On August 15, 2019 our dear father, Sam Schurek of Thorsby passed away peacefully at the age of 94 years in palliative care at the Leduc Community Hospital after being diagnosed with cancer less than two weeks prior to his passing.
He will be lovingly remembered by his son Rick, daughter Kathy (Brian), relatives, nephews, nieces and friends.
He was predeceased by his wife Margaret in 1999; parents John & Mary; three sisters, Katie, Mary and Frances; five brothers, Jack, Stanley, Michael, Rudolph and Albert.
The family is very grateful and would like to thank Dr. Jana Holden; the nurses on Station 22; Dr. Lee and the nurses in the emergency department for the compassion, support and kindness that was given to Dad.
Dad was a kind and hard working man who loved his family, dogs & the farm; he loved to joke around and had nicknames for many of his family and friends. We will miss seeing your smiling face and your love will be forever in our hearts.
In keeping and respecting with Dad’s wishes, no service will be held.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Leduc Community Hospital Foundation.
