John Halabura

Obituary

Passed on April 25, 2021

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of John Halabura, aged 74 years at Arborg Hospital.

He will be greatly missed by the love of his life, Irene and her family. He leaves behind 3 brothers and their spouses, many friends and relatives.

John was a hard worker all of his life right up until the end. He started as a boy working on the family farm as a young man working construction, building highways in western Canada, he helped build the floodway in Winnipeg. One of his favorite pastimes was restoring old cars, he was a great mechanic, self taught, he could unseize a motor and have it going in no time. John would be there when anyone would need help, day or night. If there was a swap meet or auction, you would be sure to see John and Irene there. He loved to dance. Enjoyed going to the casino.

John thank you for a lifetime of memories we made together, you were a wonderful man and I pray one day we will meet again. I will never forget you and love you for the rest of my life. May you rest in peace and God be with you.

Special thanks to Dr. Donnelly and to all the staff at Arborg Hospital, you were all so caring and compassionate to John and me, all the support was amazing. Special thank you to Cindy for caring for John and the support to me.

Cremation has taken place and due to Covid, a Christian burial will be held at a later date.
