Tom Melnick

1921 ~ 2017

With great sadness we announce the passing of Tom on October 19, 2017, at the age of 95.

 Left to cherish his memory are his loving wife Esther of 68 years; sons Randy (Hazel) and Jeffrey (Thecla) and grandchildren Kilmeny,  Katya, Madi; daughter Lynette (Ken) and grandchildren Kendra (Devin), Kurtis, Kristopher and great grandchildren Thomas & Harriet. 

 Tom was born November 1, 1921 on a farm in Whitemouth, MB. His career began as a welder and mechanic. He later became a farm machinery dealer which in the mid 50’s developed into a GM dealership. Full of energy and entrepreneurial spirit, Tom was able to build a flourishing business including an Autobody Shop, Bus Line & Taxi Service. He loved his clientele and people loved dealing with Tommy.   

 Later in life, his pride and joy was his grandchildren.

 Esther and family extend their gratitude to the staff of the Lac du Bonnet Personal Care Home for their excellent care.

 Funeral service will be held at Whiteshell Baptist Church, Seven Sisters Falls, on Wednesday, October 25 at 2:00 p.m.

 In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to either the Lac du Bonnet or Whitemouth PCH or Whiteshell Baptist Church.
