Terms and Conditions


PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE (AS DEFINED HEREIN). By using this Website, you signify your acknowledgment and agreement to these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, DO NOT use this Website (as defined herein).

These Terms and Conditions govern the use of the Book Of Memories websites (the "Website") and other services (collectively the "Services"). FrontRunner Professional ("Company," "we," "us," "our") reserves the right in our sole discretion to change, amend or modify (the "changes") all or part of these Terms and Conditions at any time and from time to time for any reason. Any changes to these Terms and Conditions will be noted by indicating the date these Terms and Conditions were last made. Any changes will become effective no earlier than fourteen (14) days after they are posted; provided, however, that changes addressing new functions of the Services or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. Your use or continued use of the Services after the date any such changes become effective shall constitute your express acceptance of the Terms and Conditions as changed, amended or modified.

Eligibility: Users under 18 years of age are not eligible to use the Services without consent. Users between the ages of 13 and 17, can use the Services with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who is at least 18 years of age; provided, however, that such parent or legal guardian agrees to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, and agrees to be responsible for such use of the Services. Company reserves the right to refuse use of the Services to anyone and to reject, cancel, interrupt, remove or suspend any Campaign, Donation, or the Services at any time for any reason without liability.

Definitions: In these Terms and Conditions "Campaign Organizers" means those raising funds, and "Campaigns" as their fundraising campaigns. Additionally, "Donors" means those contributing funds, and "Donations" as the funds they contribute. Campaign Organizers, Donors and other visitors to the Services are referred to collectively as "Users". The term "Campaign Organizers" shall also be deemed to include any individual(s) designated as a beneficiary of Campaigns.

Services: The Services are offered as a platform (the "Platform") to Users of the Services. Among other features, the Services are designed to allow Campaign Organizers to post Campaigns to the Platform to accept Donations from Donors. Although there are no fees to set up Campaigns, a portion of each Donation will be charged as fees for our Services and those of our third party payment processors. Company reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services with or without notice. You agree that Company will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance thereof. The Company has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any data or other content maintained or uploaded by the Services. To the extent you access the Services through a mobile device, your wireless service carrier's standard charges, data rates and other fees may apply. In addition, downloading, installing, or using certain Services may be prohibited or restricted by your carrier, and not all Services may work with all carriers or devices. By using the Services, you agree that we may communicate with you regarding Company and other entities by SMS, MMS, text message or other electronic means to your mobile device and that certain information about use of the Services may be communicated to us.

Charitable Giving: Campaigns are not charities to which you can make tax-deductible charitable contributions. Any Donation you make through the Platform may be processed by an unaffiliated business partner for which a processing fee (in addition to our FrontRunner Professional Fee) is deducted. You understand, acknowledge and agree that Company is not a charity, and Company does not solicit charitable donations for itself or for any third-party charitable institution. Company is merely acting as a payment facilitator for any Donations.

Administrative Platform Only: The Services are an administrative platform only. The Company is merely acting as a payment facilitator for any Donations between Campaign Organizers and Donors, and is not a party to any agreement between Campaign Organizers and Donors. Company is not a broker, agent, financial institution, creditor or insurer for any user. Company has no control over the conduct of, or any information provided by Campaign Organizers, and Company hereby disclaims all liability in this regard. We expressly disclaim any liability or responsibility for the success or outcome of any Campaign. Donors must in their sole discretion make the final determination of making Donations to any Campaigns. Donors are solely responsible for asking questions and investigating Campaign Organizers and Campaigns to the extent they feel is necessary before making a Contribution. All Donations are made voluntarily and at the sole discretion and risk of Donors. Company does not guarantee that Donations will be used as promised. Company does not endorse, guarantee, make representations, or provide warranties for or about the quality, safety, or legality of any Campaign. Donors are solely responsible for determining how to treat their Donations for tax purposes.

No Verification of Campaign Information: We do not verify the information that Campaign Organizers supply, and do not guarantee that the Donations will be used in accordance with any fundraising purpose prescribed by Campaign Organizers. We disclaim and assume no responsibility to verify whether the Donations are used in accordance with any applicable laws.

