Nesbitt Seeking
PC Nomination

Skiing at the Canada Games

reg Nesbitt of
Shoal Lake will
seek the Progressive
Conservative nomination in the provincial
constituency of Riding
Mountain.
Riding Mountain
MLA Leanne Rowat
announced in September that she would not
run again in the next
provincial
election,
which is scheduled for
April 16th, 2016.
Photo submitted
Nesbitt, 57, said he
has had a life-long interest in politics, fueled by following the careers of local MLAs through his 38 years
as a community newspaper publisher in the area.
I have the utmost respect for the work and commitment of current MLA Leanne Rowat and previous
MLAs Len Derkach, Glen Findlay, Harry Graham and
Wally McKenzie to the citizens of this area, said Nesbitt. I realize the job of an MLA is to listen to his or her
constituents and these five were among the best at understanding and looking for solutions to area issues.
On the fl
ip side, as publisher of Crossroads This
Week and the South Mountain Press, which cover an
area from Russell in the west to Erickson and Onanole
in the east, and from Kenton north to Riding Mountain
National Park, Nesbitt has also been privy to plenty of
candid conversations about what really matters to area
residents and the issues faced by communities within
the constituency.
I think my career has allowed me the unique
opportunity to hear what people in this constituency
are really thinking - what they feel is working well
and what needs improving, explained Nesbitt, who
is midway through a two-year term as chairman of
the board of the Canadian Community Newspapers
Association (CCNA), which represents over 840 community newspapers across the country.

Jodie Davis, born
and raised in Minnedosa,
has been chosen to go
to the 25th edition of the
Canada Games in Prince
George, British Columbia
which runs February 13th
to March 1st, 2015. Being
only 13 years old and having to get special permission to join the Manitoba
Ski team, she will be one of
the youngest competitors
in the ski competitions.
Davis started skiing
at the age of five when her
parents introduced her
to the Ski Valley hills. She
joined the Westman Ski
Club at the age of six. Davis
immediately became immersed in the ski world and
wanted to grow as a skier.
As Davis continued to
learn all she could as a skier, she hit some resistance,
once being told that she
would not amount to being
a professional and would
stay as a recreational skier.
At this time, she joined the
Manitoba team where her
coach, Bob Laurie, worked
side by side to hone her
skills and Davis is now one
of the best young skiers.

ommunity
support
for the Rivers Edge
Recreation Park has continued through the winter

months, which is generating much anticipation for

the next phase of the park.
Th e Rotary Club of
Minnedosa recently donated $4,000 bringing
their total contributions
to over $10,000 for development of the picnic area,
and sponsorship of three
benches and one picnic
table.
The Little River Game
and Fish Association has
donated $1,250 toward the
sponsorship of a recycle

station and bicycle lock.

Initial construction of
the walking trail, picnic
area and bike park was
completed in the fall of
2014, and a grand opening for the bike park was

held in September 2014.

The grand opening for the
walking trail and picnic

Business Owner Fined Following 14-Month Investigation

By ASHLEY HANKS

un Shao Lin, 38, plead

guilty to three counts
under Section 30.1 under the Wildlife Act, three
counts under Section 12A
under the Wildlife Regulations and one count under
the Fishery Regulations
which in turn earned him a
$7,000.00 fine and one-year
hunting prohibition.
In Minnedosa Court on
December 23rd, 2014, the
Crown Attorney claimed
Lin had been trying to solicit customers of Sun Sun
Restaurant for black bear
parts including the head,
paws and gallbladders,
which he was claiming to
use to make soup.

Lins Defense Lawyer,

Norman Sims, explained
to the court that his client wasnt trying to re-sell
or serve the bear meat to
customers, but he had obtained them to use for his
mothers medication.
A confi
dential tip in
February 2013 by a customer, reported an unusual
request, which sparked an
undercover sting operation
dubbed, Operation Sunscreen by the Manitoba
Conservation Unit.
The operation spanned
over 14 months, with an
investigator who would
frequent the Sun Sun Restaurant and have conversations with Lin about black
bear parts.

