Canora Courier, July 16, 2008 Page 16 – In memoriam:

CYMBALISTY: In loving memory of Barry Cymbalisty who passed away June 30. 1998.

Just as you were, you will always stay.

Loved and remembered every day;

One year comes, another one goes.

But the gates of memory never close.

-Forever in our hearts, wife Olga, children. Linda, Shirley, Trudy and families.

KOWALCHUK, April: July 14, 2000.

A sadness still comes over us,

Tears in silence often flow;

Memory keeps you ever near us,

Though you died eight years ago.

-Still missing you, Deb. J. and Arlette B.

Canora Courier, July 16, 2008 Page 16 – In memoriam:

KORCHYNOS: In loving memory of Shirley Korchynos, who passed away July 15, 2007.

A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says she is gone.

Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all.

She is just as large now as when I last saw her.

Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.

And just at that moment, when someone at my side says she is gone.

There are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout - There she comes!

That is what dying is.

An horizon and just the limit of our sight.

Lift us up O Lord, that we may see further.

-Dearly missed and lovingly remembered by Bev, Suzette, Brett, Zachary, Tyler. Deb, Chris, Lukas, Stefan, Markus and Thomas and many family mem­bers and friends.

YAWORSKI: It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful departure of Helen Lena Yaworski (nee Wolkowski) at the age of 92 years and 9 months on Tuesday, July 8th, 2008 at the Canora Hospital with family by her side after a brief, courageous battle with cancer.

Helen was born on October 26th, 1915 near Buchanan, SK to Mike and Agnes (nee Kozminski) Wolkowski. She was raised on the family farm near Buchanan and attended Christiana School. Helen was united in marriage to Frank Yaworski on November 28th, 1939 and they were blessed with three sons: Bernard, Alvin and Ron. Helen and Frank farmed in the Tiny district. After Frank's passing, Helen continued to live on the farm until August 1st, 1982, at which time, she moved to Buchanan. Helen enjoyed baking, cooking and making delicious perogies, cabbage rolls, bread, pickles and headcheese. She also enjoyed gardening, sewing, playing cards, and she particularly enjoyed the company of her friends that would visit, as well, attending Club 50 on Wednesday afternoons for card games, bingo and lunch. Helen was a very hardworking woman who had a very strong religious faith while accepting her life's journey. She would always say, "With my two hands and God's help." She was also very compassionate, caring, generous, loving, and a proud mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great grandmother who loved her family dearly and treasured every visit, as well as celebrating holidays and special moments with all of her family.

Helen will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by her family. Her sons: Bernard (Helen) of Regina, SK, Alvin (Karen) of Saskatoon, SK and Ron (Sandy) of Chilliwack, B.C.: her grandchildren: Shannon (Brett), Suzanne (Daryn), Miranda (Chad), Sheldon, Tanya, Janelle, Breanne and Kevin; her great grandchildren Nathan (Tia), Randall, Megan, Madison, Alexandra, Victoria and Matthew; great­great- grandchild.

Joe, her sisters: Annie Soloski. Maggie Woytowich and Frances Makowsky. She will be missed dearly and never forgotten by all who knew her and loved her.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to all of the staff at the Canora Hospital for their kindness and support during her illness and hospital stay. As one nurse commented. "After a twelve hour shift, she's my morning ray of sunshine!"
