“НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ”, ЛИПЕНЬ - СЕРПЕНЬ 201 3 WWW. UNWLA.ORG 29 IN MEMORIAM Anna Boychuk Anna Boychuk, 92, of Bernardsville , NJ, fo r- merly of Warren , MI, passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 8 , 2013, after a brief illness. Her daughter was by her side. Born in Uk raine in 1920, Anna Boychuk was fondly known as “Baba” because she treated ev e- ryone like one of her own. In her late teens, Anna fled from Ukraine to Berlin, Germany , to escape Russian occupation and co ntinued living in Berlin during World War II. In 1949, sponsored by a family in York, PA , to be their nanny, Anna i mmigrated to the United States. In the 1950 s she moved t o the D e- troit metropolitan area where she became active in the large Ukrainian commu nity. In 1961 she married Osyp (Joseph) Boychuk, who passed away in 1973. For many decades, Anna was an active parishioner of St. Josaphat Ukrainian Catholic Church, sang in the choir, and worked for various charities as a member of the Ukraini an National Women’s League of America, Branch 76. Anna was caring and generous to a fault. Her well - known, perpetual garage sale was her way to generate funds for her favorite charity — namely, orphanages in Ukraine. Anna lived the majority of her life in Wa r- ren, MI , until she moved to Bernardsville, NJ , where she lived with her daughter Christine and her family. Anna loved to garden, cook, was an avid reader and word search fanatic, and had a joyful sp irit until her final days. She was proud of her Ukrai nian heritage , and her homemade pierogies wer e legendary. She was known for her humor, her stories, and her infectious smile. Her greatest love was her two grandchi l- dren , Nicholas and Alexandra Baker. She che r- ished sharing her time and experiences with th em, and watching them grow up in their family home. She was “Baba” not only to them, but also to anyone who knew her. She will be dearly missed. A Fun eral Mass was held on June 17th at Our Lady of Per petual Help in Bernardsville , NJ . UNWLA Branch 124 of St. Petersburg, Florida MEMORIAL MASS AT EPIPHANY OF OUR LORD UKRAINIAN CATHOLIC CHURCH On Sunday, April 28, 2013 , a Holy Memorial Mass was celebrat ed to commemorate the Soyuzianky from Branch 124 who have passed to their eternal reward: Vera Pestyk , Lubomyra Cichowlas , and Stefania Kobylicky . The women who were commemorated at this mass were all active members for a very long time, and they supported Branch 124 in many ways through their acad emic knowledge and life experiences. They will be greatly missed. A delicious breakfast was served after both masses for o ur members and their families. This was a time to celebrate the lives of the three members and share our memories of them together. Vera Swade ДО УВАГИ МИСТЦІВ І ШАНУВАЛЬНИКІВ МИСТЕЦТВА!
