to her, and tragedy struck her family early on when her daughter Jennifer was killed by a drunk driver at the age of 19. This had a devastating effect on her life and would be a burden she would shoulder for the rest of her life. In later years she lost her husband after a long battle with cancer, and this too proved to be a difficult time. They had rarely been apart for over 50 years, and many were worried how she would fare after this, but she quit smoking the day of his funeral and lived a successful life on her own in her apartment, aided by her old friends and the new ones she made there. In her later years she battled cancer and kidney failure and although she feared she wouldn’t be able to handle it she always pulled through. She enjoyed going for coffee and tea and discovered the Internet on her tablet. She liked to watch such shows as Coronation Street, COPS and other reality TV shows and listening to music both old and new. Later in her life her family grew as she was reunited with a son that she had given up for adoption as a teenager. She had a great relationship with Martin Moore and his family and was especially happy that she got to visit with them several times. She also had a chance to visit her sister in Newfoundland a few years ago. It was a trip of a lifetime, and she was very happy that she got to connect with her sister Celeste and her roots. Heather will forever be remembered as a kind soul with a big heart. She will be forever missed by her family and friends. Anyone who would wish to make a donation in her name could donate to the Kidney Foundation, Canadian Cancer Society or their local animal shelter. “The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the greatest intention.” ~ Khalil Gibran Arrangements have been entrusted to Eternal Memories Funeral Service & Crematorium.

DISHKO: It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our Mom, Baba and Superbaba, Halia Virginia Dishko (née Kuny) on Friday, May 5th, 2023 at her home in Hafford. Mom was born on January 3rd, 1940 at her family home on the farm near Hafford. Mom was the second daughter to Elmer and Betty Kuny and the younger sister to Mary. Mom grew up on the farm and attended country schools in the area while helping with chores, gardening, and looking after the animals. She met a young fella from the Radisson area and on August 3rd, 1957 married our dad, George Dishko. They lived in the Radisson area at first and then moved to the Hafford area to continue farming and raising a family. Later as the family grew older, Mom found employment at the Hafford Union Hospital in the housekeeping department. She enjoyed many years working there and made many friends along with co-workers. Mom enjoyed gardening and was an awesome cook. She also enjoyed many visits with friends and neighbors playing kaiser, singing songs or just having a visit and a sip of her favorite beverage. Mom’s greatest joy was her family. As we grew up and grandchildren came along, both Baba and Gido couldn’t wait for a visit. They were always playing games outside or inside and had food and drinks for all who came over. They retired from farming and after a few years moved into Hafford and enjoyed helping and working in the community. Mom is predeceased by her parents, Elmer and Betty Kuny, her husband of 52 years George, and just lately her son Bill. Mom is survived by her sister Mary, daughter Pat (Sylvester), son John (Holly), daughter-in-law Carla, and son Ron (Joanne). She is also survived by 10 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren. We would like to send special thanks to Dr. Kambale & staff at Battlefords Union Hospital, for the care Mom received while she was there. Also, a Thank-You to Mervin and Mary Lesko along with Gary and Brenda Haverchuk and Jim and Jean Epe for all their love, care and help after Mom returned to her home in Hafford. Mom would not have been able to stay in her house for as long as she did if not for the excellent care she received from the Hafford Home Care Division. Thank you very much. We are having a traditional Prayer Service on Thursday, May 11, 2023 at 7:30PM with a Funeral Service on Friday, May 12th, 2023 at 10:00AM. Both held at the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Hafford, with lunch and refreshments at the Hafford Communiplex to follow. Because of Mom’s love and passion for her church community, please make any memorial donations to Holy Ghost Ukrainian Orthodox Church at Box 232 Hafford, SK, S0J 1A0. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Eternal Memories Funeral Service and CrematoriumElle Dell Funeral Director.

CZUY: CZUY, Daryl 1957 –2023 It is with profound sadness that the family of Daryl Czuy announces his passing at the Red Deer Hospital, on Wednesday May 3, 2023 at the age of 65 years. Daryl battled and overcame many major health issues over the past decade. By the power of prayer and his faithful attitude, he received many miracles in this time. We believe his final battle was God’s time of saying ‘you’ve fought long enough, and it is now time to rest and come home, my good and faithful servant.’ He passed away with the peace of his family surrounding him in love and acceptance. Daryl had an unwavering love for his family, and he will be devotedly remembered by his wife, Raylene, two children Tyson (Sarah) Czuy and their children Jaxon and Bentley, and Joelle (Adam) Slomp and their children Luca, Lauren and Liam. Daryl was a devoted son to his mother Elsie Czuy, brother to Brent Czuy and Chris Morrison (Rick), son-in-law to Helen Elefson, brother-inlaw to Ronald (Joy) Elefson and Michael (Sandra) Elefson and uncle to nine nieces and nephews. Daryl is predeceased by his infant daughter Allyson, his father Ralph Czuy and his father-in-law, Gordon Elefson. Daryl was born and raised in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, where as a teenager he met the love of his life, Raylene. They married at the age of twenty, and in 1980 and moved to Red Deer, Alberta. They built a beautiful life raising their children, growing and settling into life-long careers, and enjoying their circle of amazing friends. Daryl’s career was built firmly upon hard work, honesty and integrity. It was his dedicated and caring reputation that made him so very loved and appreciated by colleagues and clients alike. Daryl was undoubtedly a man of many outstanding qualities, but he will be most remembered for his generous heart, and his unwavering faith in Christ. His faith was a constant foundation for him, and God blessed him richly. His life and his death will leave a lasting impact on those who knew him, and he will be missed by so many. Even though a failing body took him away from this world, his loving heart left a beacon of light for everyone who knew him. We want to honor him, in a Celebration of Life, held at Crossroads Church, 38105, Range Rd. 275, Red Deer, Alberta on May 12, 2023 at 1:00 p.m. If you are unable to attend the service, please go to www. crossroadschurch.ca just prior to 1:00 p.m. The family would also like to extend their gratitude to the University of Alberta Lung Transplant Team for their amazing program and compassionate care. If desired, Memorial Donations can be made to the University Hospital Foundation / HOPE Foundation (Human Organ Procurement Exchange) or at givetouhf.ca (type in HOPE Program).

TRUELOVE: Delma Jean Truelove (Bennett) passed peacefully in her sleep at the Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon on May 1 at the age of 80. She is remembered with love by family and friends. She was raised in Lethbridge Alberta, then married her “true love”, Ed Truelove, in 1965 and moved to the Battlefords area. The two of them spent the next 58 years by each other’s side as best friends and sweethearts, first farming in the Richard area for 25 years and then settled in the Battlefords. She loved to garden, bake, travel, doing a wide range of hobbies and crafts, and spending generous amounts of time with family and friends, for whom her door was always open. She loved her kids and grandkids, always putting them first and her imagination for fun things to do with them worked non-stop. She loved making people laugh, was a great storyteller, and had a little helpful advice for every occasion. She seemed to know when people most needed her, and had a way of being in the right place at the right time. Her faith was a grounding factor in her life, the basis for who she was and for all that she did. She was predeceased by her parents, Art and Eva Bennett, and is survived by her husband Ed Truelove, her brother Mike Bennett and family, her 3 children, Deb Davis, Darren Truelove and Cheryl Truelove and their families, and her nine grandchildren, Kashif, Jen, Chiara and Tariq Ravasia, Payton, Lucas and Ethan Truelove, and Jasmine and Malia Poirier.
