264 Surnames:
Coming to a new country and not being able to speak the language can create huge difficulties. One of those difficulties is the correct spelling of names on official documents. I have gone through documents of marriage, baptism, homestead applications and death certificates. These are the surnames that appear for Alex Yacyshen on those documents as provided by Sharon Protz (Yacyshen):
Yacyshyn (1902); Jacyszyn (1902); Yaceson (1905); Yacyshen (1908); and Yacyszyn (1916).
The death certificate of Mike Yacyshen who died on or about the 15th day of October, 1913 at Oak River, Manitoba and that Alex Yacyshen will be responsible for Mike Yacyshen's debt and property. Signed by the Clerk of the Surrogate Court of the Judical District of Wynyard.
Based on this information, I will use the surname of Yacyshen for all of Alex's children and then change the surname spelling based on obituaries or other information.

265 The family of Lorne Kenneth Gazdewich of Hyas, SK, is saddened to announce his sudden passing on January 19, 2024, at the age of 74 years.
Lorne was born on June 4, 1949, the second of nine children, to Stephen and Nettie (Anastasia) Gazdewich in Canora, SK.
Lorne grew up on the family farm south of the highway between Hyas and Norquay and attended school at Ulric, Moss Lake and Hyas. Over the years he shared stories of the naughty, but innocent, pranks he played alongside his peers when he was school age. He left school in his high school years to help out on the family farm. In his early adult years, he worked in construction and helped build many roads in the area. He also became acquainted with truck driving and continued to do some farming.
Lorne married Marlene Zinchuk on June 30, 1973. They moved to The Pas, MB, in 1975 where they began their trucking company, L&M Gazdewich Trucking. While Marlene worked a variety of jobs, Lorne continued to operate the trucking company with the help of his loving wife’s assistance. In 1981, they welcomed their daughter, Michelle, into the world. In the late 1980s, Lorne and Marlene built and managed a Goodyear tire dealership that they ran together called, Lomac Enterprises, while continuing to operate the trucking company. In 1994, they had the opportunity to follow their dream and move to British Columbia. They sold their tire business and home and headed west soon afterward. They settled in Salmon Arm, BC, and built a home there with a beautiful view that they hoped to someday retire in. Lorne continued to drive truck and operate heavy duty equipment in several different capacities in BC while also spending time driving his own semi back in Manitoba. Tragically, Marlene passed away in 2002, in a semi accident that Lorne was involved in as well. Lorne continued to work and spend time with companions in BC until he had a stroke in 2008. Shortly afterward, he moved back to the prairies to be near family. He reconnected with Sharon McDuff, who he had known from his years in The Pas. Sharon and her late husband had been friends with Lorne and Marlene. Lorne and Sharon established a hobby farm south of Hyas where they lived together for the next 14 years. After moving back to Saskatchewan, Lorne worked for Broda, drove grain truck for several farmers, and, most recently, served as a councillor for the RM of Keys. Sadly, Sharon passed away in November 2023 after a short fight with cancer. Lorne’s unexpected passing occurred exactly two months after Sharon’s. As strong and mighty as he was for so many years, his heart likely could not take such heartbreak any longer.
Aside from the people and occupation he loved, he also enjoyed a variety of activities, most of which were outdoor. Lorne loved to fish, boat, camp, cook, and play cards. When he lived in BC, he was an avid golfer as well. Although Lorne enjoyed vacations to Hawaii, Las Vegas, and the Bahamas, he was more content to go on road trips near and far across Canada and the United States. In his later years, he kept himself busy making homemade wine, breeding rabbits and pigs, and caring for his sea buckthorn orchard. Lorne was unapologetically proud of his daughter and her family and treasured being a Gido. He made every possible attempt to attend birthday parties, dance recitals, piano recitals, baseball and hockey games for his grandchildren.
Lorne is survived by his daughter – Michelle, son-in-law – Michael, and grandchildren – Steven, Boston, Silas, and Asher Guillet. He is also survived by: his brothers – Brent Gazdewich and Delwyn (Marilyn) Gazdewich; his sisters – Cori (Ken) Wade, Cindee (Wally) Danielson, Colleen Gazdewich, and Clarissa (Dwayne) Mydonick; his brothers-in-law – Lorne Zinchuk and Eddie (Carol) Balyski; his sister-in-law – Lydia Dzaman; Sharon’s family – Carrie (Noel), Stacy (Todd), Brent (Susanne); Halie (Jake), Thomas (Sarah) & their children, and Elizabeth, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
He was preceded in death by: the first love of his life, his wife – Marlene, the last love of his life, his common-law partner – Sharon, his parents – Stephen and Nettie Gazdewich, his parents-in-law – Harry and Mary Zinchuk, his brothers – Tim Gazdewich and Gerald Gazdewich, his brothers-in-law – Barry Danielson, Lawrence Wayde, and Dmytro Dzaman, his sister-in-law – Marlene Gazdewich, his nieces – Melanie Zinchuk, Cheryl Wayde, and Darlene Fullawka and his great-nephew – Matthew Fullawka.
A public viewing will be held from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, on Sunday, January 28, 2024, and Funeral services at 11:00 am on Monday, January 29, 2024, both from the Chapel of Leson’s Funeral Home in Canora with Laura Dahl officiating. Interment will follow at the Canora Cemetery.
Those wishing to make expressions of sympathy may make donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada, as tokens of remembrance, in memory of Lorne Gazdewich.

