KUSHNY, Alice “Lesia” - It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our beloved Alice. Born on Nov. 15, 1933 to Dmytro & Stephania Chruszcz (Nedozytko) in Winnipeg, Alice died peacefully on Dec. 13, 2020.
Lesia is survived by her husband of 64 years, Eugene, the love of her life, whom she met on a blind date in Trinity Bellwoods Park.
They shared a love like no other.
Alice was a devoted and loving mother to Alicia Wiedemann (John), Donna Simpson (John), and James (Helen).
A proud and nurturing Baba to Yvonne (Sam), John Kalvin (Keely), Jonah, Joshua, Edith, Hazel.
An adoring PraBaba to Winter Rose, Forest, Sammy and Ella.
Alice grew up with her parents on a farm in Grimsby, Ontario. After the birth of her sister, Olya, whom she was very close to, the family moved to Toronto where Alice attended Bloor Collegiate.
Alice loved to travel and had her dream two-month long honeymoon cruise throughout Europe. She visited family in Australia, Ukraine, the US and Canada and also toured Kuala Lumpur, Alaska and the Caribbean.
Alice was very involved with Swansea P.S., Humberside C.I., St. Josaphat’s Church, Ukrainian National Federation and Kalyna choir.
Alice was an accomplished artist, who loved gardening, camping in Cape Cod and desserts.
Alice’s laughter and smile would fill and brighten a room. She always remembered everyone’s birthdays or days of celebration and would phone, sing and/or write a note to those she loved.
Lesia will forever be in our hearts and we know that she is an angel among the angels.
“Love you Lesia”
