Lynn: My mother and father (Rose & Walter) met in around 1946 at Canada Packers meat plant in Winnipeg. Before they met Rose lived with her mother and father and younger siblings at 125 Speers Rd. I saw on you tube where it (the meat plant) was imploded in 2001. ** See link to that UTUBE video in Lynn's Forum comments.

In 1953 Walter moved to Chicago where he was employed with General Motors from 1960 to 1968.

On Aug 17, 1970 Walter JOSEFCHUK died in Chicago, Illinois, at the age of 45.

At the time of his death, Walter and Rose were living at 1425 South Clarence, Berwyn (Chicago), Illinois. Requiem Mass was held in the Holy Ghost RC Church, Selkirk at Aikens St. Internment in the Holy Sepulcher Memorial Gardens. ** I’m presuming this was in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
