Obituary

KAMULA: It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father and grandfather. Nicholas (Nick) passed away peacefully with his family by his side on April 30, 2015 at Riverdale Health Centre. He was predeceased by his parents Kyrlo and Justina, older brother Steve, first wife Ethel (Rollo) and daughter-in-law Sherry Kamula. He will be sadly missed by his wife of 42 years, Shirley, sons Bill (Jean), Bob (Pam), and Don; grandchildren Jamie (Dan), Petra, Roxanne (Sean), Nicholas, Michelle (Tom); great-grandsons Declan and Archer, as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Nick was born in Pajowka, Poland on October 8, 1922. He came to Canada with his parents and older brother in May 1925. He answered the call of his new country and served with the Brockville Rifles which were stationed in the Caribbean during the Second World War. Upon his return to Rivers, Nick worked for the CN for forty years, retiring in 1981. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch #75, of which he was a member for 65 years, became the main vehicle of his community service for the remainder of his life. Family was the most important constant in Nick's life! A celebration of Nick's life was held on May 5, 2015 at Rivers United Church with Rev. Glenna Beauchamp officiating. Dianne Kowalchuk was organist and Stan Runions was soloist. The eulogy was given by eldest son Bill, son Bob was Urn Bearer and nephew Brayden Johnston was Medal Bearer. A Legion Service and Honour Guard was performed by Branch #75. Memories Chapel was in charge of arrangements. If friends so desire, donations in memory of Nick may be made to: Riverdale Community Centre, Box 365, Rivers, MB, R0K 1X0 or Rivers Train Station Restoration Project, Rivers, MB, R0K 1X0.