266 The research has been done on the base of Greek Catholic and Roman Catholic Registers of the village of Hrymaylivka. The documents are:
Roman Catholic:
Lviv archives: registrations of births, marriages and deaths 1816-1901.
Radekhiv Registry Office: registrations of births, marriages and deaths 1901-1942.
Greek Catholic:
Lviv archives: registrations of births 1797-1865, marriages and deaths 1835-1865.
Radekhiv Registry Office: registrations of births, marriages and deaths 1866-1942.
Although there are chronological limits of the Registers, documents of some years are not available, especially Greek Catholic registrations of 1836, 1840, 1844, 1856, 1864, 1877, 1913- 1921 etc.
They wrote Greek Catholic Registers in Latin until 1912. Roman Catholic Registers are all Latin. So, I will write names until 1912 according to Ukrainian transcription and original names in brackets.
Huliayets family was only Greek Catholic. Members of Mamchur family were Roman Catholics. Roman Catholics are red in the text. 
Huliayets, Illia (I1028)
 
267 They were married on July 15, 1928. Kanzan being very fond of Anna, could not attend the ceremony, but came beforehand with his mother who was from Winnipeg. She sang wedding songs and they presented Anna with a gift of two towels, six bowls and spoons. Trotz, Anna (I1555)

270 Uncertain information:
It is known from the research that Yatsyshyn family lived in the building No 6 in Skala Stara. I should mention that Anastasia Yatsyshyn died 24.03.1881 in that building. She was 43 years old (so she was born in 1838). There is no more information about her. She could be a daughter to Vasyl and Ahaphia, could she? Unfortunately, there are no Registers of the previous period to confirm/disprove it.

272 Victor Z. Kindratsky passed away peacefully on January 5, 2021 in Abbotsford, BC with all 3 of his children present, at the age of 92.
He was born on the family homestead in Saskatchewan, Section 3, Township 32, Range 3, W2nd, near Mohela on February 21, 1928. In 1947, when there was a shortage of school teachers in Saskatchewan, he went to Moose Jaw Normal School (Teacher’s Collage) and got his teaching certificate. After 1 year though, he decided teaching wasn’t for him. He also worked his way up to Manager at the Monarch Lumber Co. in Canora, SK, but left when he was accepted to school for Radio Operator in Vancouver, BC with the Federal Dept of Transport.

Victor had many adventures while working as a Radio Operator up North in places such as Snag, YK, and North of Resolute Bay, NWT. It was here that he discovered his love for curling and participated in many Bonspeils in Whitehorse, Dawson City and Fairbanks, Alaska to name a few. His work with Transport Canada had him and his family transferred to Gander, Nfld, and then across the country to Abbotsford, BC where he settled for the last 47 years.

He married Alyne Bowzowsky in 1967 and was married for 35 years until her passing in 2002. After a long career in Management with Transport Canada, Vic retired in 1989 with the goal of being retired for the same length of time as he had worked with them. Dad loved telling a good story, curling, golfing, working with wood and making many wonderful pieces, cooking, and baking for his kids and grandkids, and travelling back to the prairies to visit family. He also loved playing cards (65) and taking on family and friends in Crib for $1.

Victor is survived by his sisters Ellie Kilmister, Vicky Tanton, Evelyn Banks, brother Nestor Kindratsky, and sister-in-law Sandra Pollard. He leaves his children, son Kerry (Jana), daughter Marla (Bruce) and son Daryl (Christina) as well as grandchildren Michael, Caitlin (Sam), Kiera and Zac and one great-grandchild, Niko. He is also remembered by many wonderful nieces, nephews and friends. Everyone is asked to celebrate Dad’s life in their own way but raising a glass of their favourite drink in his memory would be quite appropriate.