In the end, the conservation officer sold bear

gallbladders to the Sun
Sun owner as part of the
investigation. In reimbursement for these gallbladders, Lin offered free
meals and gas money.
A search warrant was
carried out in June 2014,
which produced two gallbladders, one of which
was dried, while the other
one was fresh and also
the hindquarter of a bear.
When investigators were
on-scene, Lins wife was
also witnessed throwing
one gallbladder out the
window.
Federal legislation
indicates that it is illegal
to buy, sell or trade North

American black bear

gallbladder or wild animal parts.
Lin and his wife immigrated to Canada in 1997
and earned citizenship in
2001. At that time, the immigration process did not
require individuals to be familiarized with the Wildlife
Act or Wildlife Regulations.
Most immigrants
have a low understanding
of our laws, said Wendy
Peterson, representative
from the Canadian Immigration office in Brandon.
In 2001 when Lin became
a citizen, there were no
regulations on a persons
understanding of the English language or our laws,
which has since changed

and now when you apply to

be a citizen you must have
a Level four English understanding and you will be
tested to confirm this.
When earning citizenship, applicants are tested
on a study guide provided
from the Government of
Canada.
In regards to Canadian laws and regulations of
wild animals, there is little
information provided within this study guide. Many
countries diff er in what is
acceptable use of animal
products and this may be
an area that needs clarification throughout the immigration process.
We dont wish to be
overbearing in further per-

secuting individuals who

have paid their fines. Our
intention is enforcing and
investigating to protect the
resources, said Jack Harrigan of Manitoba Wildlife
Conservation.
According to Harrigan,
they do see these types of
investigations, but there are
a small number of prosecutions each year. Most of the
past investigations have
been in regards to the overseas market sales of wildlife
parts.
We hope things turn
around for them (Lin) and
that they have learned their
lesson and the community
is forgiving to them, said
Harrigan.

Manitobas
Bracket Creep

New Tax Would Mean Less Work, Lower Pay

By ELLIOT SIMS
Manitoba Director,
Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB)

View from the

Legislature

or years both small and large businesses have

voiced concerns about tax policies making Manitoba an uncompetitive place for entrepreneurs. Instead of listening, the provincial government continues to call for increased pension payroll taxes instead
of supporting the individual efforts of Manitobans to
save more. The latest promise by a government MLA to
create a new tax for a provincial pension plan is by far
the worst idea yet proposed.
The Manitoba pension plan proposal is based on
a similar, mandatory program in Ontario which is intended to supplement the Canada Pension Plan (CPP).
If implemented here, the plan would cost working
Manitobans up to $1,643 each year, and small business
owners would be saddled with the same per employee
cost. When the plan is fully funded, approximately 40
years from now, workers are promised an annual payout equal to 15% of their income in their retirement.
The impacts of this payroll tax plan would be staggering. Mandatory employer contributions for the new
provincial plan would be tacked onto premiums they
already pay for CPP, increasing total pension costs by
a whopping 40 per cent. To put that in perspective, an
employer with 10 employees and an annual payroll
of $500,000 would see their tax bill jump by nearly
$10,000 per year.
Small businesses are forced to make diffi cult decisions when faced with major labour cost increases
such as this. According to a recent Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) survey, 65 per
cent of Ontario small business owners said they would

oor policy implementation by this NDP government

is expected to see Manitobans without children paying more in taxes. Manitoba remains one of only three
Canadian provinces that deal with bracket creep.
Bracket creep is a poor government policy that
does not adjust our three tax brackets to compensate
for infl ation. Instead, our tax brackets have remained
at $31,000 and $67,000 since 2009 causing Manitobans
with incomes adjusting for inflation to easily graduate
tax brackets.
According to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, a
single income earner making $60,000 will pay $54 more
in taxes next year. Whereas, a single income family making the same amount will save $1,434 in taxes. This tax
savings comes from the federal governments Family
Tax Cut, not from this provincial government.
Despite the bracket creep issue being reported on
annually by Manitoba media outlets since 2011, the
current NDP government has not taken steps towards
implementing any sort of adjustment.
It is unacceptable that a huge portion of Manitobans will be missing an opportunity to capitalize on tax
savings because of poor government policy in failing to
implement a bracket creep adjustment.

