With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Maurice John Bordun on May 22nd at 90 years of age. Born on December 29, 1933 in Stony Mountain, Manitoba, Maurice was the second eldest child born to Kornell and Adrianna Bordun, originally from Bukovina, Ukraine.

In his younger years, Maurice enjoyed camping, skiing, and playing drums alongside his brother in a polka band. Maurice's faith and beliefs were very important to him, and he was a member of the Lakeshore Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses.

I got to know Maurice, while working at Sears Optical a few years back. Him and his wife Flo, were two of the kindest, sweetest, most loving people you would ever hope to meet. They were the type of people who genuinely cared about how you were doing, and whom you could spend hours with talking to about anything. I´ll never forget Maurice´s laugh and incredible sense of humour. He was always one to have a few jokes ready to tell.
R.I.p Maurice, heavens got a good one.

I´m so sorry to hear of Maurice´s passing. Whenever I saw him at work he always had a smile and we would have a chat. He was such a gentle soul.
