Obituary for Petro "Peter" Bilynskyj

Bilynskyj, Peter

It is with heavy hearts that we announce his passing at St. Josephs Villa Monday, March 23rd, 2020, at the age of 93 years. He was a kind and very generous man, who will be missed by all who knew him. He is predeceased by his parents and siblings, and his dear beloved Estelle Gazzola. He is survived by his nephews Ihor and Evgen Bilynskyj who live in the Ukraine. Dear friend of Gina and Phil Charbonneau as well as Estelle’s family. Peter immigrated to Canada and was born in Holohory in the Ukraine. He was a retired welder from Vale. He enjoyed his camp in Killarney, dancing and walking, in his healthier years. His courage in the face of his adversity was an inspiration to many. We appreciate and would like to thank all of the help and support that he received from staff and friends who cared for him while he lived at The Walford Retirement Home and at St. Josephs Villa. A special thanks to all of his nurses and personal support workers, especially Nicole and Misty. Donations to a charity of your choice would be appreciated.
