My father, Fabian 'Fabe' Stephen Pavelick was born on May 2, 1927 in Kenaston, Saskatchewan. Our family is sad to announce that he passed away peacefully in his sleep on Tuesday, June 1, 2010 at 7:45am at the age of 83. After his career with the RCMP, he had retired to Sidney, British Columbia in 1986.

Dad's Reg.# was 16752. He was posted to many 'E' Div (BC) locations such as Qualicum, Victoria, Vancouver, Kamloops and Nelson BC. Later, Dad was in Charge of Traffic for 'D' Div. based out of Winnipeg from 1971-1986. He retired as a Staff Sergeant.

He married our Mom (Betty) on December 28, 1957 and their three children are Stephen, Michael and Suzanne Pavelick.
