Obituary of Edith Ann Poloyko

Edith passed away peacefully, at her Regina Home with family at her side, on Monday, January 13, 2020 at the age of 88 years. “To everything there is a season, a time for every Matter under heaven; a time to be born, And a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to weep, and a time to laugh, a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to keep and time to cast away.” (Ecclesiastes) She was born and raised in Dysart, SK on May 28, 1931 by predeceased parents, Joseph and Barbara Dombrowski.
