Terry Anthony Bobyk Innisfail, Alberta Obituary

Terry Anthony Bobyk

Mr. Terry Anthony ‘T-Bone’ Bobyk of Innisfail, Alberta sadly passed away at Wakaw, Saskatchewan on Saturday, July 4, 2020 at the age of 51 years. Terry was born in Kamsack, Saskatchewan, but made Innisfail, Alberta his home for thirty-one years. He grew up on a farm, where he could ride his dirt bike through the fields; help his dad flood the front yard for the annual skating rink; and practice his home run swing, from home plate, on the family Baseball Diamond. While growing up, he was involved in hockey; as a goalie with the Kamsack Flyers in the winter season, and playing fastball in the summer with the Brandon School, and other local teams. As he grew older, golf became his passion; where he could tease his friends, as they sliced their ball into the trees. Terry will be known for his teasing, sense of humor, gathering with friends, singing karaoke, his chef qualities for making beef jerky and borscht, and living life to its fullest. He always made his way back home to connect with his small-town roots, and visit with family and childhood friends. Terry’s memory and life story will live on through his parents, Tony and Jean Bobyk, his sister, Theresa (Richard) Eng, his niece, Desiree (Michael) Wirll and their daughters, Aliyah and Berkley, his niece, Kiandra Eng, his sister, Alicia Bobyk, his daughter, Rachel Bobyk; his partner of seventeen years, Annette Cowie and her sons; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and colleagues at Bilton Welding and Manufacturing Ltd. Terry was predeceased by his paternal grandparents, Fred and Francis Bobyk, his aunt, Marie and uncle, Joe Boisvert, his maternal grandparents, Walter and Pauline Witowski, his aunt, Pearl Raiter, his uncle, Walter Witowski Jr, and his uncle, Henry Yakimoski. A Memorial Service will be held at the Innisfail Golf Club Tournament House on Friday, July 17, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. Due to Covid-19 Regulations, 100 people will be allowed in the Tournament House and will be required to wear a mask. Limited seating will be available on the patio. Terry’s family asks that attendees wear their favorite golf attire. A Life Celebration Service at Kamsack, Saskatchewan will be announced at a later date. If desired, Memorial Donations in Terry’s honor may be made directly to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch, No. 104, 5104 - 49 Avenue, Innisfail, Alberta, T4G 1R1; where Terry was a Registered Member since 2013. The family wishes to express their special appreciation to Marc Blondeau of Kushneryk Funeral Services in Wakaw, Saskatchewan, for his compassion and additional assistance to the family. Tony, Jean and family wish to thank those who picked up the telephone, sent cards, brought food, drove family and sent flowers. Your thoughtfulness and kindness has helped us get through this time of heartache. Condolences may be sent or viewed at www.heartlandfuneralservices.com.
