    Obituary


    We are so grateful for Mom’s life, but it is with saddened hearts we announce the passing of Olga Cherewyk (nee Markewich). She was born September 3, 1922 to John and Anastasia Markewich and went to be with the Lord peacefully, with family by her side on February 22, 2020 at the age of 97.

    Olga married Mike Cherewyk on November 12, 1949. Together they made a life on the Cherewyk farm, nine miles south of Norquay, SK. Their farm was not only a grain-growing farm, but included cattle, pigs and chickens. Mom and Dad worked hard, were devoted to one another and were blessed with five children. After successfully farming for more than 30 years, Mom and Dad retired to Yorkton, SK. They enjoyed retirement together until Dad’s passing on April 13, 1999. Mom continued to live in Yorkton, until 2007, then moved to Regina to be closer to family.
