It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of dad, Philip Stolar, who left us in the early morning hours of Ukrainian Christmas Eve. His final days were spent surrounded by people who loved him, especially unwaivering love and dedication on the part of dad's partner, Stella. He asked her to help him on his journey and she did just that, never leaving his side.
Dad was born on December 1, 1921 and grew up most of his life in the St. Andrew's area. Later he farmed mainly within the Interlake area. He was predeceased by his parents, Wasyl and Matrona Stolar; brothers Peter (Lena), Edward (Anne), Alex (Rose) and Joseph (Anne); infant son in 1951; two grandchildren Angela and Todd; and twin siblings Josie and John.
Dad will be lovingly cherished by his children, sons Ken (Thea) and Bill; daughter Sally (Gordon); as well as their mother Pauline; remembered fondly by grandchildren, Debbie (Mike), Ken Jr. (Sarana), Karen (Mike), Kim (Joe), Shauna (Ryan), Candace (Chris), Jason (Tara) and Darin along with their families; brother John (Ella); sisters Mary (late Walter) and Lena (late Mike); numerous nephews and nieces enjoyed his humour and smiles throughout the years; and with utmost devotion and love, dad's partner in the last 4 years, Stella and her family, Steven (Stacey) and Samantha (Nick).
Dad was an avid farmer, turning the soil, sowing and reaping the harvests was his passion. He worked several job in Winnipeg, mostly in shipping and receiving to supplement the farm income. He adored his family and enjoyed as the years passed to watch it grow. He appreciated everything he was fortunate enough to receive. He was a proud man, respectful and respected by many.
The family would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to Drs. Zoppa, Penner, Lee and Wong for their guidance and professionalism throughout dad's journey. The nurses and staff at Selkirk General Hospital were the angels that kept dad comfortable during his time spent there. Thank you. We also want to thank Stella for her strength, love and dedication through these times. Great appreciation is extended to Gilbart Funeral Home for their compassion and expertise for the closing steps in dad's life.
Cremation has taken place as per dad's request. The family wishes to extend an invitation for everyone to join them in a celebration of his life on Wednesday, January 15, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. in the Gilbart Funeral Chapel, 309 Eveline St. Selkirk, MB. Reverend Peter Chorney will preside. Luncheon to follow at the Holy Eucharist Hall, Selkirk. A private family interment will follow in the summer.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that any donation be made to Selkirk General Hospital Palliative Care Unit.
Thank you for letting us have him in our lives. Now he joins his father whose funeral was exactly 50 years again on this date.
