| 160 | It is with immense sadness that we announce the passing of Byron Tataryn on Tuesday, January 19th at the age of 40 years at the Red Deer Regional Hospital with his mother by his side. Born in Calgary, Alberta to Wanda Tataryn, Byron spent his formative years in Calgary, Alberta. Byron did not enjoy school at all until high school when he got involved in the High School Rodeo circuit. Of all things he had to pick bull riding as his major with a minor in bareback! Oh boy, Mom didn’t think her heart was going to survive watching Byron’s rides, but she was proud that he had found something that made him so happy. In early adulthood, Byron’s health deteriorated first with a diagnosis of schizophrenia and then shortly after with a multiple sclerosis diagnosis. Byron enjoyed painting and sketching. His drawings will hang on our walls to remind us of him every day. Since 2015, Byron had resided at the Centennial Centre in Ponoka, Alberta. His one constant complaint was the hideous flooring colour on the Paragon Unit. Byron had a dream of one day riding his own Harley Davidson motorcycle, but this was not realized with his physical limitations. Once the gates are opened for you Byron, RUN through them, your legs are working now! All the Babas will be lined up waiting for you to give you Baba kisses. I am sure that Baba Demchuk has already purchased a Harley and has it waiting for you. Jump on that bike and RIDE my son, ride! He will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by his heartbroken mother, Wanda Tataryn; stepfather, Richard Buors; brother, Dion Buors; grandmother, Judith Demchuk; uncle, Robert Tataryn; great-aunt Leanne Demchuk; and great-uncle Eldon Demchuk. Also left to mourn his loss is his large extended family, the Filipowich, Tataryn, Shykitka and Demchuk families. Byron was predeceased by his grandfather, Augustine Tataryn; great-grandparents Eugene and Marina Demchuk; Fred and Lily Tataryn; and his great-great grandmothers, Magdalena Filipowich and Theresa Shykitka. | Tataryn, Byron Lee (I4588)

After leaving pharmacy, Rod dabbled in many different fields, including home building and home renovations. Rod was also an accomplished artist and his paintings grace the walls of many of Edmonton's most prestigious golf courses. After retiring to an acreage near his hometown, Rod filled his days with building his very own private par-3 golf course on his land. He also loved to spend time with his neighbours and friends, volunteering at the community hall serving food, and playing cards. Rod's sense of humor and generosity will be deeply missed but never forgotten. | Boyko, Roderick Cornel Nicholas (I2583)

He is survived by his children and grandchildren, Rick (Gail) and Alexander of Calgary and Candice Smart (Zach) of Cincinnati; Rob of Bolton, ON; Brenda Bracken-Warwick (Ken) of Winnipeg; Karen Smee (Doug) and Calum and Moira of Winnipeg; and Bruce (Monica) and Madeline and Colin of Richmond Hill, ON and his sister, Marilyn Hewitt (Bill) of Calgary as well as numerous relations of the Bracken and Kindratsky clans.