have to freeze or cut salaries if a mandatory provincial

pension payroll tax were introduced. Another 42 per
cent said they would have to reduce the number of employees in their business. There is no reason to believe
it would be any different in Manitoba.
These labour costs add up and could cause major economic pain. Using the University of Torontos
economic models, CFIB estimates Manitoba could
lose 10,000 person years of employment by 2023 due
to a new provincial payroll tax. The model also shows
a downward shift in wages and increased unemployment as businesses struggle to adjust to higher labour
costs.
With impacts like this, its no wonder small businesses view payroll taxes as the most burdensome type
of taxation. Provincial governments who understand
the realities of running a small business are moving
forward with a better option: Pooled Registered Pension Plans (PRPPs). The majority of entrepreneurs say
the main reason they do not have any form of company retirement plan for their employees or themselves
are the high fees and administrative burdens. Pooling
pension investments makes it far easier for small businesses to provide employees comparable pensions to
those in larger businesses.
Encouraging employees and entrepreneurs to
save more for retirement is a commendable goal for
government, but it has to be done in a way that doesnt
lead to less work and lower pay for Manitobans. Unfortunately a payroll tax-funded pension plan championed by provincial government MLAs fails on both
counts.
CFIB is Canadas largest association of small and
medium-sized businesses with 109,000 members (4,800
members in Manitoba) across every sector and region.

Dear Editor,

Dear Editor,

big bouquet to the Town of Minnedosa for the

new Christmas lights on Main Street. They are a
wonderful addition. We understand the Chamber of
Commerce and Town of Minnedosa plan to replace
the remainder of Main Street with new Christmas
lights in the future. We appreciate your efforts.

he last thing I expect when entering a store is seeing a

dog running towards me, twice, in Neepawa. Whats up
with that? You get a sitter for your kids but take an animal to
work? Each time I asked the sales person/owner to take the
dog away I got a dirty look. I find it rude, disregard for the customer and very unprofessional. A friend told me there is a dog
in the store in Rapid City too. I for one do not appreciate it.

A Very Grateful Minnedosan

Dear Editor,

oday I learned that one of our GPs, Dr. Amy Frykoda is suspending her practice with the Minnedosa
Medical Group until at least next August. She has had to
take on extra responsibilities with her position in Brandon, and she regretfully informed me that she cant be
my doctor until at least August.
Dr. Frykoda is one of the fi nest GPs I have ever had
the privilege of being cared for by. Only one other doctor from my life experience measures up to her quality
of care, my doctor from when I was a teenager, as well
as when I was a young woman. Dr. Janet Marsch of Edmonton, AB was another one of those irreplaceable physicians. Both of these women made a profound impact
on my life.
When I fi
rst met Dr. Frykoda, I was slightly depressed,

at least eight sizes larger and struggled daily with bipolar disorder. Now, a slightly smaller self awakens to joy,
health and happiness, enjoying my return to the workforce after being too unwell to do so for over 20 years.
Mental illness is a tricky business, yet the doctor, my
mental health worker, Maxine Gray and I made a great
team, navigating its treacherous waters. Maxine and I
devised a Wellness Plan, and Dr. Frykoda supervised its
implementation. Maxine is another amazing woman, I
recommend that anyone who would benefit from some
counselling contact her at the Minnedosa Health Centre.
Thank you for being part of my life, dearest doctor.
You have helped me to begin life anew and for that I will
be forever grateful.

