TOKARSKI: Steven George

July 3, 1952 – April 19, 2017

Steven Tokarski of the Watson District, SK, passed away at home on the family farm on Wednesday, April 19, 2017 with his wife by his side. He was 64 years of age.  Steve was a quiet-spoken, well-seasoned, very interesting man who left his mark in every greeting and conversation. He loved his family, was very protective of his children, and loved to talk with and be around family and close friends. Steve also loved having friends over for dinner; he enjoyed good food and good drink. An avid outdoorsman, Steve had a passion for nature, farming and gardening. He also loved picking wild mushrooms. Steve was a fisherman, through and through; he would jump at the opportunity to fish, especially with his favourite buddies Goldie and Morris, and was known for his master filleting skills. Throughout his life, Steve had an on-going thirst for knowledge and believed in life-long learning. He was a strong man who took pride in his work; he knew something about everything and could fix almost anything. Steve loved cars and could name any vehicle at first glance.  He had a competitive side and loved to win, a characteristic anyone who played cards with him could attest to. Steve won the Watson Legion Crib tournaments three years in a row. He also had a creative side, loved art, and quite enjoyed catering with Debra. He was the quality control person when the perogies were being made and took great pride in his designing of the fruit and dessert platters. Fond memories of Steve will bring to mind how important Debra, the love of his life, was to him; the passion he had for his farm; the enjoyment he got from watching the hummingbirds and orioles in his yard, the pride he had in being well-dressed; and his pleasure in having a good drink of Scotch. “Steve was a good husband, father, and grandfather who left us too soon. There are many trips he hasn’t yet taken, many restaurants he should frequent, many items he still needs to collect, and who will remind Debra to please, be patient?” Steve leaves to mourn his wife, Debra; daughter Taya; sons: Paul and Doug (Fay) and grandsons: Christopher and Eli.” A Celebration of Steve’s Life was held at the Watson Civic Centre on Wednesday, April 26, 2017, at 3:00 p.m., officiated by Rev. Brenda Curtis. Others taking part were: Taya Tokarski and Paul Tokarski, eulogists; Ingrid Eggerman and Chris Gaudet, memorial table attendants; urnbearer was Debra Tokarski; Neil and Mitchell Bryce, refreshment table attendants. The family would like to thank Dr. Ron Kozakavich for the years of service to this family and especially toward the end of Steve’s life, and also the Palliative Care Nurses. Memorial donations can be directed to Watson School Athletics or Watson Minor Sports.  Schuler-Lefebvre Funeral Chapel, Humboldt, SK.