| 163 | Jean Louise GULAYETS Obituary May 13, 1956 Edmonton, Alberta April 24, 2020 Calgary, Alberta Our darling Jean passed away on Friday, April 24, 2020 at the age of 63, from complications related to cancer. She courageously battled the disease for almost three years with profound strength and incredible resilience. Jean was always an encouraging and thoughtful woman, full of giggles and fun, especially on the dance floor when an Elvis song was playing. She was a beloved wife to Gregg for over forty-one years, inspiring role model to Tannis and Hayley and her most treasured role as adoring Gramsy, to Avyn, Estelle and Hewitt. Jean was the third of six children in her family, born May 13, 1956 in Edmonton, AB. She attended Archbishop MacDonald High School where she met her high school sweetheart, Gregg. They both went on to graduate from the University of Alberta in 1978 and after getting married that same year they began their grand adventure by moving to Calgary. Their journey continued to Adelaide, Australia in the 80s where both daughters were born. After which, they returned to Calgary followed by short stints in Aden, Yemen in the 90s then to London, England in 2011 before settling into their grandparenting roles in Calgary in 2013. Jean was passionate about golfing, curling, and running as she loved to challenge herself; but more importantly she could do these activities alongside Gregg and those she enjoyed spending time with. Jean and Gregg were avid travelers, adventuring to many places around the globe, soaking in every moment. Hawaii was always her favourite she loved the music, the people and the serenity of the islands. Jeans pride for her immediate and extended family did not go unnoticed as she was often found celebrating their activities and accomplishments. Always putting others before herself, Jean used her energy, creativity, and kindness to make a positive impact on all the lives that she touched. Jean treasured the many sisterhoods she had including Beta Sigma Phi, Mahjong groups and Dress Club. Giving back to the community was always top of mind for Jean and the Calgary Womens Emergency Shelter valued her many years of contribution. Jean always touched us with her thoughtful words and beautiful homemade cards. She reminded us to Be kind, be gentle, love one another and be an angel on earth, she truly was an angel on earth and will continue to be from the heavens with her newfound wings. Jean is survived by her husband Gregg Gulayets, daughters, Tannis (David) Boisjolie and Hayley Gulayets; and grandchildren, Avyn, Estelle and Hewitt Boisjolie. She is also survived by her parents, Harold and Bernice Forss; her mother-in-law, Mary Anne Gulayets, siblings, Carol (Andrew) Raczynski, Dorothy (Bob) Anderson, Shelley Whittington, Heather Bzdell and T.D. (Monica) Forss; as well as many extended relatives on both sides of the family. Jean was predeceased by her father-in-law, John Gulayets, and her brother-in-law, Alan Bzdell.

Joseph was thrilled when Ron and Debbi became parents to 3 beautiful children; Kyle, Delayne and Riley.

The grandchildren and great grandchild will always hold their Gido dear to them and treasure the memory of their Gido captured in conversations and priceless photos of special moments on their lives.

| 172 | KACHUR, Mary (nee Lukey, nee Dziaduck) of Canora Gateway Lodge, formerly of Yorkton, passed peacefully to Eternal Rest on Feb. 25, 2022 at the age of 99. She was predeceased by her parents Alec & Lena (Wasylkiw) Dziaduck , first husband Bill Lukey (Norquay), their beloved sons David Bernard Lukey and Cornell Daniel Lukey, and second husband Matt Kachur (Churchbridge). She was also predeceased by all her younger siblings and their spouses: Jean (Steve) Dennis; Anton (Pauline) Dziaduck); Olga (Morris) Haluik; Steve (Betty) Powers-Dziaduck; along with niece Sharon Dennis, nephew Garrett Dziaduck, and great-niece Daphne (Haluik) Schmidt. She is survived by sisters-in-law: Sister Carmela Lukey (SSMI), Nina Korchinski, and Elizabeth Anaka; several nieces and nephews; and her daughter, Phyllis Lukey of Regina. Mary was born in 1922 in the Buchanan area to Ukrainian immigrant parents. She was the eldest of five children. There were many challenges to overcome growing up in the 20's and the 30's including the unexpected passing of her father in 1936. She loved going to school and visiting with the neighbours whenever they could get together. After Gr. 8, she did what she could to help look after the now four younger children including newborn baby brother Steve. She would help her Mom with the garden and the chores and all that went into pioneer life. That included helping her Mom and her Grandparents build a two-room log house that stands to this day. All of this showed her how to be fiercely independent and resourceful throughout her long life. She married Bill Lukey in 1945, after having worked for the Andrew Lukey family for several years. They had a small farm outside of Norquay, while still helping out Bill's father's family. Throughout these years she was steady and steadfast in spirit, overcoming the challenges of basic farm life. She did what needed to be done. Sundays were reserved for rest and for visiting with the relatives who lived in the area. She displayed her courage through Bill's illness and passing in 1970, tragically followed shortly by their son David (1972) and a bit later by Cornell (1977). She moved to Yorkton where she met Matt Kachur and then moved to Churchbridge. She and Matt used to enjoy dancing, camping, fishing, visiting with friends, attending Church in Yorkton, and travelling to Ontario and B.C. to see his sisters. Even trips to The Pas and to Regina were lots of fun for them, although she saw it as her duty to reorganize her daughter's yard and house whenever the opportunity arose while Phyllis was at work! After Matt's passing, Mary moved back to Yorkton in 1995 where she resided independently, doing “her own thing, in her own wayâ€, until failing health forced the move to long term care. Gardening and growing flowers were a passion for her and she could hardly wait until spring arrived so that she could get started on all of that. She loved Ukrainian music, particularly the Christmas Carols, along with the traditions of being Ukrainian Catholic. Christmas and Easter were special times in her household. Her life was long and her deep faith in God helped carry her through. Ð’Ñ–Ñ‡Ð½Ð°Ñ Ð¿Ð°Ð¼'ÑÑ‚ÑŒ Vichnaya Pamyat! Memory Eternal! The family would like to sincerely thank all those who helped Mary through the difficult times in her long life, but especially through the time since January 2020 when she was first resident at Canora Gateway Lodge after swift and significant health complications arose. For those wishing, donations in her memory may be made to the Canora Gateway Lodge Auxiliary. | Dziaduck, Mary (I3094)

