Obituary of Andy T. Beblow

Andrew Beblow unexpectedly passed away on May 19, 2021 at the age of 69. He is survived by his wife of 47 years, Sandra; his sons David (Heather Vedress); Craig (Sheila Schindelka); grand-daughter Charleese, and his grand-puppies Buster and Reggie. Andy was born in Yorkton, SK on September 12, 1951 to Peter and Anne Beblow. He grew up on the family farm near Orcadia, SK, where he learned his work ethic, and passed this on to his boys. Andy finished his education in Yorkton. In 1972, Andy met his future wife, Sandra, and they were married on November 17, 1973. Just over a year later, in early 1975, Andy and Sandy welcomed their first born, David, followed by Craig in 1976. Andy started his career working for Yorkton Concrete, and he ended his career retiring from SaskPower in 2016. Andy enjoyed many different sports throughout his life including playing on the Orcadia Ball team in his younger years, bowling, curling, and also golfing in SaskPower events. Along with these sports, Andy also helped out with the boys in baseball, football, or anything they were involved in. Andy was very generous with his time, and took pride in his volunteer work canvasing for the Diabetes Association, and working as a bartender at St. Mary's Cultural Center events. Holidays and family gatherings were important to Andy as this was an opportunity to socialize with his siblings, nieces, and nephews. Camping with the family was another favourite pastime. This carried on into retirement, where Andy and Sandy have enjoyed their seasonal lot near Good Spirit Lake. Through retirement, travel was very important as well. Recent trips included an Alaskan cruise, trips to Boston, Cuba, Hawaii, and Europe. Andy was predeceased by his parents, Peter and Anne Beblow, his parents-in-law, Steve and Rose Dwernychuk, and a brother-in-law, Stephen West. He is survived by his sisters, Shirley (Ed) Hudy; Agnes (Mike) Geysen; his brother, Allan (Patty) Beblow; sisters-in-law, Alice (Jerry) Dutchak, JoAnne West; Linda (Darcy) Watkins; Denise (Ashley) O'hare; brothers-in-law, Greg (Lauren) Dwernychuk; George (Joanne) Dwernychuk, Grant (Lisa) Dwernychuk; Garth (Sheri) Dwernychuk, and many nieces, nephews and aunts and uncles.
