Obituary of Wyatt Jon Elkow

ELKOW, Wyatt Jon November 22, 1997 – January 1, 2017 If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane, We would walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye... You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why. Our hearts ache in sadness and secret tears flow, What it means to lose you no one will ever know. On Sunday, January 1, 2017, Wyatt Jon Elkow of Vegreville, Alberta suddenly passed away at the age of 19. Wyatt is survived by his loving family, his Mom and Dad, Cheryl and Chris; his sister Rylee; and his buddy Shilo; grandmother Helen Elkow; along with numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Wyatt was predeceased by his maternal grandparents Albert and Sylvia Dziwenka and his paternal grandfather Ed Elkow. A Celebration of Wyatt’s Life will be held on Friday, January 6, 2017 at 7:00 p.m. at the Vegreville Social Centre with Rev. Wes Stefanec officiating.