Your Registration Obligations: You may be required to register with Company in order to access and use certain features of the Services. If you choose to register for the Services, you agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Services' registration form. Campaign Organizers must register using their true identities, including their name and any image purporting to depict the Campaign Organizer. Registration data and certain other information about you are governed by our Privacy Policy. If you are under 13 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Services, with or without registering. In addition, if you are under 18 years old, you may use the Services, with or without registering, only with the approval of your parent or guardian. Certain aspects of our Services may also require you to register with (and agree to the terms of) third party service providers (e.g., payment processors or charitable donation processors) in order to utilize such Services. While we may help facilitate such registration in some cases, we are not a party to any such relationships and disclaim any responsibility or liability for the performance by such third parties. We may exchange information with such third party services in order to facilitate the provision of Services (and related third party services).

Public Display of Donations: Donors have the option to publicly display their Donations for public viewing or allow their information to be provided to the Campaign beneficiary(ies). To keep the details of your Donation private, simply click the appropriate checkbox during the Donation process. Please see our Privacy Policy for more information on the ways that we may collect, use, and store certain information about you and your use of the Services.

Payment of Donations: In order to contribute to a Campaign, Donors will be required to provide Company information regarding its credit card (i.e., VISA, MasterCard, Discover or American Express) or other payment method. Donors represent and warrant to Company that such information is true and that Donors are authorized to use the credit card or payment method. Donors agree that a certain minimum Donation amount may apply, and that all Donation payments are final and cannot be refunded. Donors agree to promptly update account information with any changes that may occur and to pay the Donation amount that you specify. Donors hereby authorize Company to bill Donors' credit cards and payment methods in advance on a periodic basis until Donors terminate periodic payments through the Platform.

Fees: Company does not charge Campaign Organizers any upfront fees for Campaigns. Company retains a portion of each Donation contributed to Campaigns in the amount of four percent (4%) ("FrontRunner Professional Fee"). A portion of the Donation is payable to our third party payment processors ("Processing Fee"). Donors acknowledge that by contributing Donations to Campaigns, Donors are agreeing to any and all applicable terms and conditions set forth by a third party payment processor, in addition to these Terms and Conditions. The portion of each Donation payable to and retained by our third party payment processors are:

        • US Users ONLY: Third party payment processor charges a fee of 2.9% AND $0.30 per donation for VISA, MasterCard or Discover cards or 3.4% AND $0.30 per donation for American Express cards.

        • CA Users ONLY: Third party payment processor charges a fee of 2.9% AND $0.30 per donation for VISA, MasterCard or Discover cards or 3.4% AND $0.30 per donation for American Express cards.

All Tribute Pay Fees and Processing Fees ("Fees") are deducted directly from each Donation and are not reflected in the amount which Campaign Organizers can withdraw from the Campaign. We reserve the right to change any of the Fees from time to time. If we change any of the Fees, we will provide notice of the change on the Website or otherwise, at our option, at least fourteen (14) days before the change is to take effect. Your continued use of the Services after the change in any of the Fees becomes effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Fees.

Indemnification: You agree to release, indemnify and hold Company and its affiliates and their owners, officers, employees, directors and agents harmless from any from any and all losses, damages, expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, rights, claims, causes of action, actions of any kind and injury (including death) arising out of or relating to your use of the Services, any Donation or Campaign, your violation of these Terms and Conditions or your violation of any rights of another. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR". To the extent you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine

DISPUTE RESOLUTION - ARBITRATION (READ CAREFULLY): You agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between you and Company (including our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns). Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). The Notice to Company should be sent to 2501 Parmenter Street, Suite 300A, Middleton, WI 53562, Attn: President, with a copy by email to support@tributepayments.com ("Notice Address"). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If Company and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within sixty (60) days after the Notice is received, you or Company may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Company or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Company is entitled.

The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Terms and Conditions, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Terms and Conditions. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of the arbitration provision.

Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Unless both you and Company agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.

Please read this Privacy Policy ("Policy") carefully to understand how we will use and protect your Personal Information. We will not share your Personal Information with anyone except as described in this Policy. Changes to this Policy will be announced on our Site, so please check back periodically. This Policy forms part of the Company’s TERMS AND CONDITIONS and is incorporated by reference to those Terms and Conditions.

This Policy outlines Company’s general policies and practices for protecting your private information on this Site. It covers why Company collects information, the types of information it gathers, how it uses such information, and the notice and choice affected individuals have regarding Company’s use of and their ability to correct their information. This Policy applies to all personal information received by Company whether in electronic, written, or verbal format.

Company reserves the right to modify this Policy at any time and will do so from time to time. Each modification shall be effective upon its posting to the Site. Your continued use of the Site following any such modification constitutes your acceptance of any change(s) to this Policy. It is therefore important that you review this Policy regularly. If you have any questions concerning this Policy please contact Company at support@frontrunner360.com.

