Obituary for
Neonila Burlaka
Neonila Burlaka passed away peacefully in her sleep at the Edmonton General Continuing Care Centre on May 24, 2019.
Neonila is survived by her only daughter, Halyna (Bohdan). Born in Ukraine, she had a long, eventful and sometimes difficult life, but now she is at her well earned resting place. Neonila will be fondly remembered by her friends and relatives in Ukraine and Canada, as well as by many friends and neighbors of her daughter and son-in-law, who cherished her company, enjoyed her beautiful singing of Ukrainian folk songs, storytelling, gardening skills, and her good humour while visiting them, first, in Edmonton, and later on an acreage near Devon, AB.
The family is grateful to Neonila’s last rites priest, Reverend Father Dr. Roman I. Shiyan (UOCC, Lac La Biche Parochial District, Alberta). Caring and compassionate preparations for traditional services were arranged by Park Memorial Funeral Home, Edmonton.
Funeral services with Reverend Dr. Jaroslaw Buciora officiating to be held on May 30, 2019 at 10:00 a.m. (visitation from 9:00 a.m.) at the All Saints of Ukraine Chapel with burial to follow at St. Volodymyr Ukrainian Cemetery, both at 1280 Dundas Street West, Oakville, ON. Turner & Porter Funeral Directors.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Neonila
