Obituary for
Yewko Popowich
“A thousand words won’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried. And neither can a million tears, I know because I’ve cried.”
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Yewko Popowich on August 27th, 2021, to a medical condition at the age of 46. She will be dearly missed by her sons, Masaharu and Takayoshi, parents, Hideji and Sachiko Ono; brother, Kentaro; sisters, Reeakoe and Chiharu; in-laws, Dwight and Sharon Popowich.
She will be lovingly remembered by her extended families, friends and the community, which was a huge part of her life.
The family extends a heartfelt thank you to everyone for their support and kindness. Yewko touched the lives of many families, friends, co-workers and patients wherever she went. She was a beautiful person inside and out with the biggest heart anyone could have. She loved the mountains, fishing and camping. She was very crafty and loved to make things; presents from her were always something hand made; and most of all, she loved her boys.
A celebration of her life will take place at 2 p.m. on Monday, September 6th, 2021 at Two Hills Centennial Hall, 5301 – 45th Avenue. All attendees are welcome however there may be limited seating.