Sally Pulford,
Minnedosa, MB

No Room for Undemocratic and

Science-hating Government
Dear Editor,

m writing regarding Richard Yates Letter to the Editor, Sopuck

and Harper get a Lump
of Coal, in your January
9th edition. Mr Yates certainly hit the nail on the
head with his comments

regarding the present Federal Government. I agree

that there is no room in
our country for a government that is undemocratic and science-hating
as Mr.Harper has demonstrated to be.
For me, it is especially
upsetting that he has de-

stroyed our reputation in

the world community as
a fair minded mediator.
Mr Harper, through Mr.
Sopuck, must feel that he
is on shaky ground with
his policies judging by the
unprecedented barrage of
paper and letters we get in
the mail and newspapers

telling us what a good job

his government has been
doing. One tires of so
much propaganda.
Sincerely,

Gord Hammell,

RODEO IS LIFE
Lacey said that one
thing as sisters they promised each other was not to
quit rodeo - a foundation
built on family and friends!
My dad built his farm
by himself, and built it into
what it is, and we promised
were not going to let it go.
Her older sister, KellyJo, stands behind that decision. I am very proud

perspective it was just that.
His life also focused
around livestock inspecting, PFRA pasture riding,

LIKE A COWBOY
With rodeo being a
cornerstone of Terrys life,
when Rapid City held its
fi rst rodeo in 1997, it was
dedicated to Terrys son
Dane, who died as a result
of a tragic farming accident
at the age of three in 1990.
Th e impact of our
fathers death is evident,
Lacey said. Like a cowboy
we will share stories, fond
memories and cherish the

of a man, strong on talent,
and dedicated to the wonderful sport of rodeo.

colleagues will come together to celebrate the life
of Terry Marshall on Saturday, January 24th, 2:00

saving a cowboys life in a
split second, it was not to
be to save the precious life
of a man, whose source of
happiness included his
horse Tardy, warm sunshine, and the sweet smell
of a broncs uneasiness.
A legend known as Terry Marshall will forever live
on, as his winning cowboy
smile sums up the miles of
love, passion, and dedication to not only the sport,
but perhaps more heartwarming, to his family.
When a loved one

with readers for almost 40

years, commented Nesbitt. I want to do my part
to ensure this area continues to thrive. We have a
very high quality of life and
good things cost money,
so we need to focus on
economic development,
exploring new revenue opportunities and creating
good jobs for our young
families. It needs to be a
focus for our area and the
province as a whole.
The Riding Mountain
constituency, created in
a boundary review prior
to the 2011 provincial
election, runs from the
Saskatchewan border to
Minnedosa, and from the
boundary of Riding Mountain National Park south
into the Oak River, Rivers
and Rapid City areas.
Its a huge constituency, but I know a lot of
people in the communi-

ties and I will definitely be

working hard to earn their
support in my bid to be
the Progressive Conservative candidate for Riding
Mountain, said Nesbitt.
I certainly appreciate the
encouragement I have received from a number of
people across the constituency in the last few weeks.
Nesbitt moved to
Shoal Lake in 1968 with
his parents Joe and Shirley Nesbitt and siblings
Darrell (Cindy), Joanne
(Gary Findlay) and Laurie
(Christa). After graduating from the Shoal Lake
Collegiate in 1975, he purchased the Shoal Lake Star
in 1977. He purchased the
Rossburn Review, Birtle
Eye-Witness and Hamiota Echo and eventually
merged them into Crossroads This Week in 2002.
Th e business further expanded with the purchase

of the South Mountain

Press in 2006 with the help
of his brother Darrell, and
his son, Ryan (Jill). Nesbitt
also has a grown daughter, Kayla, who lives in Red
Deer, AB.
Nesbitt is a partner in
the Russell Inn Hotel and
Conference Centre and
Asessippi Ski Area and Resort near Inglis.
Besides his business
interests and work at the
national and provincial
newspaper levels, Nesbitt
served a term on the council of the Village of Shoal
Lake, served on the Shoal
Lake Fire Department,
coached, managed and
offi ciated hockey at the
minor and senior levels,
coached fastball and has

been the statistician for

the North Central Hockey
League for nearly 40 years.
He currently serves as secretary of the Shoal Lake
Regional Airport Authority.
Im looking forward
to meeting old friends and
making new acquaintances in communities across
the constituency over the
next few months, said
Nesbitt. I will encourage
them to get involved in the
nomination process and
make their voices heard in
selecting the next Progressive Conservative candidate for this constituency.
No date has been set

