KUZMYN,
Stefan
Born Aug 21, 1919, in Ukraine. Stefan died in Toronto of heart
failure Jan 24, 2008. A proud Ukrainian throughout his life,
Stefan had been heartened in recent years to see Ukraine developing
as a free democratic country. As a young man he was forced into
slave labour at Nazi concentration camps for his Ukrainian underground
activities. Over the postwar years he worked ceaselessly with
Ukrainian nationalist groups to help liberate Ukraine from Soviet
oppression. Settling in Kingston in 1955, he earned his living
as a production worker at the Dupont plant there. He found a
strong place in Kingston, both with other Ukrainians and the
greater community. Many there were familiar with his role in
the annual Ukrainian Folklore festivities. He travelled often
to Ukraine, where he was honoured for his underground work. During
Ukraine's 10th Anniversary of Independance celebrations, he was
one of a handful of non-parliamentarians invited to sit on the
floor of the Parliament chamber. In his declining years, he participated
in family life when he could, his children having moved inconveniently
away. Until her death two years ago, Yolanta
GALICINSKI was a
constant companion for many years. The Luciuk family were great
Friends throughout his time in Kingston. But always, for him,
there were Friends everywhere. He is survived by his sister Katerina,
his children, Marika, Yuri, Natalia and Peter, and his daughter-in-law
Kelly. His son Wasyl predeceased him, as did his separated wife
Anna. His grandchildren are Russell and Holly. Stefan was buried
in Kingston on Monday, Jan 28th in Saint Mary's Cemetery.
