Michael PUNCHAK Obituary
October 4, 1932 - June 17, 2014
After a courageous battle with cancer it is with great sorrow we announce the sudden passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather and dear friend to all, Mike Punchak. He is survived by his loving wife Rita, children Len (Viola), Keith (Fay) and Leanne (Joe) Huliganga and 9 grandchildren. Mike will be dearly missed by countless friends and family. His fun loving, enthusiastic approach to life, love of people, was infectious to all that knew him. He was a very social man and would go out of his way to talk and listen to everyone.