1. Scope

This Policy covers the Site in part and as a whole. However, it does not apply to entities that Company does not own or control, including without limitation, Campaign, advertisers or developers of content. Company may include third-party links on the Site. These third-party sites are governed by their own privacy policies and NOT this Policy. Company therefore has no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these third-party sites. Please check the privacy policy of any third-party site you interact with on or off the Site.

2. General Policy Provisions

  1. Definitions

    “Personal Information” includes both “Personally Identifiable Information” and “Non-Personally Identifiable Information”.

    "Personally Identifiable Information" refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are and can be used to identify, contact or locate you. Personally Identifiable Information is requested when you register with us, make a Donation, correspond with us, or otherwise volunteer information, for instance, through the use of "Contact Us". Personally Identifiable Information may include, without limitation, your name, mailing address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card number, and other identification and contact information.

    "Non-Personally Identifiable Information" refers to information that does not identify a specific individual by itself or in combination with other information. We gather certain information about you based upon what you view on our Site in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis. This information may include the Site’s Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. A URL is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web (‘Web”). An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol ("TCP/IP") network, such as the World Wide Web. Networks use the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of the destination. In other words, an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require IP addresses in order for users to communicate on the Internet, browse and shop

    “Sensitive Personal Information” means Personal Information that reveals race, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership or that concerns an individual’s health.

  2. Notice

    Company shall inform you of the purposes for which it collects and uses Personal Information and the types of non-agent third parties to which Company discloses or may disclose that information. Company shall provide you with the choice and means for limiting the use and disclosure of your Personal Information. Notice will be provided in clear and conspicuous language when you are first asked to provide Personal Information to Company, or as soon as practicable thereafter. In any event, you will receive notice before Company uses or discloses the information for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected.

  3. Choice

    Company will offer you the opportunity to choose (opt-out) whether Personal Information is to be disclosed to a third party or to be used for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected or has subsequently been authorized. For Sensitive Personal Information (when applicable), Company will give you the opportunity to affirmatively or explicitly consent (opt-in) to the disclosure of the information for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected or has subsequently been authorized. Company will treat Sensitive Personal Information it receives from anyone the same as it would treat its own Sensitive Personal Information.

  4. Security

    Company shall take reasonable steps to protect Personal Information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No company is immune from Internet attacks or data breaches. Company cannot guarantee the security of information on or transmitted via the Internet.

  5. Data Integrity

    Company shall only process Personal Information in a way that is compatible with and relevant to the purpose for which it was collected or has been authorized. To the extent necessary for those purposes, Company shall take reasonable steps to ensure that Personal Information is accurate, complete, current, and reliable for its intended use.

  6. How to Access Your Information

    Company offers you choices for the collection, use and sharing of Personal Information. You may notify Company of your preferences, or change any Personal Information, by emailing support@frontrunner360.com. Please be sure to provide complete account information so Company can identify you in its records.

    You may also stop the delivery of future promotional e-mail from Company by responding directly to any email you receive with a request to remove you from the mailing list.

3.Reasons the Company Collects Personal Information

Company collects your Personal Information because it helps deliver a superior online experience, gives you convenient access to the Site for browsing, and allows key features of the Site to function properly. In order to better provide you with this superior level of customer service, our Site collects two types of information (referred to in this policy as "Personal Information") about our visitors: Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information. In addition, your Personal Information helps Company keep you informed about the latest announcements, special offers, and events that you might like to hear about.

4. Information Company Collects About You

Any time a guest or member (collectively “Users”) accesses the Site they receive a “cookie” from Company. Company uses cookies (small pieces of data stored for an extended period of time on a computer, mobile phone, or other device) to make the Site easier to use and to protect both you and Company. These cookies give Company certain Non-Personally Identifiable Information about your use of the Site. You may remove or block cookies using the settings in your browser, but in some cases that may impact your ability to use the Site. Company may also use pixels, widgets and other tools to gather such Non-Personally Identifiable Information to improve the experience of the website or mobile application.

Company may contract with third-party service providers to assist it in better understanding its Site Users. These service providers are not permitted to use the Non-Personally Identifiable Information collected on Company’s behalf except to help it conduct and improve its business.

When you access the Site from a computer, mobile phone, or other device, Company may collect Non-Personally Identifiable Information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about the user base as a whole. Company will not use the information collected to market directly to that person.

