CHERNOWCHAN: In loving memory of Steve, who passed away November 13, 2006.

This day is remembered and quietly kept,

No words are needed, we shall never forget;

For those we loved don't go away,

You walk beside us everyday.

Unseen and unheard, but always near,

So loved, so missed and so very dear;

Always in our hearts.

-Lorraine and Shirley and their families.

DOROSHENKO: Metro Doroshenko of Buchanan passed away at the Canora Hospital on November 2nd, 2007 at the age of 88 years.

Metro was born on November 6th, 1918 in the Bellenden district to Wasyl and Anastasia (nee: Bodnarchuk) Doroshenko. As a young boy, Metro attended Bellenden School where he completed his Grade 8. He helped on the family farm until 1941 when he was called to serve his country. His military training took him to Regina, Winnipeg and Vancouver.

After completing his training, he went overseas and served with both the Canadian and US Armies. Following his discharge from the Army in November of 1945, Metro returned to Canada and settled in the Rama district where he farmed for more than ten years.

After his father passed away in 1955, Metro sold the farm and moved to Buchanan. He became well known for helping people by doing many odd jobs. Some of the jobs he enjoyed the most were carpentry work and repairing bicycles. All the children in Buchanan would bring Metro their bicycles for him to fix. Metro's greatest passion was the automobile. He loved to buy and drive new cars. He was most proud of the Jeep his father bought him in 1947. Even well into his eighties, Metro was still thinking about buying a new car. Metro was an active member of the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Buchanan for many years. He had a kind heart and will be most remembered for always wanting to help people. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Metro is lovingly remembered by his brothers: Mike (Sylvia) Doroshenko of Rama and William (Anna Maria) Doroshenko of Whiterock, BC and his sister: Catherine Wolkowski of Toronto, ON. He was predeceased by his parents: Wasyl and Anastasia; his brothers: Nick, John and Fred; and his sisters: Annie Bartko, Margaret Leniuk, Verna Dowhan, Doris Korchinski, and Mary Zaplitney.