A donation to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated in lieu of flowers

273 VII. Line of Nick Panagabko, of Benito, Manitoba, and Norquay, Saskatchewan
1. ____ Panagabko, apparently of Kajana, Galicia, where his son Nick was born in 1896. Known issue:
Anna Panagabko, born 1893-94 (by calculation), 2 April 1956, aged 62; married John Panagabko (see Line VI above).
2Nick Panagabko, born 11 December 1896.
2. Nick Panagabko, born 11 December 1896, alive in 1979 (when he celebrated his 60th wedding anniversary). According to the local history of Norquay, Saskatchewan, “Nick Panagabko was born on December 11, 1896, in Kajana, a village in Austria. As a very young man, only 17, he came to Canada in 1913, to join his sister and brother-in-law who had arrived in the new land three years previously. His first Canadian job was in a harness and shoe repair shop in Toronto…. In 1916 … he arrived in Benito, Manitoba, and started a shoe repair shop.”[78] It will be seen that this account matches that of his sister Anna (Panagabko) Panagabko in Line VI above. He married 10 October 1919, Mary Hrabarchuk, of Benito, born ca. 1903, died 2 November 1981 at Norquay, daughter of John Hrabarchuk and Mehalena ____.[79] They had five children, for whom see the local history of Norquay. This work states that their son Edwin “played hockey in the national teams,” and we presume he was identical with Edwin Arnold (“Eddie”) Panagabko, born 17 May 1934 at Norquay, died 18 January 1979 at San Mateo, California, a professional ice hockey player who played 29 games in the National Hockey League, and later played with the Boston Bruins.[80]

On Jan.1, 1945 he boarded the ship called Ile de France and sailed to Glasgow, Scotland. He was stationed in England, France, Holland, and Germany. In Germany he belonged to the Lake Superior Regiment then the Royal Winnipeg Rifles as a Rifleman. He was awarded the France and Germany Star and was discharged on June 3, 1946.

277 With heavy hearts, but a lifetime of precious moments, the family of the late Bonnie Guliak announce the passing of their beloved husband, dad and grandfather. Surrounded by family, Bonnie passed away peacefully at the Regina General Hospital on Tuesday, October 20, 2020, at the age of 83 years.
Ben ‘Bonnie’ Guliak was born March 18, 1937, to John and Elsie (nee Ochitwa) Guliak, in the Norquay District, SK. He attended and received his education from Westerland School. During his youth, he helped on the farm with the crops, raised cattle and was an avid horseman. He also worked for Kowal Bros garage, as a mechanic.
In 1965, Bonnie was united in marriage to Ophelia Zawislak. Together, they were blessed with and raised four daughters: Kimberly, Lisa, Shauna and Shelby.
In his younger years, in his spare time, he enjoyed hunting, fishing, curling, playing cards and going to Bingo. He was always selling tickets for the different organizations in town.
For many years and until his retirement, Bonnie worked for the Town of Norquay and accepted the position of Town Foreman. Additionally, he dedicated his time as a volunteer fire fighter. After his retirement, he helped at Galay's and Corner Gas.
Bonnie was known by everyone. He had friends - young and old - from Norquay and many surrounding areas. His passion was people. He would chat with anyone and everyone. Thus, he greatly enjoyed his daily coffee and visit with friends at Corner Gas and The Whistle Stop.
Known for his charismatic personality, his ability to befriend and communicate with anyone, and the way he made people feel comfortable around him, Bonnie will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him. May anyone who was a part of Bonnie’s life consider themselves an honourary pall bearer and go forth carrying on his friendly natured legacy.
Bonnie was predeceased by his parents, John and Elsie; his brother, Steve; and parents-in-law, Frank and Lena Zawislak.
He is survived by his wife, Ophelia; daughters: Kim (Greg), Lisa, Shauna (Dan), and Shelby; grandchildren: Dasha Guliak, Kane Charnstrom, and Wyatt Maclean; and his sister, Doreen; as well as his extended family and many friends.

A Private Family Memorial Mass will be celebrated at St. Thomas Roman Catholic Church, Norquay, SK, with Rev. Fr. Michal Pajak, OMI, as Celebrant. Committal will take place at a later date.

