We regret to advise of the death of Sapper Nestor Harry Herasymuik (Ret'd) on 1 May 2007 in Regina SK at the age of 66 years.
Nestor was born in the District of Beaverdale SK. He served three years in the Royal Canadian Engineers and retired in June 1964. Nestor married and settled in Yorkton SK where he obtained his journeyman’s certification in masonry. He and his wife moved to Fort Nelson BC in 1969 but, after working on construction projects throughout other western towns, they settled for a number of years in Melville SK where Nestor continued his masonry career. After a traffic accident, the family moved back to Yorkton and Nestor worked for the City of Yorkton. He retired in 1988 and began a love for antique refinishing and woodworking that he pursued as long as his health allowed. In 2005, he and his wife moved to Regina to be closer to their grandchildren and health services they both needed. His wife died only months before Nestor.
