OLGA KASIAN
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Olga Kasian on Friday April 17, 2020.
She leaves to mourn her sons Dennis (Vivian) and Donald (Gillian) and her grandchildren Laura and Melissa (Ryan) and Chloe and Anika, and 2 great grandchildren Casey and Everett. She also leaves to mourn numerous sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews
.
She was predeceased by husband Walter, granddaughter Alize Kasian, parents William and Maria Salamandyk, sisters Anne, Margaret and Violet, and brothers John and Peter.
Olga was born at Carlowrie Manitoba on Jan. 7,1925. In her early years, she was a teacher in one room schools in Rosa, Tolstoi and Woodmore. She later taught grade 3 in the St. James School Division at Bannatyne and Crestview schools for a period of 20 years, retiring in 1981.
Olga was a founding and active member of the St. Josaphat’s Ukrainian Catholic Church and an active member of the Ukrainian Catholic Women’s League.
Olga enjoyed family. Large family gatherings were common at her house and no one ever went hungry. In her retirement, her pastime was painting. Many people have a work of art on their wall with Olga’s signature. She also enjoyed fishing, camping and traveling.
The family would like to give special thanks to the staff at Lions Manor for their dedication and compassionate care for Olga for the past 3 years. She enjoyed her time there, but most of all appreciated the kindness of the care givers.
Following restrictions set for Covid-19, a private service has been held.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of OLGA
