OBIT..... MAZIER

Nicholas Alexander Mazier passed away peacefully on April 19, 1999 at Brandon Regional Health Centre. Nick was born at Justice, MB December 8, 1926. He attended school at Justice and at the age of 16 he went to Hamilton, Ontario for the winter to work in a foundry to help with the war efforts. He then returned home to the farm with his father and eventually took over the entire operation. Nick continued to farm with his two sons until his death.
Nick was a member of the Union Masonic Lodge of Brookdale. In his younger years he enjoyed playing hockey and curling. His tenor singing voice gave him and those that heard him much pleasure. He was a faithful Wheat Kings fan and rarely missed "Hockey Night in Canada."
Nick is survived by his wife Jean (Kopochinski) of 43 years; daughter, Kathy (Pat) Beernaert, Stephen
and David of Deloraine; son, David (Kathy) Mazier, Abby and Conner of Justice; son, Dan (Leigh) Mazier, Hannah and Michael of Justice; sisters: Julia Borotsik of Brandon and Mazie (Lorne) Rose of Killarney; nieces: Lorna Rose and Linda Martinook; and nephews: Richard Borotsik, Bill and Ken Rose. Nick was predeceased by his parents, Peter and Cathleen Mazier; sister, Jean Penny and brother-in-law Joe; sister,
Mary Mazier; brother Michael who was killed in action (WWII); and brother-in-law, Martin Borotsik.
The Funeral Service was held at Memories Chapel on April 23, 1999 with Rev. Fr. Miron Pozniak officiating. Rev. Barb Jardine gave the eulogy and sang "One Day at a Time."
Interment was at the Brandon Cemetery. Pallbearers were Chy Habing, Jim Anderson, Richard Borotsik, Andrew Bieganski, Jeff Bieganski, and Brent Mills.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Nick's memory to the Brandon General Hospital Foundation, 150 McTavish Ave. East, Brandon, MB - R7A 2B3. Arrangements were with Memories Chapel & Pre-Planning Centre, 727-0330.
