Serge was predeceased by his mother Francoise and his sister Desiree.

Serge was one-of-a-kind. Skilled Chiropractor of nearly 30 years, tenacious basketball coach, and a loyal husband, father and grandfather. He was a nature lover and avid hunter and fisherman. Serge was known for being a prankster who loved a good story or adventure. He adored his “chicks” as he would lovingly refer to his girls and glowed with pure joy when able to spend time with his two beautiful granddaughters. To say that we will miss him is a huge understatement, but he is finally pain free and safe in God’s care watching over us with our other beloved angels.

On May 13th, 2024 at the age of 66 years, Therese (Tress) Fay Halonen passed away suddenly at her home in Westlock, AB. She was born January 14th, 1958 in the old Radway hospital and named after one of the nuns who was working there. Her mother, Annie Zaplotinsky, often recounted how Tress stubbornly entered the world as a breech baby. At the time, who knew that Tress’s headstrong arrival would foreshadow the tenacity she brought to the rest of her life.

Tress was creative and hardworking. She was always proud that as a teen she was chosen to spend the summer of 1975 working in Waterton National Park as part of the National Parks Conservation Corps for Indian and Northern Affairs Canada. After graduating from highschool, she spent most of her life working various jobs and raising her family on an acreage near Abee, AB. After retiring, she moved to Mexico for a short time, returning to be closer to her family. She enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and had various hobbies relating to crafts and natural health.

Tress is predeceased by her parents, Victor and Annie (nee Lega) Zaplotinsky, her siblings Shirley, Leonard, Vicky and Gail, and her daughter-in-law Cathy Litwin-Halonen.

Left to mourn are her children Erin Halonen and Tylor (Charissa) Halonen; grandchildren Dylan and Tyson Halonen; as well as numerous extended family and friends, who may find solace in knowing that Tress has now found the peace she strived for throughout her life.
