It was described specifically or transcribed by them as "JOHN CHORNEY, Born: Jul 29, 1926, Date of Passing: Jun 14, 2003; John Chorney, our loving husband, father and grandpa, passed away peacefully at the age of 76 at Selkirk General Hospital, on Saturday, June 14, 2003. John will be greatly missed by S".tella, his wife of almost 50 years; his three sons and two daughters-in-law, David, Harvey (Brenda), and Brian (Brenda) his beloved grandchildren, Emily, Meghan, Michael, and Sarah; as well as brothers, Mike (Sophie) and Joe (Stella) sister Stella Wasylik; and numerous brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. He was predeceased by his parents, John Sr. and Nellie; brothers, James and Anton; and sisters, Mary Mikolash and Carrie Sternat. John was born July 29, 1926, on the Chorney homestead established by his parents in 1918 in the RM of St. Clements. He and Stella Kazina wed in 1953, and proudly settled on that same homestead, working side by side, raising their three sons, and farming together as a family in what John liked to call the "land of cream and honey." John was one of the fortunate ones, able to pursue something he loved, for his entire life. His love of the land was evident by his delight in watching things grow, taking crop tours, taking farming workshops, and meeting and talking with other farmers. His interest in the farm continued even after he "semi-retired" only a few years ago. John strongly believed in the farmers creed of neighbour helping neighbour. He was a founding member of the St. Clements Fire Department, and proudly served as a volunteer fire fighter to the community for 23 years. He was a lifelong member of St. Stanislaus Church in East Selkirk. He loved to visit with family and friends. And he loved to travel; he and Stella went on many memorable trips. Grandpa took great delight in his four grandchildren. He loved to tease them, to share treats with them, and to encourage them to "tell me some stories." Prayers will be held Tuesday, June 17 (tonight) at 7:30 p.m.. at Gilbart Funeral Home, Selkirk, MB. Funeral mass will be held on Wednesday, June 18 at 10:30 a.m. in the St. Stanislaus Church, East Selkirk with Fr. Jerry Talarski officiating. Interment will follow in the East Selkirk Cemetery. Pallbearers are nephews, Doug Chorney, Murray Chorney, Clarence Chorney, Gary Komadowski, Michael Kazina, and Conrad Mlodzinski. Many thanks go to Dr. S. Barker and staff on 6A at St. Boniface Hospital, and Dr. R. Lindenschmidt and the staff that provided palliative care in Selkirk General Hospital. Flowers are gratefully declined, those who wish may make donations in Johns memory to either the St. Boniface Hospital and Research Foundation or the Selkirk General Hospital.

It was described specifically or transcribed by them as "STELLA CHORNEY (KAZINA), Born: Sep 22, 1931, Date of Passing: Dec 06, 2018; Surrounded by her boys, Mom passed away peacefully on Thursday, December 6, 2018 at the Selkirk Regional Health Centre. Mom was predeceased by her beloved husband John on J".une 14, 2003. She is lovingly remembered by her sons, David, Harvey (Brenda) and Brian (Brenda); grandchildren, Emily (Len), Meghan, Michael (Shayla) and Sarah (Kyle); and great-grandson Madyx. She is also survived by three sisters, one brother, and many nieces, nephews, and other family members. She was born September 22, 1931 near Tyndall, Manitoba, a middle child of 13 children to Eva and Dmytro. Mom attended Tyndall School and, as a young adult, worked at Eaton's Warehouse in Winnipeg. However, Mom's stay in Winnipeg was brief, as her heart was in the country, both with the land and the love of her life, John. They married on October 3, 1953 and began their lifelong passion of farming on the original Chorney homestead. Mom was very active in the community, leading 4-H groups while her boys were growing up, and was a lifelong member of the Catholic Women's League. Mom's passion was her home and her family - no one left her house hungry. In the summer everyone left with a bag full of fresh veggies from her expansive garden, while in the winter she kept the family warm with her beautiful knitted sweaters. We will miss her immensely but are comforted by the fact that she will be joining Dad. Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Wednesday, December 12, 2018 at 10:30 a.m. in the St. Stanislaus Roman Catholic Church in East Selkirk, MB, with Father Joshua Gundrum officiating. A viewing will be held prior to the Mass in the church. Private family interment will follow in the East Selkirk Cemetery beside John. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to CancerCare Manitoba Foundation.