Company keeps track of some of the actions you take on the Site such as member profiles and pages you view. Even if you do not provide certain information, Company may obtain it from you profile or the pages of its Site that you visit. Company may retain the details of connections or transactions you make on the Site.

5. Information You Provide to Company

To become a User, Company shall collect certain Personally Identifiable Information, which you are required to provide. Information that is not required shall be deemed voluntary and you may provide such information, although not mandatory.

While using the Site, you may provide text, files, images, photos, videos, location data, or any other materials (collectively “Content”) to Company by uploading, posting, or publishing the Content on the Site. Frequently, Content you place on the Site will contain a picture of your face. Company may retain the details of connections or transactions you make on the Site.

Where applicable, when you interact with other Users on the Site, you may provide other information about yourself, such as political or topical views, religious affiliation, or marital status. Any information in a public forum is accessible by anyone, including people who are not members of the Site. Please be aware they may share information you give them with other Users you may not know. They may also share the information outside the Site without your prior approval. Company does not have control over the actions of its Users and accepts no responsibility or liability for their actions. Please keep this fact in mind when using the Site, and use care when disclosing Personal Information to other Users of the Site.

Company may also collect information from ads you click on when using the Site. Company may also keep track of links you click on in e-mails you receive from Company. This is done to increase the relevancy of the ads you see.

6. How Company Uses Your Personal Information

Company uses the information you are required to provide to become a User in order to insure you are over the age of thirteen (13). THE SITE IS NOT MEANT TO BE USED BY ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF THIRTEEN (13). If you are under thirteen, please do not attempt to register with the Site or send Company any Personal Information. Company may also use your age information to be sure you receive an age appropriate experience while using the Site.

Company will use the information it collects to provide, without limitation, services and features to you and facilitate payment for any Donations between Campaign Organizers and Donors and provide information to Campaign Organizers and Campaign beneficiaries. Company will also use the information to measure and improve the Site, and to provide you with customer support.

Company may contact you with new or updated products or services, designs, routes, surveys, or other related announcements from time to time. You may opt-out of all communications except essential updates. Company may include Content in the e-mails sent to you.

Certain software applications and applets transmit data to Company. Company may not make a formal disclosure if it believes its collection of and use of the information is the obvious purpose of the Site or its related application. If it is not obvious that Company is collecting or using such information, it will disclose its collection to you the first time you provide the information.

Company may use the information collected to prevent potential illegal activities. Company may also use a variety of methods to detect and address anomalous activity and screen content to prevent abuse.

Company may use your information to serve you personalized advertising. Company does not share your information with advertisers without your consent. Company allows advertisers to choose the characteristics of Users who will see their advertisements. Company may use any of the Non-Personally Identifiable Information it has collected in any fashion to select the appropriate audience. Company will not tell the advertiser who you are as part of this process. When you interact with an advertisement there is a possibility that you may receive a cookie from the advertiser.

7. How Company Shares Your Information

Company shares your Personal Information with third parties when it believes you have permitted such sharing, that it is reasonably necessary to offer services, or when legally required to do so. Company will not share your Personally Identifiable Information with third parties in a way that it thinks violates your privacy. The following non-exhaustive list contains examples of how Company shares or could share your information:

  1. If Site allows you to invite a friend to join the Site or become a User, and you choose to do so, the invitation will contain information that will allow your friend to identify you. The invitation may contain information about other Users your friend might know.

  2. Certain information you provide to Company may be shared by using the Site’s search function. This allows other Users to locate your profile and it allows new Users to find people they know on the Site.

  3. Company provides some public information to search engines. This information allows search engines to locate the Site. It also allows people to locate you on the Site using a major search engine. This does not mean all information you post on the Site may be accessed using a search engine.

  4. There are also times when Company may make certain Personal Information about you available to strategic partners or third parties. These companies may help Company process information, render services to you, manage and enhance customer data, provide customer service, assess your interest in products and services, or conduct research or satisfaction surveys. Without such information being made available, it would be difficult for you to use Company's Site and services.

  5. Company may also share Personal Information when it has a good faith belief it is necessary to prevent fraud or other illegal activity, to prevent imminent bodily harm, or to protect itself and you from people violating the Terms and Conditions of the Site. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, and courts or other government entities.

