Obituary of Fred Palamaryk

Fred Palamaryk was born in Rhein, Sask. on June 20, 1926; a son of Peter and Anna Palamaryk. Fred farmed with his dad and later on his own. They lived in the village of Rhein and farmed in the two locations they had land. He started out farming with his dad using horses. Last year of farming before renting out the land was in fall of 1978. On June 22, 1975 he was united in marriage to Cora Lansbergen. This union was blessed with a daughter Christy. Fred worked at various jobs in Yorkton before he began working as a caretaker for the Yorkdale School board in 1980. He worked at Columbia School, where he enjoyed his work with staff and students. He had to take early retirement due to his health in 1988. Fred lived at home in Rhein, (just across the back lane where he was born and his folks lived) keeping busy with both our place and his folks. He enjoyed being outside, was somewhat like his dad, jack of all trades. In 2010 it was time to move to Yorkton to be closer to the city for medical reasons. Fred was able to be at home, having homecare earlier this year [2021]. At the end of July he was admitted to the Kamsack and District Nursing Home until there would be a place for him in Yorkton. Sadly to say, he passed away Thursday, Oct. 21st, four months after his 95th birthday. Fred was a quiet, friendly, family loving man. He loved God and for the past 30 years or more spent time each morning in intercession for family and friends. He was ready to go home to be with his Maker. He had lived a good life he said. Predeceased by his parents, Peter (1896 - 1986), and Anna (1900 - 1990); brothers William (1920 - 2012), and George (1934 - 2018); he is survived by his wife Cora; daughter Christy; and by a brother Horace; as well as nieces and nephews. Fred took a long time sometimes to do things but when the decision was made it was accomplished quickly, like when he got married. He was 48 when he met Cora (from Ontario) then a year later when she came down again, within a week he was married and then his daughter who too seemed to be in a hurry, was born. And now after a long life of 95 years, he was suddenly gone from us. The funeral service was held on Saturday, October 23rd 2021 from the Yorkton Memorial Gardens Family Centre with Rev. Tim Sheppard of The Family Worship Centre officiating. The interment took place in the Garden of St. Mark. Condolences can be sent to baileysfuneralhome.com Service Details.
