Obituary for Mike Malowski

Michael “Mike” Malowski, aged 79 years, husband to Elizabeth Malowski passed away on Sunday, December 30, 2018 at the Brandon Regional Health Centre. Mike was born in Erickson, Manitoba and raised on the family farm in the Keld, Manitoba area. Growing up, Mike was educated at Lemberg School in Keld and then at Dauphin Collegiate. He moved away from the family farm as a teenager and was a messenger in Dauphin. Mike and Elizabeth were married on June 16, 1962. He began working at Pepsi and then worked for 33 years at Modern Dairies (Beatrice Foods) in Brandon. While employed as a milkman, he won numerous service and safe driving awards. In his semi-retired years he continued working at Wolfdale Industries along with various other employment. Mike was a meticulous and a highly organized man. Everything had to be in its place and his possessions were always clean and well looked after. Mike loved the music and culture of his Ukrainian heritage as well as camping and fishing. He lived for the weekends at the trailer and would spend many a morning on the boat or in the ice fishing hut. Spending time with family and friends was important to Mike; he took great joy in fulfilling his role as a grandparent. Mike was predeceased by his mother Nellie, father Peter, and brother John. Mike will be lovingly remembered by wife Elizabeth, daughter Donna (Paul) and their children Lee and Avery, son David (Theresa) and their daughter Claire husband Ryan, and son Dennis (Andrea). He will also be remembered by his great granddaughter Tilly, brother Steve Malowski, and sister Elsie Ezowske.
You have passed the test of life with flying colors dad - and we are all proud and very thankful for what you have provided for us as a father and husband. Farewell Dad, you did good, you did real good!!

When someone we love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure… When you lose some one you love, you gain an angel you know… Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us everyday, unseen, unheard, but always near and loved.
