Joseph David Masich
February 25, 1928 – March 1, 2014
Joe Masich, a long time farmer in the Bladworth and Davidson districts, passed away in Davidson on Saturday, March 1 at the age of eighty-six.
Joe’s parents Joseph and Mary (Balen) Masich homesteaded near Bladworth in 1914. After a tornado in 1948 destroyed the Bladworth farmstead, the family moved southwest of Davidson to the Herb Stewart farm. The early years were filled with hard work, neighbours helping neighbours and strong family values.
Joe was predeceased by his parents and two sisters, Kathleen (Kay) Meints and Josephine (Jo) Duchscher. Joe is survived by his sister Emilie Dougans, three brothers Dan (Elaine), John (Ivy) and Larry; as well as many nephews and nieces and their children.
We are deeply grateful to the staff at the Davidson Health Centre and to Dr. Lang for the exceptional care given to Joe. For friends so wishing memorials in memory of Joe may be directed to the Davidson and District Health Foundation or to a charity of choice.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Hanson’s Funeral Service Ltd.
