Condolence: I have been a co-worker of Tim's (Bronie's son) for 11+ years. Unfortunately I never got to meet Bronie, but reading the message that describes his life made me appreciate how much he was loved and he loved his family. My wife Carla and I send my condolences to the family.

Condolence: With hearts full of love, peace and gratitude we announce the passing of Bronie Edward Lozinski, on July 20, 2022. Bronie passed away peacefully in his home, with his wife and children at his side. He lived 96 years and 7 months.

Bronie was born on December 9, 1925, and raised on the family farm just outside of Norquay, Saskatchewan. He met his future wife Vernes Delores (nee Derkatch), when he was hired by her dad to do some work around their family’s farm. Eight years later, Bronie & Vernes tied the knot and started a life together that would span a spectacular 69 years. Shortly after marrying, and after a stint in Ontario building power line infrastructure, Bronie “took a ride” out west with his cousin in search of work. Vernes packed up their few belongings, the most precious of which was their new baby Edie, and followed Bronie to make their forever home in Edmonton. They fed and billeted many workers and family members over the years. Four more children (Debbie, Tim, Chrissy and Kathy) were born out of their love, and the family thrived in a home filled with Vernes and Bronie’s unique blend of merriment and tranquility.

Bronie worked at CN Rail for 35 years; he walked to work every day, and acquired his nickname “Quietman.” He was the epitome of wise and calm. He enjoyed solving puzzles, watching sports on T.V, and spending most of his down-time in his ingeniously organized and curated garage. It was his place of comfort and peace. He was clever and resourceful, and a self-taught mechanical engineer. Inventing and fixing anything and everything in his garage was a lifelong passion. Their house is full of hand made treasures that just make sense, from the garden to the kitchen. He was also strong, vigorous and full of vitality; digging out basements by hand when his family was still young, and climbing ladders to fix things late into his 80’s and early 90’s. To his grandchildren he was both a grand and indestructible force in life, as well as an energy as soft and gentle as one of Grandma’s flowers.

Bronie was a long time member of the St. Edmunds men’s club, and spent many nights volunteering and hanging out with all his buddies. In his spare time he also enjoyed beekeeping, which yielded 1 to 2 tons a year of the best tasting honey. His children, and later grandchildren, would be told “You want Money? Go sell Honey.” So door-to-door they went. Most of his kids, (the lucky ones at least), still have a tub of Grandpa’s honey in their pantry to this day.

Our sweet, honest, strong, quiet, intelligent, patient, resourceful, stoic, and accommodating father/grandfather. How lucky we were to have him. How important he is to our family. Bronie will be lovingly remembered by his wife Vernes, his children Debbie Lamoureux (Michel), Tim (Patti), Christine Skerlak, Kathy Cosentino (Pedro Karam), 11 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his daughter Edith (Edie) Schewchuk and son-in-law Gary Skerlak.
