It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved father, son, brother, and uncle on February 9, 2009. Remaining to forever cherish his memory are his number one baby girl, Angela (Taylor); his number one son, TJ and wife Cindy; parents, Edward and Lola Petrowski; sisters, Cindy (Phil); Lisa (Blair); big brother, Scott (Annette); little brother, James (Lorie); nephews: Avery, Paul, Ian, Gordon, Kris; nieces: Michelle, Courtney, Kyla; grandmother, Simone Petrowski, and long time friend, Ken MacKinnon.
Joe was predeceased by his son, Edward Joesph Petrowski; grandparents Granddad and Nanny Kelland, Grandpa Joe Petrowski, brother, Paul Petrowsk; and very good friend old John MacDonald.
Joe had many different passions in his life. The first being Nova Scotia where he was born and spent his younger years growing up before moving on to Winnipeg. He enjoyed in N.S. the brook, ocean and riding his bicycle and learning to ride his motorcycle with his friend, Ken. He spent many hours tinkering with old cars and trucks with his brothers. His love for motorcycles and travelling with his best friend Ken gave him freedom. Joe always seemed to keep his hands busy by learning to play the guitar (from his dad) and banjo along with wood working. He enjoyed spending many vacations camping with Angela and TJ exploring new things.
Joe made many lifelong friendships with his fellow colleagues and was known for his wicked sense of humor.
God bless you Joe we will always love you, miss you and you will always be in our hearts and thoughts. Not a day will go by that we will not think of you or laugh at your silliness
Love and miss you
Mom and dad
