On Monday, January 22, 2024, Stephanie (Steffie) Yakimchuk (nee Chykailo) passed away at the age of 93, with family by her side.
Steffie was predeceased by her parents, Ksenia and Stephen Chykailo, husband Michael Yakimchuk and brother-in-law Harold Dalkie.

Mom was born in Winnipeg in the midst of a depression to Ukrainian immigrant parents. Steffie embraced her Ukrainian heritage and through the Ukrainian Labour Temple, she danced, sang in the choirs and especially loved to play her mandolin in both the Winnipeg and Toronto Mandolin Orchestras. Beyond music, Steffie also enjoyed many other passions including curling and travel.
A loving wife, a supporting mother and a doting grandmother, Steffie will be missed immensely and will be forever in our hearts.