  6. Company may disclose information pursuant to subpoenas, court orders, or other requests (including criminal and civil matters) if it has a good faith belief that the law requires such a response. This may include requests from jurisdictions outside of the United States if Company has a good faith belief that the response is required by law under the local laws in that jurisdiction, is applicable to users from that jurisdiction, and is consistent with generally accepted international standards.

  7. Company may disclose analyzed data in the form of purchasing trends or statistical data. No Personally Identifiable Information will be attached to this disclosure.

8. Business or Asset Transfer or Sale

Company may be sold, sell or buy businesses or assets of businesses, or merge with another business. In such transactions, Personal Information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the event that Company, a line of business of Company, or substantially all the assets of Company are transferred, Personal Information may well be one of the transferred assets. Company will make a reasonable effort to provide notice on the Site, and to notify you via e-mail to the most recent e-mail address that you have provided of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.

Obituary

ILJA BUZ (nee ANTONOV)

It is with deep sorrow that the Ilja Buz family siblings announce the death of their father, Sunday, November 29th, 2020 in his 100th year of life. He left this earth to meet his God and to reunite with his precious wife, Tamara, predeceased May 2015.
Ilja was born in a village not far from Komsomoloskoye, state of Chuvasia, Russia, to Alexei and Daria Antonov, and is survived by his sister Vera Antonov, Chuvasia. He is survived by his children: Irene (George Aniol) of Sudbury; Ludmila of London, Ontairo; Tatjana (Duncan Pitts) of Florida; Tamara (Peter Bolton) of Durham, Ontario; and Richard (Melissa) of California. Ilja is grandfather to Michael, Donna, Karen, Darrell, Jordan, Larra, Natasha, Rochelle, Natalia, Angelina, and Sophia; and great grandfather to Andrew, Matthew, Hannah, Joseph, Francis, Louis, and Helena.

After graduating from school in his village, Ilja continued his education in Cheboksary, Chuvasia, in Theatre Arts. While living in that city, which sits on the Volga River, he also worked as a broadcaster for a radio station until such time as he was drafted into the Russian army to serve in the Second World War.

Ilja was captured by the Germans and was a prisoner of war from 1941-1945. Upon his release, he met up with the American army and worked in their kitchen as a dishwasher, then was moved to Munich refugee camp until April 1947. Having escaped from this refugee camp, to avoid repatriation, Ilja made his way to Leige, Belgium, where he found work in a coal mine. It is here that Ilja met his wife, Tamara.

Ilja was determined to immigrate to Canada, a land of hope for his family. He worked hard in the coal mine for six years, saved his earnings, and finally saw his dream come true when he landed by ship in Quebec City in July, 1953. Travelling by train, he arrived in Sudbury with his wife and three daughters to a house arranged and prepared by a friend he had met in Germany. Ilja took odd jobs, including work in a lumber camp in Chapleau, until finally getting a job with Falconbridge in the smelter, where he worked for 30 years, retiring in 1984.

Over the years, Ilja took courses to enhance his communication skills and to provide him job opportunities on the side, fixing TVs and wiring homes. After retirement, at the age of 66, he bought a computer, took computer courses, and typed his memoirs. He was also inspired to take a course in religion at Laurentian University. A very bright man, Ilja learned well and flourished in his abilities to pick up more than half a dozen languages, some of which he picked up in Europe. He loved communicating by computer with distant relatives and friends in Siberia, Chuvasia, Russia, Canada, and the USA. Another hobby he enjoyed was gardening, which made him proud of what he was able to reap at summer’s end.

Ilja will be remembered for his love of family, his smile, sense of humour, wisdom, and his storytelling. His mind was sharp to the end of his time. He was a man of faith, and having experienced his war years at a young age, he realized he had nothing to fear about life and death. He knew his name was recorded in the Book of Life; God would share him with us and take him “home” at the appropriate time. He left a rich legacy and will be remembered and missed by all who knew him.

EULOGY – Ilja Buz

A GOOD MAN is a gift to all who know him—he’s dependable like the sunrise, because his goodness springs from inner strength, not outward circumstances. A GOOD MAN spreads happiness everywhere he goes, and he leaves everyone he meets feeling a little better than they did before. He’s a pleasure to be around, an inspiration in good times and bad, a gift for all seasons… He’s a GOOD MAN.

