And now on with my long overdue journey up to the Mansion in the Sky where I know that my Kim (with a smile on his face) will be waiting for me, to take my hand at the gates of Heaven and guide me through. The chain is now broken but will re-link again. Predeceased by my darling Kim on Jmy older brother David in 1946 father-in-law Ame in 1978 sister- in-law Vicki in 2000 grandpa and grandma Stachniak and grandpa and grandma Ritzand. I am survived by my three children, Lisa, Bobbi-Dawn (Chris) Epp and Garry (Miranda) Gariepy my seven grandchildren, Danelle Gariepy, Taylor, Michael, Jayd, and Kimberly Gariepy-Epp, and Kameron and Willow Gariepy my parents John and Anne Kawhuck sister Darlene (Maurice) Balon brother Joe (Pearl) Ritzand as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and uncles. I have told everyone that I truly believe that I am dying a slow death. And again no one seems to know what is wrong with me. I was home for five weeks and was rushed in again for another two weeks and discharged again. In the seven weeks that I was in the hospital I believed I was on my way to see my Kim, but after seven weeks they sent me home. On February 27, 2010, I got very sick and my children rushed me into the hospital and there I had the best of every kind of Specialist looking after me, but no one could seem to tell me what was wrong. After my children grew older, I went on to become an employee of the City of Saskatoon in January 1987 and was in various departments with my last position in the Land Branch until my death. I truly believe I have never gotten over his death, he was my lover, best friend, and soul mate, not to mention a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. We had been married for 31 years but we had been together for 33 years when he passed away at age 49. I met my darling Kim in April of 1972 and soon after we started our family and then went on to get married on June 7, 1974. I was born and raised in Saskatoon on Decemto Tony and Anne Ritzand. In my mind I believe it is very important to get all the dates and names correct. I sit here today and compose my own obituary, something I would never dream of giving my children the burden of doing.
