It was there he developed a special fondness for the water. His personal favourites were his handcrafted Y-Flyer and the Sheppard. Another special treat for Max was his home on Cambridge where he enjoyed puttering year round whether it be gardening, painting or simply sitting in the great room in front of a roaring fire listening to his bride Phyllis playing the piano. He also enjoyed his regular jaunts with his boyhood baseball pals and business friends at Alycia's regaling fond memories in past days. He is now at peace and those who have known Max are better people because of his friendship and generosity. Sleep well Max, knowing you will be missed, a legacy has been left to all you have touched. As per his wishes his ashes will be spread at West Hawk Lake. In lieu of flowers, donations to made in Max's name to the YMHA, Rose and Max Rady Community Centre or the Alzheimer's Society.

GREGORY KYLE SHUMILA It is with great sadness that the Shumila family announces the sudden passing of our beloved Greg on July 7, 2004 at the age of 23. Greg will be lovingly remembered by his parents Elmer and Valerie and sister Kim (Ken). He will also be missed by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends. Greg grew up in West Kildonan attending elementary school at Margaret Park where many lasting friendships began. He moved on to Edmund Partridge Junior High School, and then to West Kildonan Collegiate where he graduated in 2000. As a child Greg enjoyed sports, playing soccer out of Vince Leah Community Centre and baseball out of Garden City. In the summers Greg found enjoyment wakeboarding with friends, and snowboarding during the winters. Growing up Greg also enjoyed the times spent at the family farm near Beausejour where he along with his cousins spent countless hours snowmobiling and riding dirt bikes. Greg's love for dirt bikes matured into a love for motorcycles and cars, which was evident to those near to him by the amount of time he invested with his friends and family working with passion in the garage. Greg entered the work force at an early age taking on a paper route. As he got older he began working at Red Lobster on McPhillips, where he continued to work part-time until present. After graduating Greg took an auto body course and went on to work for Winter's Auto Body. After four years with Winter's Greg was looking for a new experience and began working at JDS Construction. Throughout his work experience Greg developed many friendships which he cherished. Of recent, Greg would discuss plans to further his education and was deciding what career path to follow while enjoying the time spent with family, hanging out with friends, and going to the gym. For those who knew Greg we will miss his unique character. His generosity and ability to always be there for his friends coupled with the smile he carried wherever he went will echo on in our memories, much like his irreplaceable laugh. Greg and his slurpees will be greatly missed by Barney. Services to be held at Glen Eden Funeral Home. Prayers will be held on Monday, July 12, at 7:00 p.m. Funeral will take place on Tuesday, July 13, at 2:30 p.m. with Father Isidore Dziadyk O.S.B.M. officiating. Interment and reception to follow.
