Joe was born on the family farm at Candiac, Saskatchewan on September 5, 1936. Joe lived a remarkable life, deeply rooted in his passion for farming with draft horses. He dedicated over 70 years to farming full-time.
At 65, an age when many consider retirement, Joe embarked on a new chapter, building a brand-new barn and farmyard. This marked a vibrant "second act" in a life truly well-lived.
Joe is survived by his beloved wife Jacqueline and his sons: Wayne, Kevin and Brian. He also leaves behind his sister Bernice; many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his daughter Brenda Rydzik; daughter in-law Cheryl Feniak; two grandchildren; his parents; two sisters and two brothers.
Joe will be forever loved and deeply missed by Jacqueline and his entire family.
A private graveside service was held in the St. Joseph's Parish Cemetery, Candiac, Saskatchewan on Monday, July 7, 2025.
