'Friends Not Forgotten'   
 Obituary 

Steve joined the Force in St. Boniface, MB in 1949. After training in 'Depot' and at 'N' Division, he was transferred to the Drug Squad at Vancouver, BC. Steve served in the Drug Squad at Fairmont Barracks for 25 years. He retired on January 13, 1970.

After retirement he became a Stock Broker for a short period of time.  He then joined Insurance Crime Prevention Bureau as an insurance fraud and arson investigator. At the time of his retirement from ICPB, he was Chief Special Agent. 

Steve was a Life Member of the RCMP Veterans, Vancouver Division.  His family have requested an Honour Guard.  

For condolences, contact his daughter Diana Bunyk at dianabunyk@telus.net or 604-434-2500. A tribute to Steve’s service in the Force has been published and he was able to read it just prior to passing. To see the tribute, please visit the following website. http://www.rcmpveteransvancouver.com/ssgt-steve-bunyk./   

SSM John A. Buis was a friend of Steve and he visited Steve just prior to him passing away. Recently, John told me that Steve Bunyk was...'a good, solid police officer and a very proud member of the RCMP'. 

(Compliments such as these are good enough for me... JJH).
