Joanne Halyk (nee Subchyshyn)
It is with deep sadness, the family of Joanne Halyk announce her passing on January 7, 2025, surrounded by loved ones at Rose Garden Hospice, in Prince Albert, SK.

Joanne was born to parents Al and Rhona Subchyshyn on January 13, 1962, in Macklin, SK and after the age of 4 the family moved to Prince Albert. Joanne had many special memories of time spent with family at her grandparent’s cabin, the family farm and on camping trips travelling in Canada and the United States. She went to school in Prince Albert and went on to attend the University of Saskatchewan, earning a Bachelor of Education Degree and later taught in the Prince Albert Rural and Saskatchewan Rivers School Divisions.

Joanne said she fell in love with her husband Tom the day she met him. After an extended courtship, and engagement they got married in 2003 in the home they built together on their acreage south of the city where they spent so many happy years together. Upon retirement, Joanne and Tom travelled extensively through Europe and North America. They also enjoyed spending part of the winter each year in Victoria, BC.
