Through the years, he was involved in many other projects, directing 14 drama performances, serving on a variety of committees, running for school trustee, advocating for property owners’ issues in his community, and supporting local artists.
With his wife Judy Mandrick he had two children. He was involved with St. Anne’s Ukrainian Catholic Church, and enjoyed landscaping, needlepoint, and spending time at the family summer cottage.
He died at Winnipeg on 16 November 2007 and was buried in the Holy Family Cemetery.
