    • Obituary
      With great sadness, the family of the late Mildred Yacyshen announce her passing peacefully at home, surrounded by her children, in Norquay, SK, on November 24, 2022, at the age of 93 years. Mildred was born in Moose Jaw, SK, on September 16, 1929. She was the eldest of seven siblings, Deloris, Gordon, Gladys, Joan, Clifford, and her pre-deceased infant sister, Laverne. She attended school in Buffalo Hump and Norquay School Division.
      Mildred married Bill Yacyshen in 1948 and celebrated their marriage for 54 years, until his passing in 2002. Up until that time, they lived on the homestead farm, four miles south of Norquay, SK. They had 7 children, Barbara, Edward (who went to the Lord shortly after his birth), Gabriel, Sharon, Veronica, Joy and Kimberly, with extended family of 15 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
      Mildred and Bill’s faith was dedicated, and they provided the family with Catholic religion and practice. Mildred always had a wonderful vegetable garden that nourished the family and shared with friends. She always maintained a picturesque flower garden in the front yard as well. Learning to sew using a treadle sewing machine, offered a way to clothe her children in beautiful things. She took educational classes in arts and woodwork, worked at the Norquay Bakery, and had a group of friends she quilted with. Mildred donated time with the Ladies Church group, where she helped with fundraisers, bake sales, and church events. Socializing with the ladies was something she cherished.
      In 2002, she moved into Norquay, where she found a lovely community and wonderful mix of neighbors. She appreciated Norquay’s hospitality and friendly town services, grocery, pharmacy, and well as fresh egg delivery to her doorstep. Neighborly snow removal and lawn care were also added to her list. Friendly Home Care services also supported her there. Her shining light will be missed dearly, as she passes from our family and community link of love and friendship.
      Everlasting memory. A Vigil of Prayer was held at 7:00 p.m., Monday, November 28, 2022, and the Funeral Liturgy celebrated at 10:00 a.m., Tuesday, November 29, 2022, both from the Sacred Heart Ukrainian Catholic Church, Norquay, SK, with Very Rev. Fr. Joakim Rac as Celebrant. Rite of Committal followed in the Holy Trinity Ukrainian Catholic Cemetery, southwest of Norquay, SK. Those wishing to make expressions of sympathy may make donations to the Holy Trinity Ukrainian Catholic Cemetery, as tokens of remembrance in memory of Mildred Yacyshen.