Cottage Association Disperses Funds

By AHSLEY HANKS

he Minnedosa Cottage Association has

decided to disband due to
non-activity over the last
few years.
The last general meeting held was in 2008, where
the executive of the board
decided to step down. As a
collective group, it was decided to leave the position
open in hopes that someone would step-up but
there seemed to be little
interest. After five years, a
general meeting was held
this past fall, where it was
decided that it was time to
let the group go.
The Association acted
as a liaison between the
Town of Minnedosa and
the cottage owners, dealing
with the different concerns
that arise. The Association
also organized a neighbourhood watch which essentially had neighbours
helping neighbours when
some were not able to attend to their cottages.

There was little that

could be done to keep the
group together without
an executive but Im glad
that I got to be a part of
such a great group of people, commented Brenda
Berg, previous member
of the Association. The
social body of the group
is and will continue to be
active in the community,
attending and participating in local functions.
Since the Association
has continued collecting
cottage fees and currently
possesses a bank account
amounting to $3,000, the
Association has decided
to donate the remaining funds to a good cause
within the community.
Different ideas had
been discussed between
the group, with some of
them being a new play
structure in front of the
cottages. However, that
was found to be too expensive. There was also
talk about donating the
money to the Town, but

there is no way to know

where that money would
be allocated and in the
end it was decided the
funds would be split between the Kinette Clubs
of Minnedosa and Brandon.
Jennifer
Bartkewich, President of
the Minnedosa Kinettes,
stated that the $1,500 will
go towards repairing the
playground located in the
southwest corner of town.
We realized the
playground was started
as a Kin playground and
has not been kept up over
the last few years, stated
Bartkewich, As moms
with young children, we
want a place for our kids
to play.
There is still ongoing
fundraising for this project as this is just one of the
projects that the Kinettes
are looking into. Their
hopes are to have the playground or a new structure
within a year or two.

goal to bring them within
one of the visitors. A three

game ended in a 6-3 loss
for the home team. Colin

Commit to Quit During Non-Smoking Week

SUBMITTED

ts Your Choice! That is

the mantra for the 2015
version of the Manitoba
Lung Associations quit
smoking contest. This year
the contest has added new
categories and cash prizes
from $150.00 to $1,000.00
for people who want to take
a step toward becoming
smoke-free for one to four
weeks.
The contest will support Manitobans who
smoke to make a choice to
reduce by half, make their

home and car smoke-free,

or quit smoking for a week
or a month.
We at Manitoba Lung
Association know it can
take many tries before a
person can quit smoking
for good, says Tracy Fehr,
Co-ordinator of ManitobaQuits. Fehr has seen
many successes among
contestants whose numbers have now exceeded
the 6,000 mark. We have
had three generations of
family members join up to
make the four week quit
attempt it is like a ripple

eff ect when one person is

successful, others want to
join in.
Arleigh
Firby
of
Minnedosa had been a
smoker for 40 years until
she joined the contest last
March. After struggling
with health issues, Arleigh
finally came to the conclusion, with the support of
her husband and doctor
that she had to give quitting
a try.
I am done. I am a nonsmoker for the rest of my
life and I simply love my life
now. Freedom is my new

word to describe my feelings about quitting smoking. I am totally free and I

love it! she says.
We know that quitting is possible even when
a person has tried before.
Our message is dont give
up but take one of these
options, Fehr concludes.
A journey of 1,000 miles
begins with a single step
take one.
Contest Registration is
now open and Smoke Free
Challenges begin March
1st. For more information,

