Colynda Beverley Wyatt

Colynda (AKA Mouse) was born on December 23, 1967 in Calgary, Alberta to Grant and Noreen (Davidson) Wyatt.  Our  parents parted when Colynda was 5 years old and our Mom was  remarried to Ed Roskivich in 1974.  We moved to Sparwood,  British Columbia in 1975 and in 1978 we packed up and moved to Russell, where Colynda has resided since.  

Colynda has 3 children, Cole, Levi and Abby Cusitar.  They truly gave her a lot of joy.  She was involved in their lives as much as possible and loved them with all her heart. 

Colynda worked a few different jobs throughout her life, however she found her dream job working at the vet clinic.  As many of you know, Colynda absolutely loved animals.  In her teenage years she was involved in 4-H and attended a lot of horse shows with her special horse, Lady.  She was compassionate when it came to her fur babies and was known to save a “few”.  She loved animals of all kinds. 

Colynda was also very passionate about her personal relationship with Jesus and was baptised in 2013.  She was involved in her church, which led her and Gerard to a completing a few mission trips in Mexico.  She was involved in her quilting group, bible studies and other various activities and made some very close friends.