After completing his education, he obtained employment with the CN railway in Northern Ontario from 1936-1942. Following this, he enlisted in the army and was stationed outside of Winnipeg. In January 1944, he shipped out and was stationed in England, France, Holland and Germany. He was discharged in the fall of 1946 and returned to Winnipeg and then came home. One of William’s favourite memories was seeing his family again after all of the years he was away. It’s a memory he would never forget. When he drove into the family farm, Paul and Metro came running out to see who had arrived. They stopped in their tracks, as they did not recognize him. They ran back into the house to get their mom. When she came out it brought tears to his eyes and the memory of that happy reunion continued to bring tears to his every time he retold this story. Paul and Metro were sent to get dad from the field as work was done for the day and all the neighbours came over for a celebration. After the war, William courted Anne Olenick and they were married on July 25, 1947 and were blessed with four children: Charles, Jacalyn, Dale and David. They farmed in the Norquay area. William also worked for the RM of Keys and eventually he and Anne even opened up a restaurant. In 1950, William started with the Sask Wheat Pool as a grain buyer and retired from this position in 1983 after 33 years with the company. William loved to fish and every summer he bundled the family up and headed to the lake. He also enjoyed picking mushrooms and berries and was very proud of his braided garlic skeins. He was known to give them out to other fellow garlic lovers. William was actively involved with the church and was a member of the Knights of Columbus as well as the Royal Canadian Legion, Norquay Branch, and a member of the N.I.C.E. Centre where William and Anne spent a few afternoons each week visiting with friends and playing cards. Until the last few weeks, William was active in the community and fortunate to be able to enjoy life to the fullest. He had a great sense of humour and loved to share a joke. This continued even during his recent health issues. When asked if he would change anything if he could live his life over again, he said he wouldn’t change a thing - he had no regrets. He said even though there were hard times, there were many happy times as well. William and Anne loved and welcomed company and loved spending time with their family. He will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him. William was predeceased by his parents, John and Anastasia; his son, Charles; siblings: Steve, Paul, Anne, Mary, Elizabeth and Helen; and in infancy, his granddaughter, Rhiannna Polowich. He is survived by his loving wife of 67 years, Anne; his daughter, Jacalyn (Brian) Polowich of Norquay and their children: Lindsay (David Haack), Kirsten, Duran, Dylan (Alanna Kazakoff); son, Dale (Janie) and their children: Daniel, Katherine, Juliane and Thomas; son, David (Heather) and their children: Logan and Larissa; grandson, Leslie and his children: Lauren and Andrew and granddaughter, Leanne and her children: Isabelle and Charlie; brothers: Joe, Mike, Nick (Jane), and Metro (Nettie); sisters: Olga (Mike Cherewyk), Sophie (John), and Veronica Sikorski; as well as extended family, Melvin (Helen) Yaganiski, Betty (Steve) Markewich, and Jean (Paul) Markewich.