OBITUARIES
CONSTANCE CONNIE BERNICE ALEXANDER

ADAM USICK

MARCH 6TH, 1921

JANUARY 11TH, 2015

APRIL 16TH, 1923

JANUARY 13TH, 2015
Adam Usick passed away at the Minnedosa Care Home at the
age of 91. Adam is survived by his wife Florence, his children
Debbie (Bill Andruniak), Donna (Brock Alexander), Brenda (Ron
Belisle) and Brent and his wife Mishell. He will be missed by his
grandchildren, Sean and Colin Andruniak, Samantha Bourdeau,
Ryan Alexander, Chantale, Colette, and Joel Belisle, and Sydney
and Dalton Usick. He is also survived by great grandchildren Mia,
Gunnar, Colin, Maya, Bridget, Zachary and Cara Melanie, his brother
Lawrence Usick and sister Eleanor Mosher as well as numerous nieces,
nephews and cousins.
He was predeceased by his twin brother Steve Usick.
Adam was born on the family farm north of Basswood to Mike Usick and Helen Lewandowski.
His dad died when Adam and Steve were just 16, so he farmed with his brothers, and cousin
Frank for many years. He married Florence Bachewich on October 18th, 1947 when he was 24,
and they raised their family on the farm.
Adam was always very politically active and was a councillor for the R.M. of Harrison from 1963
to 1966 and Reeve from 1970-1977. Adam was also active in the Conservative party.
In 1976, Adam and Florence left the family farm and built and opened Leisure Inn Hotel
in Newdale, which they ran until 1996. At that time, they moved to Minnedosa, and Adam
continued his daily treks to the farm to check the crops, mow the grass, work on his many
projects and inventions, and check his trap line in the winter. Adam loved the peace and
tranquility of the farm. Adam was also very proud of his family, and made many trips to Calgary,
Winnipeg, Manitouwadge and Fort McMurray to help out and spend time with his children and
grandchildren.
The funeral service was at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, January 20th at the Minnedosa Funeral Chapel,
with a luncheon following at the Ukrainian Hall. Interment was at 2:30 p.m. at the St. Peter and
Paul Cemetery in Newdale. Pallbearers were Brock Alexander, Ron Belisle, Bill Andruniak, Wes
Usick, Morley Usick and Lyle Usick.
The family is grateful to the staff of the Minnedosa Personal Care Home and Dr. Onyshko for
the care Adam received. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the Sandy Lake
Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Museum, Cancer Care Manitoba or a charity of your choosing.

LEONARD ALAN WARK

DECEMBER 13TH, 1950
- JANUARY 6TH, 2015
Leonard passed away suddenly at home. He was the son
of Vernon and Eva Wark of the R.M. of Odanah and attended
Hazelwood School and Minnedosa Collegiate. Leonard took
wedding photos for ten years while working for Edson Industries
building travel trailers in Neepawa and Rivers and also farming with
his family and cousin Keith Wark. While in Neepawa, Leonard met
Cathy Sangster and they were married in 1975 and began farming full
time near Franklin. They raised three children, Heather (Ben) Melnick,
Andrew (Melanie) Wark and Jonathan. His family was very important to
him and he loved the times they were all together.
Leonard loved country life and farming. In the early years, he did custom grain hauling and
crop spraying and was a Certified Seed Grower for 30 years. They were also involved in the
International Agricultural Exchange Association hosting 14 trainees from different countries.
Over the years Leonard and Cathy visited them and he enjoyed touring their farms. He was a
Manitoba Pool Elevator delegate for many years and was proud to say he farmed for almost
50 years. In the winter they enjoyed golfing and hiking in Arizona. Leonard enjoyed the
camaraderie of the Tuesday morning mens golf and the conversation at the Wednesday
morning breakfasts with local farmers. He was always interested in talking to people.
Leonard is survived by his wife and three children; sister Yvonne (Blaine Millard) and her
children Kelsey and Donovan; mother-in-law Lillian Sangster; sister-in- law Lee and Bill Jardine
and brother-in-law Don (Elaine) Sangster and their families; cousin Marlene (Larry) Pollon and
their family, and many nieces, nephews, cousins and good friends.
Leonards funeral was held on January 10 in the Minnedosa United Church with Rev. Natasha
Pearen officiating. Interment was in the Minnedosa Cemetery. Minnedosa Funeral Service was
in care of arrangements. Donations may be made to Minnedosa District Foundation, Box 1980,

