1929 ~ 2017
Joe passed away peacefully on Monday, August 14, 2017 at East Gate Lodge Personal Care Home at the age of 88.
Joe was the eldest child of John and Annie Tymko, of Allegra, MB in the R.M. of Brokenhead. There he met, and then married the love of his life, Marion (nee Kruk), on October 29, 1955, and started their family a few years later. They were happily married for more than 58 years until Marion’s passing in 2014.
Joe was predeceased recently by his sister Jean Tymko in March, 2016 and one brother in infancy. He leaves to mourn, his children Allan, Kelly (Patti), and Brenda Wiedermann (Glenn).
He is also survived by his grandchildren Kurtis, Courtney, Danielle, Brandon and Nolan, all of whom were his pride and joy.
Joe was passionate about many things. He was a Journeyman Carpenter of which he took great pride in his craft. He also farmed and was very actively involved with the Holy Ghost Catholic Church, Knights of Columbus, and Club 50. He loved to fish, ride his bicycle and play crib at the Senior Centre.
Many thanks to the staff at East Gate Lodge-Shamrock Unit, Betel Care Home and Beausejour Hospital as well as Dr. Van Rensburg for all the care and compassion they showed towards our father.
Divine Liturgy will be celebrated at 10:30 a.m., Friday, August 18, 2017 at the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Catholic Church at 319 6th St., Beausejour. Interment will take place in the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Cemetery.

Condolences for the family of “Joseph Tymko”
Thank you Wally & Marlene.
Joe and I did many things together over the years. He provided expertise and advice when I build our house at Belle Place in Beausejour. He helped me to construct our summer cottage.
I am sure that losing his wife Marion in 2014 was very difficult for him. I also had many contacts with Joe at the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Beausejour during the years that my family and I lived in Beausejour (1969 to 1997).
I extend condolences to Joe’s family. I plan to attend Joe’s funeral on August 18th.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Love to hear all the stories about dad.
We are very saddened to hear of Mr. Tymko’s passing. I have the most cherished memories of the Tymko household through many decades of friendship with Brenda.
Mr.Tymko was a gentle sweet man with the most generous smile.
To all of the Tymko family :
We’re so sorry for the loss of your dear Father.
Brad and Jill Thorarinson and family

We were very sadden to hear of Joe’s passing. I remember him at the Co-op Gas Bar where I used to work…..he visited us quite regularly. He was such a friendly man and loved to chat. He will be missed by many.
Prayers and hugs to all the family ……..may he rest in peace.
