Miles Paul Crozon of Oliver Lodge, Saskatoon, SK, (and formerly of Naicam, SK), passed away at St. Paul鈥檚 Hospital, Saskatoon, on Thursday, May 28, 2015. He was 48 years of age. Miles was born to Paul and Anna (Theisen) Crozon in St. Elizabeth鈥檚 Hospital, Humboldt, SK, on February 12, 1967. He attended school in Naicam and, after graduation, helped on the family farm until his dad retired. Miles鈥� passion for hockey started at a very young age; he would go over to watch T.V. with his uncles who lived in the same yard so he could watch his MONTREAL CANADIENS. They would watch it on the French channel 鈥渁s the announcers were so Toronto Maple Leafs biased 听that the Canadiens could do no good鈥�. He continued to watch the Montreal Canadiens in French all his life. His love of hockey led to his helping the Naicam Vikings Senior hockey team at the old arena in Naicam, filling the old water tank so they could flood the ice, but he wasn't the most energetic, so he wouldn't help scrape the ice. The next job Miles had was Equipment Manager. He told many stories about the road trips he would go on with the team for away games, remembered all the players鈥� names, and could still tell you who they were. He was even goal judge and his favorite spot was always at the far end of the rink. He also loved attending Melfort Mustang games, especially when they playing against the Humboldt Broncos. Miles loved playing cards; whether it was Rummy, Crazy Queens or Crib, he was always very competitive and didn't lose very often. Another favorite game that was played at the farm was 500. One time they were playing and Miles was losing (which didn鈥檛 happened very often), so he threw his glove up in the air; by chance he caught the ball in his glove, and it landed on his lap. Miles never stood when he played 500 - he always sat, so we still can't figure how he always ended up batting. He also enjoyed the water and could swim like a fish. As a member of the Knights of Columbus, he was in charge of the 50/50 table. Due to health reasons, Miles moved to several different care homes over the past six years, including Parkland Place in Melfort, Chateau Providence in St. Brieux, Sunnyside Nursing Home in Saskatoon, and Oliver Lodge, which was his home for the past three years. He had such wonderful care at all of the care homes he resided in. Miles was completely at home at Oliver Lodge. He had immediate family members living close by (across the street) who could pop over to visit on a moment鈥檚 notice to bring him treats, batteries for his T.V. remote, or to fix his computer when he was having trouble. Miles always had a smile on his face and would talk to everyone who passed by his room. A very friendly man, he got to know many people whom he met at dialysis, visiting on coffee row, or wherever he was. Everyone who knew Miles was always so surprised at the fact that he never complained about anything, even though he may not have been feeling well himself. He was known for his "BIG" heart. Miles will be lovingly remembered by his father, Paul Crozon of Naicam; three sisters and one brother: Diane (Larry) Walby of Humboldt and family, Cassandra (Eric) Crone and daughter Braelyn, and Jonnathan Walby; Janice Crozon of Naicam; Warren Crozon (Joanne Bourgault) of Saskatoon and family, Alexander and Mattea; and Tania (Trent) Lalonde of Saskatoon and family, Amy and Paige; and by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, caregivers and friends. He was predeceased by his mother, Anna (nee Theisen) Crozon; and by his nephew, Joshua Lalonde. The Prayer Service for Miles was held at St. George鈥檚 R.C.