GEORGE CLACK
SEPTEMBER 13TH, 1944
DECEMBER 22ND, 2014
George Clack passed away after a very short time in Minnedosa Hospital.
George was born in Minnedosa Hospital and lived on a farm North of Rapid City. He was
the oldest of seven children born to Lawrence Laurie and Ethel Clack Haslen and took his
schooling in McBribe School.
Laurie and Ethel moved to Minnedosa in 1964 with four boys; George, Aubrey, Cyril and Leslie.
George had eye problems most of his life, so was unable to work.
One of his passions was the Minnedosa Bombers Hockey team.
As his eye sight failed, he relied on the radio and then in 2009 he had Cataract Surgery which
brought back his sight, so now the T.V. played an important part in his life. Now he could watch all
the sport he wanted too. The radio was then for Swap & Shop and country music.
George was predeceased by his parents Laurie in 1971, Ethel in 2008, three brothers, Roy at
birth, Leslie in 1986, Cyril in 1996 and a brother-in-law Pete Smith in 1996. He is survived by
his two brothers Melvyn (Doris) of Vimy, AB, Aubrey of Minnedosa, his sister Marjory (Barry)
Mikkelsen of Neepawa. Also several nieces and nephews, one aunt and lots of cousins.
There will be a family grave side service at a later date.
Thanks George for being our brother. It was a privilege to have you as our brother.

Constance Connie Bernice Alexander of Minnedosa, Manitoba

passed away at the Minnedosa Personal Care Home at the age of
93 years.
Connie was born in the R.M. of Daly, MB to Arthur
and Violet Carter. She lived on the family farm with her
parents and six brothers. She received her first eight years of
education at a little one room school called Education Point.
The next two years she took by correspondence and finally
talked her father into letting her finish high school in Brandon,
MB. Once Connie finished high school she attended normal school for one
year and became a teacher. Her first teaching position was south of Minnedosa
at a country school called Willow Grove.
She met and married Calvin Moad of Clanwilliam. Unfortunately, not long after they were
married Calvin passed away in a car accident. Mom then moved to Minnedosa and worked for
Dr. Stevenson as his receptionist/assistant. Connie then met and married a Minnedosa man
John (Jack) Alexander on April 7, 1950. Jack and Connie raised two children, Shelley and Brock.
The early 1960s Connie returned to teaching for the Rolling River School Division and taught for
the next twenty two years first at the South School, then the North School in the huts, and finally
at Tanners Crossing School. Once Connie retired from teaching her artistic talent emerged. She
took up painting in oil, acrylic and water colour as well as paper tole.
Connie loved nothing better than her precious grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She
never turned down a chance to be with them or attending their activities, graduations and
weddings. In her later years she looked forward to the grandchildren and great-grandchildrens
visits.
Mom was generous to a fault and often helped her children and grandchildren in any way she
was able.
Connie volunteered her time with the United Church Ladies Auxiliary and the Legion Ladies
donating time, food, help in preparing fall suppers, funeral lunches, and Saturday night suppers
at the Legion.
Connie was predeceased by her husband Jack on August 14, 1991, her parents Arthur and
Violet Carter, her brothers Robert (Bob), Glen, Rodney, Harvey, Allen and a baby brother John
Cameron in infancy.
Surviving are daughter Shelley (Robert) Lepischak and son Brock (Donna) Alexander,
grandchildren Michelle Lepischak, Courtney (Steven) Baudry, Samantha (Mark) Bourdeau,
Ryan (Candis) Alexander and great-grandchildren Chloe Baudry, Maya and Bridget Bourdeau
and Zachary Alexander.
A funeral to celebrate Connies life was held Monday, January 19, 2015 at the Minnedosa United
Church with Rev. Natasha Pearen and Elgin Hall officiating.
Interment took place in the Minnedosa Cemetery. Pallbearers were Brent Alexander, David
Alexander, Allan Clark, Bill Andruniak, Bill McVey and Darcy James. Everyone in attendance was
considered honorary pallbearers.
Donations in memory of Connie may be made to the Minnedosa United Church or the
Minnedosa Community Foundation.
Minnedosa Funeral Service in care of arrangements.
Rest in peace Mom, we love you.