278 With sadness in our hearts, we announce the peaceful passing of Walter Adams at the Village of Smith Creek on November 28, 2016.
Walter was born on December 21, 1916 at Ft. Pelly, Saskatchewan to Michelina (Hrabchuk) and Joseph Adams. As a young lad, Walter attended Grantsburg School, near Norquay Saskatchewan. On November 7, 1943, he married his soul mate, Anne Lozinski at the Holy Assumption Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Maybridge, Sask. Together they set up a loving farm home in Norquay. In 1980 they sold their farm and moved to the Okanagan. In his retirement years, Walter enjoyed tending to his garden and flower filled yard. Winters were spent crocheting tablecloths, afghans and scarves. He also dabbled in needlepoint and helped Anne quilt. There was time for vacations to Alaska, the Maritimes, and trips with the Westside Seniors. Every fall they traveled to the prairies to enjoy visiting family and friends. A highlight was a trip through Europe to visit relatives in Poland. The Ukrainian Orthodox faith was very important to him. He was an active member of St. Peter and Paul Orthodox Church in Norquay and later in Kelowna. He ensured his children were familiar with the rich Ukrainian heritage. He loved to dance and once played the violin in a band. Walter was always an avid Toronto Maple Leafs fan. On his 80th birthday he enjoyed a trip with son Murray to watch the Maple Leafs play in Toronto.

Walter was a talented, innovative man who led an amazing full life. There wasn’t anything he couldn’t fix, repair or build from scratch. He will be fondly remembered for his quiet strength, guidance, support, and devotion to his family.

He was predeceased by his parents, sister: Mary and brothers: Steve, Peter, Frank and Mike. Walter leaves treasured memories for daughter Eloise (Harv) Grummett of West Kelowna, daughter Corinne (Tyson) Hepburn and son Murray (Tara) Adams of Calgary, brother John of Edmonton and Carl (Ruth) of Vernon.

Our deepest gratitude goes to the staff of the Village of Smith Creek who tried to make his last years enjoyable and comfortable. A special thank you goes to Marilyn and Gisela who brought so much joy and comfort to Dad this past year.

Irene was born July 5, 1930 to William and Anna Sydor. She attended Tartakiw and Kolomyja public schools and Grandview High School. In 1949, she left for Toronto where she was employed for one year in a sportswear sewing factory. Irene married Walter J. Maksymetz on July 27th, 1950 in Gilbert Plains. They then returned to Toronto for a brief period. In 1951, Irene and Walter bought their first family farm in the Gilbert Plains Municipality. Their successful grain farming career spanned over 40 years taking them to retirement in 1991 and their move to Dauphin, Manitoba. After Walter's passing, Irene remained in her home in Dauphin until the spring of 2017, when she moved to Winnipeg to be closer to her family.

Nothing made Mom/Baba more proud than to see her children and grandchildren learn and succeed through hard work and determination. Her greatest joy were her grandchildren and great-grandson and she beamed with pride and happiness during their visits.

Irene served on the boards of the Veselka Dance Club in Gilbert Plains and St. Michael's Ukrainian Catholic Church in Venlaw, and was a member of the Ukrainian Catholic Women's League. She was avid bowler and enjoyed curling. She keenly enjoyed watching baseball and curling as armchair sports.

The circle of family and friends extended near and far. Irene and Walter were host to many great gatherings at the farm. Entertaining was also a pleasure in her retirement years and the door was always open to happily share her wonderful baking, cooking, preserves and of course her home-made Kubasa. Irene enjoyed gardening, sewing, knitting, crafting, picking wild mushrooms - pidpenky, a friendly game of cards, keeping up with current events and sharing a joke.

During retirement, Irene and Walter traveled to England, Cuba, Bahamas, Australia, New Zealand, Alaska, Ukraine and from coast to coast in North America. The trips to Ukraine were especially memorable having being able to strengthen the ties and visit with family.

Left to cherish her memory are her daughters, Brenda (Fr. Gregory Mielnik) and Cheryl (Kevin Nichols); her nine grandchildren Kathryn (Thomas Siozos), Pam (Morgan Lekstrom), Matthew and Jessica Johnson, Danylo and Jacob Mielnik, Blake, Eric and Lauren Nichols: and great-grandson Alexander Siozos; and son-in-law Terry Johnson. She is also survived by her sisters: Shirley (the late William Choma), Donna (Orest Romaniuk)and Jeanette (Gordon Clyde) and sister-in-law Adeline (Mike Solypa) and as well as many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Irene was predeceased by her loving husband Walter J. (2003), daughter Connie (2011), parents William and Anna Sydor, sister Walda and brother Walter.

Donations in memory of Irene may be made to a charity of one's choice.

If Roses grow in Heaven
Lord, please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.

Tell her that I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.

Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.



Vichnaya Pamyat - Memory Eternal!
