Anne Lukowich
(June 28, 1926 – June 20, 2011)
Our loving mother, Anne Lukowich of Prince Albert, SK passed away peacefully on Monday, June 20th, 2011 and is now in the comfort of God’s hands.
She was predeceased by her parents Victoria and Wawryk Fusick, her brothers and sisters John, Stanley, Paul, Walter, Francis, Nellie, Tom, Louis, Mike, Joe and Tom (2) and her loving husband Mike Lukowich. She will be lovingly remembered by her companion Mike Skwarok; her 4 children Albina Lukowich (Norm), Bronie Lukowich (Patti), Cheryl (Larry) Balon and David (Kristie-Lynn) Lukowich along with her 8 Grandchildren and 5 Great-Grandchildren. Also left to cherish her memory are her sister Gene Boehm and many extended family members.
Anne was born June 28th, 1926 in Lorenzo, Sask. She grew up on the family farm with her parents until she met Mike Lukowich. They wed February 24th, 1946. Anne and her husband Mike lived in several communities including Lorenzo, Moonhills, Mayfair (where they owned and operated a service station), and farmed in the Alticane area. In 1956 they moved to Prince Albert. Anne started to work at the Holy Family Hospital immediately, then later at the Victoria Union Hospital.
Anne enjoyed gardening, picking low bush blueberries, crocheting, knitting, fishing for pickerel, decorating Ukrainian Easter eggs and spending time on her son’s (Bronie) farm. She also took great pleasure in visiting and socializing with family and friends in the Shell Lake and Krydor area. All those who came to visit at the family home were graced with her amazing food offerings; baking, canning and Ukrainian specialties. Anne was full of life, kind, generous, helpful, and expressed herself freely.
She enjoyed her last years with her companion Mike Skwarok until Anne’s health needs became very demanding, at which time she moved into the care of Mont St. Joseph Home. The family is very grateful and extend their thanks to each of the supportive staff who cared for our wonderful mother. Anne will be dearly missed by us all.
