Robert Muzyka
After a long and courageous battle with cancer, Robert Vicky Muzyka, 59, passed away peacefully at his Hinton, Alberta home surrounded by his loving family on January 1st, 2018 at the age of 59 years.
Robert was born in Atikokan, Ontario, and raised in McCreary, Manitoba, where he spent his time farming, did his schooling, and graduated from high school. After his graduation, he moved back to Atikokan and worked for Pluswood. It was here that he met his wife, Becky. In 1980, the couple moved to Slave Lake, Alberta where he worked for Weldwood for 10 years. The family then moved on to Hinton, Alberta where he worked for West Fraser Pulp Mill for 27 years. Robert was very active and was an avid golfer, hunter, enjoyed camping and especially loved to travel.
Robert will be missed by his beloved family Becky Muzyka (nee Stewart), Tanis Fedchuk (Dave McNall), Ryan Muzyka (Shonagh Samson), and his much loved grandchildren Kiera Fedchuk and Ryker Muzyka. Robert was predeceased by his parents Walter and Vina Muzyka, and by his brother Martin Muzyka.
A celebration to commemorate Robert’s life will be held on January 13 (2 pm) at the Hinton Community Centre with the Rev. Bill Bulger officiating.
