Our heartfelt condolences and sympathy on the loss of Baba.
I, and my family, will feel the loss of ‘Baba’ greatly. She made each of feel special and loved.
With her words, her gestures, her smiles, her hugs and laughter, this capable, hardworking woman always made me feel strong and inspired to keep going when things got tough. This amazing and creative baker always made me feel like my baking was the best she had ever tasted. This faithful, Godly, prayer warrior always strengthened my faith and resolve to trust in God. This loving, forgiving and wise matriarch always inspired me to want to be a more loving and forgiving person. Baba always seemed to see only the good in each one of us, and somehow, we were able to see it in ourselves and each other more clearly because of her.
Although we only met Baba in the later years of her life, and we did not speak Ukrainian, her beautiful spirit, love for God and others, zest for life, strength, determination, compassion, empathy, generosity, humility, service, wisdom and true class was so clearly demonstrated and communicated that she will be sorely missed, and always loved.
It is said that nobody will remember what you told them, only how you made them feel; Baba made us feel precious and special to her, and in doing so, she was unspeakably special and precious to us.
Memory Eternal Baba. We will always love you.
Leah, Colin and Samuel
