To The Leseiko Family,
Our deepest condolences goes out to your Family.
The Broken Chain...
We little knew that morning
That God would call your name
In life we loved you dearly
In death we do the same
It broke our hearts to lose you
You did not go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home
You left us precious memories
Your love is still our guide
And though we cannot see you
You are always by our side
Our family chain is broken
And nothing seems the same
But as God calls us one by one
The chain will link again.
Wendy, Ihor, Rory, Keegan and Anna Wasiunec

Mickey, Oksana, Marta & Irene,
I don't know how to express my sadness to any of you... As you know Doc has ALWAYS been very close to my heart. I have many found memeories of Doc...each and every one I will hold on to... The 4 years that I worked with Doc were the BEST years of my life... He always seemed to make me laugh when I was down..Just seeing him in the morning put a smile on my face...Doc's jokes were the best.. even if they weren't funny Doc knew how to tell them so that you would laugh...Doc took me in under his wing and I never felt like "an employee" I always felt like family...There was never a day that went by that Doc wasn't in my mind... My Sympathy is with you and the entire Leseiko family. I will miss Doc...
