Obituary of Allan Marian Pudlowski
Allan Marian Pudlowski
(January 6, 1940 - September 19, 2022)
Allan Marian Pudlowski of Camrose, Alberta, passed away on Monday, September 19, 2022 at the age of 82 years.
Allan Pudlowski passed away peacefully at home, in the morning hours of September 19, 2022, at 82 years of age. Allan was born on January 6, 1940 to Michael and Alexandra Pudlowski, the youngest of three sons, in Vilna, AB. The family moved to a farm northeast of Daysland, and the boys attended school in Bruce.
Allan worked off the farm for the first few years after graduation, and then in 1964, bought his own farm northeast of Daysland, AB. Brother Peter farmed the parent’s farm nearby, and the two brothers would often assist one another with many farm tasks.
In the spring of 1969, Allan attended a church service in Daysland, where he saw a young lady, Maria, visiting from Poland. Love at first sight led to a date for an ice cream cone, and a marriage on August 2, 1969. The couple was married for 53 years and were blessed with two sons, Greg and Gerry.
The family operated a mixed farm for 31 years. Life was busy but rewarding. Many friends were made. Allan played the organ at Polska for 25 years, and later, sang in the choir for special feasts in Daysland.
Allan and Maria moved to Camrose in 2000. Wanting to remain busy, Allan worked for Shadow Ridge Homes for 19 years.
Left to cherish his memory are his wife Mary; his sons Greg Pudlowski (Kim Dueck) of Edmonton and Gerry Pudlowski of Camrose; and granddaughter Hailey Marie.
Allan was predeceased by his parents Michael and Alexandra Pudlowski; and brothers Edward and Peter.
A Funeral Mass was held at 11:00 a.m., Tuesday, September 27, 2022 from the St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church, 3605 50 St Camrose with celebrant Father Kris Schmidt.
