It is with great sadness to announce the unexpected passing of our cherished Thomas M. Hnatko who was taken from us much too soon in his 60th yr., on Sunday, August 2, 2020 at his home in Fenelon Falls, Ontario with his wife by his side.
Beloved husband of 41 years and best friend to Denise M. Hnatko, Tom is survived by his wife and their three children, Shawn Hnatko, Yvonne Hnatko and her husband Keith Hancock, Ryan Hnatko and his wife Jenn Hnatko. Grandchildren Alyssa Hnatko-Hancock, Jeslyn Hnatko-Hancock,
Ryder Joe Hnatko, Myah Hnatko, Brinley Hnatko and soon to arrive his Great Granddaughter, Everley Grace Hnatko-Hancock-Croke. Tom was above all, passionate and very proud of his family. His grandchildren were the pride and joy of his life.
Tom is also survived by his mother, Sophie Hnatko (the late Joseph Hnatko), brother Mike Hnatko and his wife Kim Hnatko, sisters Kathy Riberdy, Susan Read and Pat Dylla.
Tom will be deeply missed by his sister-in-law Sherry Johnston and his mother and father in-law Sandy & Gary Johnston who all loved and respected Tom with all their heart.
Tom will be fondly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles and many good friends.
Tom was the hardest working man that we know. His work ethic and his dedication to everything that he did was highly respected by all who crossed this amazing, wonderful man’s path but especially by his family who witnessed this every day.
In keeping with Tom’s wishes, cremation has taken place. Tom’s donation to the Trillium Gift of Life Network will give other individuals the opportunity for a longer and better quality of life.
Over the years Tom made his end of life wishes very clear to his family. Those wishes will be followed to a tee. Our close family will have a Celebration of Life where we will Celebrate the most wonderful man we know, Tom Hnatko.
For those who wish, memorial donations in Memory of Tom may be made to The Hospital for Sick Children or to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
