My family and I would like to send our deepest condolences to our cousins, Aunts & Uncles and their families and Uncle Nicks vast family. My memories of Uncle Nick & Aunty Mary will always consist of fantastic Ukrainian suppers, great stories, latest news, The Walt Disney Show, Don Messer’s Jubilee, Bonanza or Hockey Night in Canada. The fights (Eddie Shack vs John Ferguson) were always Uncle Nicks favorite. He now joins Aunty Mary and his heavenly family thus his great stories and humour will continue on. He will be greatly missed.

My family and I would like to send our deepest condolences to our cousins, Aunts, Uncles and their families to the Pankiw & Melnyk families. My memories of Uncle Nick & Aunty Mary are of visiting them often during their years on the farm. The memories of fantastic Ukrainian suppers and sharing great family and neighbourhood stories. The immigrant / pioneer stories and the latest news were always very interesting to us – the 2nd born generation of Ukrainians in Canada. The Walt Disney Show, Don Messer’s Jubilee program, Bonanza, The Beverly Hillbillies or Hockey Night in Canada games were highlights we grew accustomed to. The hockey fights (Eddie Shack vs John Ferguson) were always Uncle Nick’s favorite. He now joins Aunty Mary and his heavenly family thus his great stories and humour will continue on with them. Uncle Nick will be greatly missed.
