It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of our beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, in her 86th year, on January 10, 2013. Loving wife of Mykola (Nick) for 64 years and cherished mama of Mike and Agi, Roman and Cathy and her husband Stephen Lechniak. Baba will be sadly missed by her grandchildren Matthew, Candace, Nicholas, Andrew, Stephanie, Michael and her great-grandchildren Harmony and Sage. Born in Kosiw, Ukraine, Paulina is predeceased by her parents Kateryna and Mychajlo Mamczuk, her sister Mariyka and is survived by her brother Mychajlo.
