In memory - Don Sawchuk
March 16, 2024 was the day we lost a great supporter of Edmonton Inline. Don Sawchuk passed away on this date.
Don Sawchuk volunteered to act as category director for the 12 Under age group. Every game night, Don and his wife Christine showed up at the rink to watch their teams and connect with the coaches and players.
The Sawchuk’s left that volunteer position only when the organization had difficulty finding a director for the 16 Under division. Don and Christine gave the same dedication to these teams as to the younger age group. It was only after Don’s work necessitated a move to Grande Prairie that they left Edmonton Inline.
The idea of dedicated volunteers was personified by Don and Christine Sawchuk.
Edmonton Inline thanks Don and Christine for their years of selfless commitment to the sport of inline here in Edmonton. Condolences to Christine as she struggles with her loss.
