In 1979, he moved back to Saskatchewan where he lived in the Melfort and Humboldt areas. While in Humboldt he met and married Anne Karasiuk and subsequently moved to Tway. Anne鈥檚 family adopted him and they were his family for the last 27 years. Anne and Maurice loved to travel in Northern Saskatchewan to camp, fish and pick blueberries. They enjoyed 小蓝视频 on cruises with Lawrence and Barb Karasiuk. When Maurice and Anne鈥檚 health began to fail, they had to leave their many beloved gardens in Tway and move to Saskatoon.
