Obituary for Alex Ewaski

Alex  Ewaski
Alex Ewaski
1927 - 2016

Alex Ewaski passed away at the Estevan Regional Nursing Home, Estevan, SK on Monday, August 29, 2016 at the age of 88 years.

Alex was born on November 19, 1927 in the coal mining town of Taylorton, SK, the youngest of seven children of Mike and Annie Ewaski. Shortly after Alex was born, the family bought and moved onto a farm one mile north of Bienfait, SK. Alex worked very hard in the grain fields with his older siblings and attended school in Bienfait. He later worked at the mine, as well as helping on the family farm. In 1953 he married Madeline Ewaski, but had no children from this union. Later on he met the love of his life, Stella Miller and they lived together until her passing in 2000.

In his younger years he drove truck for awhile until he decided to open up a carpentry business. He was very fussy about his workmanship and you knew everything would be built strong. This was his occupation until he entered the Estevan Regional Nursing Home in April of 2014. He had also served as the local sheriff in Bienfait, belonged to the Bienfait Legion and in later years joined the Bienfait Lions Club.

Alex was predeceased by his parents, Mike and Annie; sisters, Mary and Anne and brothers, Morrell, Peter, John and Steve. He is survived by numerous nieces and nephews and their families.

Special thanks is extended to the staff of the Estevan Regional Nursing Home for the compassionate care given to Alex, as well as Dr. Omosigho for his care.

The Funeral Service was held on Thursday, September 1, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. in the Chapel of Hall Funeral Services, Estevan, with Sandy Dalziel officiating. Cremation followed, and interment took place at the Bienfait Cemetery.

Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Hall Funeral Services, Estevan.
