Wes lived most of his life in the Kamsack, Canora and Yorkton areas, joining the CN Railroad as a young man. He began as a brakeman and worked his way up to an engineer. Wes had a close bond with both of his daughters, making many trips to BC to spend time with his grandkids Madelyn and Alec. Wes loved to share stories and will be remembered for his quick, infectious smile and readiness to lend a hand. Throughout his life and especially after retirement, he enjoyed spending time with his daughter Rhonda and many friends playing cards and fishing. He could often be seen riding the Tryke at all the local Shriner Parades, hitting eighteen holes on the golf course or kicking up his heels in a good Ukrainian polka.
Predeceased by brothers Ernie & Ed Supena, Wes is survived by his two daughters: Rhonda Rosset of Kamsack; Sherry (John) Martin of Pitt Meadows, BC; grandchildren Madelyn and Alec. Also a sister, Evelyn Start of Maple Ridge, BC. He will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by all those whose lives he touched.
