Obituary of HELEN SYROWAY
HELEN SYROWAY
(nee HUMENY)
With profound sadness, we announce the peaceful passing of Helen Syroway, age
93, on January 8, 2014 at Holy Family Home very soon after husband of 73 years, Mike,
passed away December 16, 2013.
Loving mother of daughter Doreen (Wayne) Buzahora, devoted grandmother of
Marnie (Ryan) Sullivan, Brent (Beth) Buzahora; loving great grandmother of Nathan and
Rowan Sullivan; Brodin and Tanner Buzahora. Fondly remembered by sisters-in-law
Tina Jackson, Jean Pomarenski, Pauline Syrowy and brother-in-law Peter Syrowy,
numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
Mom was predeceased by husband Mike, parents Peter and Nastia, brothers Nick,
Dmytro and wife Eileen, sister Teenie and husband Eddie, four brothers-in-law and one
sister-in-law.
Born 1920 in Fraserwood, she married Mike Syroway in 1940 and lived there until
moving to Winnipeg in 1960. Mom worked hard on their small farm, was a very loving
person, caring, quiet and was especially devoted to her family. She was a fantastic cook
and always delighted in visits from her grandchildren and later great grandchildren. She
loved playing bingo at St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Church for over 36 years.
We are grateful to Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate, doctors, all nurses, health care
aides, social workers, Ladies Auxiliary and all other wonderful staff at Holy Family
Home for the compassion and care given to Mom over the past two years. Special thank
you to Sr. Charlene, Dr. Wilson, Dr. Andrea Babick and Donna Bryck.
