Mike Tanasiuk
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mike Tanasiuk on September 24th, 2020 at the age of 71.
Before retiring, Mike was a paramedic with the city of Edmonton for over 35 years. He was highly regarded by his coworkers and has brought comfort and help to thousands of his patients over his years on the job. He enjoyed golf and looked forward to his Sunday coffee dates with his friends. Mike was a family man and he loved grandchildren more than anything.
Mike is predeceased by his partner, Darlene Kalynchuk, his father, Bill Tanasiuk and his Brother, Alex Tanasiuk.
He is survived by his step-daughter Dawn (Mark), step-son Chad (Darcy) and his grandchildren Maya and Pierce. He is also survived by his mother Helen, bother Peter (Gloria), sister Violet (Bam), Nieces Shelly (Bret), Joanne(Jamie) and his great niece Jayde.
Due to current restrictions the family has decided to not hold a formal service at this time.
I send my condolences to you and to your family during this time of sorrow. The Bible gives a real hope and promises that your loved one will soon come back to live in a peaceful paradise on the earth. (John 5:28, 29)
We send our condolences to all family. Mike was a good friend & we will miss his humour. He loved his family and always put them first. Good bye Mike may you Rest In Peace. Donna & Donald Pozzolo
Mike was a highly respected senior paramedic on Edmonton EMS Platoon 4 for over 35 years. His kindness and understated sense of humour were well known to all of us.The excellence in patient care that he provided was a standard he held himself too, setting the bar high. He will be missed.
Condolences never quite adequately express the sadness and sense of loss that we feel. Mike was a person who made your day better, I and many others were fortunate to enjoy 35 years of his bright and pleasant nature. Even through the recent difficult times Mike expressed a sense of calmness, acceptance, and a deep appreciation for his family and friends. What a fine person.
