One door closes….another opens….
As of March 1, 2015, Malcolm’s Printing has changed
hands and name. The time has come for me to move
onto something new in my life and let someone with
fresh enthusiasm, energy and ideas take over. My
friend Shawn Cote along with her husband Lee Pischke
and their daughter Darby will be taking over the Print
Shop. They will be known as Blue Raven Design &
Print. I know that Shawn will bring incredible vision to the business and has a lot
of great ideas. She is eager to continue serving the communities with a business
that has been an invaluable asset to the area.
For me, the time has come to move on to new things. I am not sure what the future holds for me as of yet, but I know now that I can accomplish just about anything.
Owning my own business and operating a very busy print shop has been a life
changing experience. I sincerely appreciate all of the support we received from
the community over the past eight years. I hope that you will continue to support
Shawn and Lee the way you have so kindly supported me. I cannot put a value
on the help and encouragement I have received over the years from my family
and friends. We have been truly blessed, and we are thankful to you all.

ROBERT “BOB” OLENDER
October 17, 1937 - February 28, 2015
It is with great sadness that we announce
the passing of Bob, aged 77 years of
Gypsumville, MB on February 28, 2015 at
the Lakeshore General Hospital in Ashern, MB after a brave fight with cancer.
He leaves to mourn his passing his wife
of 56 years Barbara; his three children
Karen (Rick), Carmen, Grant (Cori); his
three grandchildren Jessica (Travis),
Chance (Kurstyn) and Janelle; one great
granddaughter Grace; his siblings Bert
(Olga), June and Pat (Albert).
He is predeceased by his parents, in-laws
and grandson Tyler. In the 50’s, Bob became an electrician and worked in Elliot
Lake, Ontario before moving on. He was
employed at CFS Gypsumville, Northern
Affairs, Steep Rock Beach and Frontier
School Division. In the 60’s Bob opened
his own ski-doo shop and ran it for more
than 30 years. After retirement, Bob was
often called upon in the community for his
electrical and refrigeration skills to fix just
about anything. Bob worked hard and
played hard! His passion was flying his
airplane, going to the bush with his buddies, snowmobiling, hunting, boating,
photography, summers at the lake and
travelling. Bob will be greatly missed by
his family, friends and many acquaintances. A memorial service celebrating
Bob’s life will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, March 6, 2015 at the Gypsumville
Hall with Peter Kalden officiating. Service
will conclude at the hall with a lunch to follow. Our family would like to thank Dr.
Emadi, nurses and staff of the Lakeshore
General Hospital for the wonderful care
and support they provided. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bob’s
memory to the Lakeshore General Hospital, Palliative Care Unit, c/o Julie
Bergner, PO Box 721, Ashern, MB R0C
0E0.