That’s Ilja, our father.
Good morning, welcome and thank you for coming, and to those who are unable to be here with us, thank you for live streaming, even as far away as Russia. Thank you also for your support and prayers during our grief over the past two weeks. Unfortunately because of Covid-19 and border closures, our sister Tatjana and her family in Florida and our brother Richard and his family in California could not be with us here; however, they are live streaming as well.
We are celebrating Ilja’s life and the impact he’s had on our lives. Mom left us 5 years ago and now dad has left to join her, leaving 5 orphans behind. No matter what age, we 5 are still our parents’ children and we miss them greatly. Dad died of a heart attack, not Covid-19, thank goodness.
So… let me set the stage. Dad was actually born in 1920, not 1921. He’s definitely 100 years old. He changed his name and year of birth in order to avoid being repatriated to Russia because he feared that he would be sent to Siberia where he would be subjected to hard labor such as the uranium mines where, in fact, many perished. My dad also told me how many Russians, especially women who threw their babies and children into the Danube River as they were crossing in vehicles, then they themselves jumped in, committing suicide in order to avoid repatriation. Bodies piled up along the river. Men, too, jumped off trains on their way back to Russia. When I was young, I saw a movie about that and didn’t understand it. Now I do. The bottom line was … go back home and be accused of treason and pay the price in hard labor or run for your life and make the best of it. Why would anyone want to be subjected to this. So…. “Trust in God and paddle to the shore.” Ilja’s philosophy.
Ilja had a very interesting and long life. Much happened in his early toddler years between 1920-1922. During these early years dad was born as the Russian Civil War was ending and a famine was beginning, and gradually worsening throughout Russia. During that time USSR was established; the Communist Party of China was created; the Irish revolution was happening; the roaring 20s were roaring and the very first American pageant was born. Unfortunately there was also an outbreak of smallpox that literally ravaged throughout the villages in Chuvasia. Dad was about 3 years old when he got it. Many, especially children, died and many more were scarred for life like him. He told me how his whole body was consumed by smallpox and as his body was healing he ended up totally covered with scabs. His illness lasted about a month or so. As a result, he grew up scarred with a pitted face, and in later years as he aged, those pits gradually began to disappear little by little, probably due to sun exposure and weathering.
Dad talked quite a bit about his war experiences; his capture by the Germans; the German labor camp; his detainment in a refugee camp held by the Americans in Germany; and how he and three others escaped that camp in order to avoid repatriation which was very close at hand. Timing was everything.
So…. dad and his three buddies cased out the compound, the time that the spotlight took to go around the compound and where would be the best spot to escape. Our father found some object, I can’t remember now exactly what, but something to prop up the barb wire fencing high enough for the four of them to crawl under safely and run. When nightfall came around, he was the first and got through successfully and ran like the dickens. And to his surprise, he suddenly began to fall, roll, and bounce down the hill into a ravine. Of course he could not call out and warn the other three fellows because the American guards would be alerted. So guess what…? All three, one at a time, successfully got through the fencing and ran like the dickens and fell, rolled and bounced down the hill. Wow… what a wonderful and successful escape. We both laughed about his experience. They fled and for two solid days walked, finally arriving into Belgium.
Dad found employment with a coal mining company. That is also where he met our mother, a young 19-year old widow and her 12-month old daughter, Irene. Dad told me how sorry he felt for us, especially for mother’s situation … so young .. having to care for such a small child and all the while having to work to make a decent living. As a toddler, I don’t remember seeing him in the courtyard like I remember seeing other men who worked and lived there. However, I do have memories of him taking me past the kitchen where mother was working. I guess that was the start of our friendship. Father gave me a note he wrote to mother and asked me to deliver it to her. The rest is history.
Approximately 15 years ago mother told me how I seemed to be drawn to father when I was just a year old, seeing him in the courtyard of the coal mining company. He, of course, told me just in recent years after my mother’s passing: “why is this child following me around … constantly coming my way.” Personally, I don’t remember any of this. Mother also told me that because I always went to him and seemed to like him, she felt that he would be a good husband and father. If a child is drawn to this man, he must be a gentle and kind man with a good heart. Surely this child sensed this. The fact that he took advantage of the situation by asking me to deliver a note to her, and of course it resulted in a positive outcome, proved that he was the right man for mom and the right father for my sisters and brother.
