It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Carter Wyatt Majeau on Friday, December 26, 2025 at the age of 31 years. A devoted husband, a proud father, a beloved son, and a loyal friend. Carter left us far too soon, leaving behind a legacy of love and strength.

Carter’s greatest joy and proudest achievement was the family he built. He was a deeply loved husband and best friend to Tanisha. Together, they were raising two beautiful sons, Rylan and Sawyer. Carter was a hands-on father who lived for his boys; his spirit will undoubtedly live on through them.

Carter is survived by his parents, Leslie and Victor Majeau. He was a steady presence and a dear brother to Austin and his wife Harley. "Uncle Carter" will be deeply missed by his nephews, Walker and Tanner.

He will be forever remembered by his grandmothers, Angeline Majeau and Fran Kampjes, as well as his in-laws, Gerald & Krista, and Allison & Joe. Carter also leaves behind a large, close-knit circle of aunts, uncles, cousins, coworkers, and friends who were like family to him.

Carter was predeceased by his grandfathers, Oscar Majeau and John Kampjes, who we find comfort in believing were there to welcome him home.

"Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near; still loved, still missed, and very dear."

John Brodyk
May 2, 1936 ~ November 8, 2025

We are sad to announce the passing of John Brodyk on Saturday, November 8, 2025, at the age of 89 years.

Uncle John was predeceased by his mother, Jenny Brodyk; his father, Fred Brodyk; his brother, Ken Brodyk, his brother, Mike Brodyk; his brother, Bill Brodyk; his sister, Elizabeth Fotty (nee Brodyk); his brother, Larry Brodyk; and his partner, Mary Mulak.

Uncle John grew up on the family farm near Smoky Lake. He was a man looking for adventure and, after finishing school, he moved to British Columbia before boarding a ship and moving to Australia where he worked on the railways for 25 years. After he returned to Canada, he settled down in Waskatenau where he enjoyed the small village lifestyle while still maintaining an active life. With his camper and boat, he and his partner travelled all over Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Alaska.

Uncle John had many hobbies. He enjoyed reading, gardening, fishing, cooking, and regular card games at his sister’s house. He liked dancing and music and went to a
variety of music festivals around the province. He liked to feed the birds and kept tubs of bird feed on hand.

Uncle John never threw anything away if he could repurpose it. He changed old tires into swan figurine planters. He changed old garbage can lids into bird feeders. Tin cans
became mounts for curtain rods. Old coffee containers became junction boxes in the yard to connect extension cord plugs. Old window screens became bug screens on the front of his truck. He was a mechanic and maintained his own vehicle. Uncle John also liked to work with wood and created silhouette figures of cowboys and cowgirls out of plywood to decorate barns, garages and other buildings. His work shop in his garage was huge and well equipped. He kept physically active for most of his life until he became ill and lost his mobility in the spring of 2025.

Uncle John will be missed by his friends and family.

The family expresses their sincere gratitude to Dr. El Hajj and the staff at the Lamont Hospital for their quality of care and compassion during the last months of Uncle John‘s life.

At Uncle John’s request, there will be no funeral service.

In Loving Memory of
Elizabeth “Jill” Flaherty (nee Hyatt)
January 10, 1945 ~ December 18, 2025

With deep love, we share the passing of our Mom, Elizabeth “Jill” Flaherty, at the age of 80 years, on Thursday, December 18, 2025.

She leaves behind her daughters, Shawne, Jennifer (Bryan), and Darlene; her grandchildren, Amy (Eli), Ellen, Lucy, Branden, Travis (Alexandra), and Evan (Cheyanne); her great-grandchildren, Luca and Aubrey; her brother, Eric (Narumi); as well as her nieces and nephews in Ontario and B.C.

She is reunited with our Dad, her husband, Robert “Bob” Flaherty. Mom was predeceased by her brother, Keith (Fran) and her niece, Christine.

Mom began her nursing career in Ontario and later moved to Penticton, B.C. where she worked at Penticton Regional Hospital until retirement. After Dad’s passing, she settled in St. Albert to be close to family and her grandchildren. When she came to Alberta from B.C. she worked for the Loseca Foundation and remained connected with many people there after full retirement.

In her earlier years, Mom loved to travel—especially to the U.K. She also enjoyed visiting family in Ontario. In her later years, Mom enjoyed daily walks, aquasize classes, and coffee with friends. But most of all, she cherished time with family.

Mom was once a competitive figure skater, this stayed with her all her life. It showed in her love of movement and strength.

Most likely she is now lacing up her skates, ready to join Dad (a hockey player) on the ice . We know she is surrounded by family and love, and her many furry companions are waiting there too.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been a part of Mom’s life over the years, and to her doctors and specialists who helped guide and support her through these past few years.

Jill will be buried alongside her husband Bob in Penticton, British Columbia, in the spring. There will also be a Celebration of Jill’s life in St. Albert, Alberta, details to be announced at a later date.
