Ted was born and raised in Uzdolje, Dalmatia, in the former Yugoslavia. As a youngster Ted tended goats and sheep on his cherished Mount Promina behind his childhood home. He was forced to leave home at age 16 with many other Serbian Chetnik Youth Corp soldiers during WWII and the communist occupation immediately after. He eventually made his way through Italy and Germany before crossing to Australia for six years. Ted eventually landed in Medicine Hat in 1955 on a one – month visitor’s visa to visit his brother John and family. Ted met Ruby during his visit and never returned to Australia. Ted married the love of his life Ruby in 1956 and they were together for nearly 63 years. Ted had one main purpose in life, which was to create a better life for his family than he had for himself. His children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were his pride and joy.
Over the course of his life, Ted held many jobs including working with Mac’s Ambulance, the Department of Highways and Knight Schmidt Industries; he even tried farming. Also, for 26 years, he worked with the Medicine Hat Regional Hospital as a Registered Nursing Orderly and co-workers there were often treated to Ted’s jokester side. Ted was a long time Medicine Hat Tigers fan and member of the Medicine Hat Holy Trinity Anglican Church and was a founding member of St. Simeon Mirotocivi Serbian Orthodox Church – Calgary.

SERGEANT After a valiantly fought battle with pneumonia Brad chose to go home rather than live his life with the options given for life. The son of Jim and Claire Sergeant, and the brother of Laura, David, Pam and Anj we will dearly miss him. Like his father he had a phenomenal memory and loved to socialize. His sense of humour and endless jokes made him a joy to be around. Myotonic Dystrophy effected his speech, legs and hands but he never complained. He adjusted his life accordingly, from playing Tiny Mite hockey to later coaching Tiny Mite and as the disease progressed-his electric wheel chair. Brad was born January 6, 1962 and passed away at the Red Deer ICU April 4, 2019. In honour of his life a memorial service will be held at First Assembly of God, on May 11 at 2 o'clock. We thank you for your prayers, they were truly appreciated. Brad left looking forward to meeting his Savior.
