Andy was born and educated in Winnipeg and lived his entire life in the Elmwood /East Kildonan area. Andy retired from the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1985 after a very enjoyable 40 year career. Dad was very sociable and enjoyed spending time with family and friends. His favourite pastime was playing bingo at Club Regent where he met and made many friends. Dad loved his weekends at the lake. Some of our fondest memories at the cabin were watching Dad put on his captain’s hat and taking us kids’ water skiing and tubing and in the evenings, we always enjoyed playing cards and rummoli to the wee hours of the morning. Dad also enjoyed making his delicious homemade chicken soup, and for dessert, you could always find an apple or lemon pie in his fridge. We miss you so much Dad and always will. The family would like to thank the nurses and doctors at the Concordia Hospital for the wonderful care given to Dad. A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, May 15 at 11:00 a.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main Street. A Private Interment for immediate family to follow at Glen Lawn Memorial Gardens, 455 Lagimodiere Boulevard.
