Date of Death: July 1, 2017

It is with heavy hearts that the Zagrodney family announces the tragic and sudden passing of their 12-year-old son, Trendon, on Saturday, July 1, 2017, with his family by his side.
Trendon was a fun-loving, carefree boy who wanted to succeed at everything he did. He loved sports and wanted to play or try every sport possible. He was always the smallest boy in the game, but his heart, will and determination allowed him to play with boys much bigger than he was. That same heart, will and determination inspired other children, as well as parents.
Trendon’s personality was also very contagious. He was always happy and smiling, and that always made everyone around him do the same. Trendon was also a great role model for his younger brothers, and he gave them a lot of inspiration to try the same things that he had.
Trendon is survived by his parents Michael and Sherra Zagrodney, brothers Timothan and Trevin, grandparents Reg and Nonah Mohr and Robert and Dora Zagrodney, great-grandparents, and many aunts, uncles and cousins.
A celebration of Trendon’s life will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, July 7, 2017, at St. Henry’s Roman Catholic Church, located at 729 Main St. in Melville, SK. There will also be a prayer vigil Thursday evening at 7:00, also at St. Henry’s Church. Trendon will be laid to rest in St. Henry’s Parish Cemetery.
Trendon’s favourite sports teams were the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Saskatchewan Roughriders, and his favourite colour was red. The family would love for anyone attending the celebration to wear any of those items.
In lieu of flowers or gifts, Trendon’s family requests that donations be made to the Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation, Saskatoon, The Asthma Society of Canada or the Allergy/Asthma Information Association (AAIA). Arrangements were entrusted to Matthews Funeral
Home.
