------------------
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Garry Rogoski, aged 73, at Deer Lodge Centre on July 17, 2024, with his beloved wife Evelyn and his son Brian and daughter Tammy by his side.
Garry bravely fought vascular dementia for the last three years, a horrible and devastating disease with no cure that had a tremendous impact on his family and friends. His courage and strength during this difficult time was truly remarkable.
He was a devoted husband, loving father, son, brother, uncle and cherished friend, with his wife at his side and surrounded by family and friends throughout his final journey.
Garry was born March 24, 1951 in Gimli, Manitoba and is predeceased by his mother Anne Rogoski (nee Tomko) and father Charles Rogoski.
Those left to cherish his memory is his loving wife Evelyn of 54 years; their children, son Brian (Ann-Marie Bell) and daughter Tammy Paterson (Andrew), and two grandchildren, Kayleigh and Sydney.
He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by his brothers Ronnie (Arlene Kelor), Grant (Grace), his Auntie Betty-Ann Skaritko, nephews Aaron Kelor (Sasha) Tyler (Payton Miller), niece Brittany, and many extended family, cousins and friends.
Garry was raised in Winnipeg Beach. In 1970, he married the love of his life and started a family. He worked in the family business, Dan’s Transfer, alongside his dad Charlie, Uncle Victor and brother, Ronnie. Known for his strong work ethic and being in great shape Garry was always trusted with the heavier side of the load when on a delivery. After the family business was sold, Garry dedicated over 50 years to the trucking industry working for Bochurka Brothers, Atomic Transport, and Winnipeg Moving & Storage. Garry touched the lives of everyone he worked with, creating lifelong friendships along the way.
While residing in Winnipeg Beach, Garry was dedicated to his community. He served as the president of the curling club and held a position as a school trustee in the Evergreen school division. The family business was involved in the annual Wonderful Winter Weekend (WWW) event, where they always looked forward to preparing their float for the parade. Garry and his wife actively participated in many curling bonspiels over the years always displaying his passion for the sport. Honoring his father Charlie, who served as a Sergeant in World War II, Garry was a proud member of Branch 61 Royal Canadian Legion for 35 years.
As a dedicated school trustee, Garry attended annual conferences at the Winnipeg Inn. To make the most of these occasions, he and his wife were inspired to take ballroom dancing lessons, a reflection of their desire to share special moments with each other, creating cherished memories together.
In 1983, Garry made the move to Winnipeg to further his opportunities and growth in the transportation industry. During that time, he maintained a strong connection to his hometown, always going back on weekends to the lake, affectionately known as “The Shack.” A cherished retreat where he could unwind and enjoy the company of family and friends.
Garry had a deep love for sports, especially curling, and was a dedicated fan of the Winnipeg Jets and Blue Bombers, never missing an opportunity to cheer them on at games. He had a passion for music and loved creating playlists which he joyfully shared with his family and friends, particularly on weekends at the lake. Known for his kindness and generosity, he was always willing to lend a helping hand to friends and neighbors in need, making everyone feel welcome.
Garry will be dearly missed by all who knew him. His legacy of love, compassion, and laughter will continue to inspire us all.
A graveside service will take place at the Holy Rosary Cemetery, Saturday, September 7, 2024 at 11:30 a.m. to be followed by a luncheon at the Winnipeg Beach Legion. Flowers can be sent to the Royal Canadian Legion at Winnipeg Beach on the day of the celebration of life.
Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure, and loved beyond words. You will never be forgotten. We all love you!
