ORZECHOWSKI,
Jim
October 11, 1944 - November 12, 2003. Jim died on Wednesday night
at 8: 30 p.m. in the medical intensive care unit at the St. Boniface
General Hospital, after being admitted to hospital on October
8. He fought hard as was his wont, with courage, strength and
love, and we his family, were all privileged to be with him.
Jim and his wife
Simone (née
GUERTIN) celebrated their 36th wedding
anniversary on September 2nd of this year. She and their children,
Kristina BRAUN,
Lasha
ORZECHOWSKI and son-in-law Jeffrey
BRAUN
now have a huge void in their lives. Jim was such a presence
passionate, loving, generous to a fault, intelligent, funny,
fun to be with and demanding of himself and those he cared about.
He was the most positive and optimistic man. We love him and
miss him so much, husband, father and friend. Jim was the youngest
of four sons born to Lawrence and Anastasia
(HRYBOK)
ORZECHOWSKI.
He is survived by his oldest brother Nick (Rose) and a large
loving family of nieces, nephews, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.
Jim and Simone's son Demion died on April 14, 1998. Jim's father
Lawrence, mother Anastasia, brother Alexander, brother Peter,
mother-in-law Marie-Louise
GUERTIN and father-in-law Tony Sr.
(Antoine) GUERTIN have all predeceased him. Jim enjoyed a demanding
and fulfilling career as an Architect. He was the Chief Executive
Officer of Smith Carter Architects and Engineers Inc. when he
died. He joined Smith Carter in June of 1970, was elected to
the Associate Group in 1973 and became a partner in 1974. Over
the years there have been a number of articles in the press outlining
the achievements of Smith Carter. With vision and forward thinking
all of the dedicated people in this firm have come to enjoy a
pre-eminent role in not only Manitoba, but nationally and internationally
as well. Family, Friends and colleagues have all heard from Jim
at one time or another: ...
Do your homework...
Take the high road...
Work hard and smart...
Enjoy whatever you do.
Jim loved Winnipeg and Manitoba. Underrated - Central - Safe
- Caring -Affordable - Four beautiful distinct seasons. And so
he felt a need to promote and nurture this wonderful community.
He served as a volunteer member on many of this city's boards
- educational, cultural, professional, health and civic. Due
to Jim's strong respect for the Art of Architecture and the inherent
discipline, he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Architectural
Institute of Canada and inducted as a member to the Royal Canadian
Academy of Arts. This recognition by his peer group allowed him
a quiet and appreciative pride. Jim, as many people know, enjoyed
breeding and showing Newfoundland dogs - just having animals,
horses, dogs, cats - planting trees - working outdoors. He was
an expert skier, strived to be a better sailor, was frustrated
with his golf game, loved our fifth-wheel and all the opportunity
that it represented for fun in the sun. His funeral service will
be held at St. Ignatius Church, southwest corner of Corydon and
Stafford, Thursday November 20 at 12: 00 p.m. with Father Peter
MONTY, S.J. officiating. His pallbearers will be Jeffrey
BRAUN,
Wayne HEKLE, Philippe
GUERTIN, Jason
ORZECHOWSKI, Todd
ORZECHOWSKI
and Jack SMYTH.
His honourary pallbearers will be Nick
