NORA'S OBITUARY
: Nora Lukey, loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, friend, gardener, Ukrainian chef - passed away peacefully on August 21st, 2011, at the Regina General Hospital, at the age of 82 years. Nora was born July 1st, 1929, in Canora, SK to Wasyl and Mary Waselyshen (Soltys). Living on a farm most of her life, Nora learned that the only way to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. She instilled this work ethic in her seven children and taught them that family and friends are more important than any material possessions. Nora lived a simple life, always putting others first and never wasting or taking anything for granted. She continuously kept busy, whether gardening, cooking, canning, baking, crocheting, quilting, cleaning, playing bingo, cheering on the Toronto Blue Jays or taking care of family and friends. As an active member of Norquays Ukrainian Church, Nora was a devout Catholic, always lending a hand to help her church members. She was incredibly patient, kind, loving and gentle. Anytime you visited Nora you always left with a full stomach, a trunk full of borscht, perogies, cabbage rolls, her signature buns and a smile. Nora always looked forward to the next visit at home or going to her childrens places. She packed lightly, taking only one duffel bag and her famous, hand-written Travelling Cookbook. Trips were frequent yet sometimes brief as gardening was her passion and also required her TLC. During Noras many adventures, she carried along a sense of humour that made everyone around her laugh, including herself. Nora never complained and her little laugh and magic twinkle in the eye just made everything okay no matter the situation. One day prior to her passing, family members asked if she could pray for anything right now, what would it be? Nora replied, I pray for my family to be healthy and safe. Nora defied medical odds numerous times with her positive and joyful outlook on life. Doctors described her rehabilitation following a major heart attack 13 years ago as a miracle. Those that knew Nora were not surprised by her ability to overcome insurmountable challenges. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her. Nora is predeceased by her husband Michael Lukey; parents Wasyl Waselyshen and Mary (Soltys); sister Vicki Wiwchar; and brother-in-law Peter Iluk. Her memory will live on forever through her children Donald (Ruth) Lukey; Ernie (Sonja) Lukey; Margaret (Elmer) Matisho; Purnell (Linda) Lukey; Marie (Randy) Griffiths; Patrick (Joann) Lukey; Michelle (Reg) Downs; 43 grandchildren/great grandchildren; sister Ann Iluk; brother Mike (Marie) Waselyshen; brother-in-law Orest Wiwchar; and many nieces and nephews. The Prayer Service was held on August 25th, 2011 at 7 P.M. at the Chapel of Lesons Funeral Home, Canora. The Funeral Liturgy was held on August 26th, 2011 at 10 A.M. at Sacred Heart Ukrainian Catholic Church, Norquay, SK, with Rev. Fr. Basil Malowany officiating. Interment followed at the St. Demetrius Ukrainian Catholic Cemetery, southwest of Norquay, SK.