| 200 | MOROZ, Raymond February 28, 1934 - November 21, 2020 Raymond Moroz of Saskatoon passed away on November 21, 2020 at the age of 86. Raymond was born on February 28, 1934 in a log house west of Wishart, Saskatchewan. He was the second of six sons born to Michael and Doris (nee Wasylenko) Moroz. Raymond attended a one room country school for his grades 1-8 and then attended Wishart High for grades 9 and 10. He then attended St. Joseph's College, a boarding school in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, for his grades 11 and 12. While attending school he also worked hard helping out on the family farm. He learned to work with horses and would help with harrowing, mowing, plowing, disking and binding. Raymond's first ambition after graduating from high school was to join the RCMP. He was accepted for training, but his mother discouraged him to go into the police force. He then decided to attend the University of Saskatchewan and obtained a Science degree with a major in chemistry and biology. Raymond accepted a job at Intercontinental Packers as a Control Chemist. His mentor, Father Hrynchyshyn, saw great potential in Raymond and thought that he was wasting his talent and encouraged him to go into law school. Raymond then entered the College of Law at U of S where he studied contracts, torts and criminal law, but at the end of the year decided that law was not for him. He then took on a job at the University of Saskatchewan as a lab technician in the anatomy department where they studied hardening of the arteries. Raymond also had a great interest in construction, so he decided to enroll himself in Kelsey Institute to study carpentry taking evening classes while he continued to work. It was at this time that Raymond met the love of his life, Patricia Werbisky. They were married on June 9, 1962 at St. George's Cathedral in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. A short time after they were married Raymond entered Education at the U of S and obtained his Bachelor of Education Degree. He got his first teaching job at Holy Cross High School in Saskatoon in 1964. Even though he was a teacher, Raymond enjoyed working in the construction business during the summer months. Throughout the years, Raymond's teaching career took him and his family to Kamsack, Roblin, Manitoba and back to Saskatoon. After 25 years of teaching he retired in June 1994. Raymond was a very proud Ukrainian Catholic and practiced his faith diligently. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus for nearly 50 years. He and Patricia were faithful members of Saints Peter and Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church starting from 1956. Raymond was a firm believer that God given talents should be used to help the parish. This belief earned him many volunteer hours at his church helping in many ways. Raymond was a true family man. Together he and Patricia raised 5 children. (Terry, Laura, David, Sharon and Christine). They shared many special moments together as a family. There were always family celebrations in the house for many occasions such as birthdays, Christmas, Easter, New Year's and more. Extended family was very important to Raymond and he made sure that his children had the opportunity to visit their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins on a regular basis. One of his favourite journeys was taking his family to the farm near Wishart, Saskatchewan to visit Baba, Dido, Uncle Gordie, Aunty Elsie and their cousins. Mustus Lake in Meadow Lake Provincial Park was a special place for Raymond to take his family to relax, fish and have some fun enjoying the great outdoors. Since Raymond was a teacher, he was able to take his family on a two-month road trip from Saskatoon to Prince Edward Island twice in his lifetime. They made wonderful memories as they travelled from destination to destination. After Raymond retired, he continued his love for traveling in Canada with Patricia. The beauty of the mountains attracted them to Banff, Jasper and Lake Louise where they would enjoy hiking, sightseeing and sitting by the fire. Raymond was predeceased by his parents, Michael and Doris Moroz; his brother, Eddie; in-laws, Joseph and Catherine Werbisky and brother-in-law Gordon Carson. He will be lovingly remembered and cherished by his wife Patricia, his children; Terry Moroz, Laura (Dominic) Proctor, David (Mara-Lee) Moroz, Sharon (Brock) Blomquist and Christine (Barry) Gaudet, his grandchildren; Sabina (Braden) Paice, Tristan (Kelly) Proctor, Michael Moroz, Erin Blomquist, Sarah Blomquist, Andrew Gaudet and Matthew Gaudet, brothers; Gordon (Elsie) Moroz and Clarence Moroz, sister-in-law Phyllis Carson, and numerous nieces and nephews. Raymond's family would like to thank all the care providers at St. Paul's Hospital for their compassion and care during the last weeks of Raymond's life. Special thank you to the Spiritual Care Team at St. Paul's Hospital who looked after Raymond's spiritual needs. A Celebration of Life will be held for Raymond at a later date due to the current Covid restrictions. Memorial donations in Raymond's memory may be made to the Salvation Army.
