<div itemprop="description">It is with great sadness and heavy hearts we announce the passing of Maurice (Moe) Fosty, beloved husband and father on July 28, 2016 at the age of 73. <br> <br>Maurice passed away at the Victoria Hospital after a brief but courageous battle with cancer, with his family by his side. Left to forever cherish his memory is the love of his life and wife of 51 years Olga, son Kevin (Chavon), daughter Lisa (Ryan); brothers Matt (Stella), John, Bill (Mary Lou), Eugene (Marian), and his sister-in-law Elsie, and many nieces, nephews and cousins. <br> <br>Maurice was predeceased by his parents Steve and Margaret, brother Mike, sister Anne Friend, sister-in-law Elsie Fostey and nephews Johnny and Dale Fostey. <br> <br>He was born and raised in Vita, Manitoba and moved to Winnipeg where he worked in the insurance industry. His last employer was Manitoba Public Insurance where he worked for 31 years and retired in 2007. <br> <br>Maurice was very active in sports, playing baseball in Winnipeg and in Arizona, where he and his wife spent the winter months. He also loved to curl, golf, and play volleyball. His special love was his family. Maurice and his wife enjoyed traveling throughout Canada, the US, Mexico, the Caribbean and Hawaii. <br> <br>One of his greatest joys was spending time with his children, whether it was lending a helping hand around the house, attending sporting events or just spending quality time together. <br> <br>Funeral service will be held on Thursday, August 4, 2016 at 2:00 pm at Glen Lawn Funeral Home, 455 Lagimodiere Blvd., with Very Rev. Fr. Mark Gnutel officiating. <br> <br>The family would like to thank Dr. Kim and the countless healthcare staff at the Buhler Cancer Centre and the Victoria General Hospital for their ongoing care and support. A special thank you to Dr. Mehta for his care during Maurice’s short battle with cancer. <br> <br>In lieu of flowers, a donation in Maurice’s memory may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society, Manitoba Division, 193 Sherbrook Street, R3C 2B7. <br></div>