One of my fondest memories was not only him taking me for bike rides but also a time we lived in Belgium in a farmland region with lots of orchards. Dad had permission to pick fruit off all the trees. One particular day I remember, dad had climbed up the cherry tree and shook it vigorously. Ludmila, mom and I ran excitedly around collecting cherries off the ground, and what a joyous time we had. Beautiful memories.
Since mom’s death, dad often shared memories and thoughts of his life with her. He said how hard he had to work in the coal mine, take on extra work to make extra money in order to save enough in hopes of immigrating to Canada. He had a vision. We were not sponsored and received no social assistance once we arrived to Sudbury. So you can understand how tough it was for him. Family was very important to him. Father said that he didn’t concern himself about getting rich in this land of opportunity. What was really important to him were the basic needs he wanted to provide his family.
Dad told me about his various part-time jobs that included construction work; painting Inco homes; unloading supplies from trains; working with railway ties at the railway station which was the toughest job; and working for a logging company in Chapleau for 95 cents per hour.Then finally a light at the end of the tunnel: he got a job with Falconbridge Smelter, wages now increased to $1.50 per hour.
While working at Falconbridge, dad also took courses in electrical wiring and television repair where he used his skills to make extra money. Later he took a first year university course in religion that he thoroughly enjoyed. Life was challenging, life was simple, and God was good to him. All in all, dad succeeded in raising us with mom, providing for us to make sure our basic needs were met. I think we all came out OK.
Many of you also know that he enjoyed gardening with mom and reaping the abundance of their garden even to the end of his life this year. The last couple of years, at least, he was kept busy and it gave him some pleasure to see his garden grow. AND… he liked to snooze in the back yard or on the deck in the sunshine. He loved his summers and he looked good and healthy. I have to say that he was also blessed with the nicest neighbors who looked out for him, checked in on him, picked up his mail, brought out his garbage, pushed mounds of snow to the side, shoveled his steps & walkway, often beating me or George to the steps.
Because of dad’s history, he decided to type up his memoirs, both in English and Russian, which are presently being edited by our sister Tatjana. Several years ago, dad was interviewed by Northern Life for a Remembrance Day edition. That interview was printed up in the Northern Life newspaper and was also posted as a live interview on YouTube which can still be found today.
One thing I can say is that God was always included in our family. As a young child, I remember our parents taking Ludmila and me to an Orthodox Church in Belgium. When we came to Canada we continued to go to different churches, depending where we lived in the Sudbury district. But it was All Nations Church that clenched it for us. I was told that Ludmila introduced my parents to this church, then my parents introduced me to All Nations. It’s approximately 50 years that the Buz family has been with All Nations Church.
We love our father for who he was, what he personally went through and survived, his colorful life, and the philosophy he imparted to all of us. Dad told me that the first time it hit him that God was real and had a plan for his life was when he was lying on the ground, German planes flying overhead and bullets hitting the ground. He survived but many did not. At this point in time he realized that he was under God’s protection; God was with him this whole time; God had a purpose for his life and ours. He knew his destiny was in God’s hands, and so he never worried. Hence his long life. Ilja’s name was and is written in God’s Book of Life.
What I learned is that we …my sisters, brother and I….. are borrowed to this earth, to our family …. and yours. God only loaned our parents to us for a time, and what we do with that time is our gift from God.
Ludmila, Tatjana, Tamara, Richard and I are very fortunate to have had our father as long as we did. In fact, we have been blessed to have had both parents as long as we did.

This is a short verse from the Bible, Malachi 4:6 that I really love….
He shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers.

God bless everyone of you.

I forgot to mention that Ilja also volunteered with the Multicultural Department to be the interpreter for any Russian delegation that arrived to Sudbury. There were several: World Junior Olympics in 1988; Moscow Symphony performance in Sudbury; Belarus Children with their official escorts arrived several times to Sudbury.

Ilja, you’ve reached the other shore! I never got to know you very well, but you always had a big smile and a kind response. Thank you! I always felt a kinship with you... perhaps because of my Eastern European roots. Until we meet again my brother...

To Irene, George, and all the family I never met... treasure all that Ilja and Tamara gave you. They are gifts many never receive.

Dear Members of the Buz Clan, Our Family friendships were fostered as we grew up in Minnow Lake, interacted, and watched our lives unfold. At All Nations Church I was blessed to get to know Tamara and Ilja much better and to enjoy visits to our homes where I was fascinated to learn about their Family History. When teaching Grade 12 History at St. Charles College, Ilja accepted my invitations to speak about WW2 and the Cold War. He ended each visit by writing on the blackboard ...."Trust in God, and paddle to the shore". It will always be one of my favourite sayings. God bless the wonderful Buz/Antonov Clan.
