About DAVID PETER KRYMINSKI
September 25, 1954 - May 28, 2017

Left to cherish his memory are his daughter Lisa, son Keith, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, siblings, extended family and friends.
David was predeceased by his life partner Doris Gregoire, father Paul Sr. and mother Jean (nee Wyspinski).
David was born and raised in Winnipeg, MB. He was a studious child, teaching himself to build model airplanes from kits that he got from his aunty Lena LaPlume's grocery store. This curiousity and attention to detail would benefit him in later years as a self-taught mechanic.
After graduation from Sisler High School, he moved to northern Manitoba working at various jobs to gain work experience.
After a few years, he returned to Winnipeg and started his trucking career with Merchants Consolidated, where he worked for many years. He continued his professional driving with BFI, Paul's Hauling and eventually made the decision to run his own truck. Following this, he joined Jade Transport and worked there until his untimely passing.
David was proud of his profession, and was happiest when driving his big rig truck No. 99, which he fondly called "The Great One". Over the years, he enjoyed riding his motorcycles and exploring the highways and back roads of the country. He welcomed meeting and talking with people he met along the way. In quieter moments he taught himself to play the guitar and kept up-to-date with the latest innovations in technology and science.
Above all, he cherished special moments with his family and friends. He was honoured to be included in "A Portrait of David" exhibit at the Winnipeg Art Gallery in 1994.
"David, we miss your smile,
your laughter and warm-hearted spirit".
