      It was described specifically or transcribed by them as "GERALD ALEXANDER OSTRY, Born: Oct 19, 1925, Date of Passing: Oct 25, 2021; GERALD ALEXANDER OSTRY".
      Born: October 19, 1925 – Winnipeg, Manitoba
      Died: October 25, 2021 – Calgary, Alberta

      Gerald Ostry passed away peacefully, with his family by his side, at the Carewest Colonel Belcher Veterans Long Term Care Facility in Calgary, AB on Monday, October 25, 2021, at the age of 96 years.
      Gerald was born, educated and lived his life in Winnipeg's North End. Gerald met the love of his life, Jenny, in Grade 6 at Lord Nelson School and they were ultimately wed on August 24, 1946. Their mutual love and respect for each other spanned 56 years of marriage. Gerald was always kind and willing to lend a helping hand to family and friends and was well known for his sense of humour. Gerald will always be remembered as a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend.
      Gerald enlisted in the Navy in July 1944. When the Second World War ended, he began his studies, and successfully attained his Chartered Accountant designation back in Winnipeg. Gerald was self-employed most of his career, occupying an office in the Ukrainian Fraternal Society Building at McGregor and Magnus. His brother-in-law Ted and sister Mae worked with Gerald for a number of those years. Gerald finally laid down his pencil and unplugged his adding machine for good when approaching his 90s! In his later years, Gerald was very fortunate to have had a special relationship with Eugenie Hryshko, enjoying many laughs together.
      Gerald was also an avid sports enthusiast. He was an accomplished ten-pin bowler who developed many lifelong friendships through the sport. We recall his joy when he finally bowled a 300 game after having been close with a 298 and 299. He was a season ticket holder of the Blue Bombers for 52 years, starting at Osborne Stadium, and of the Jets from the days in the WHA through to the NHL. As many can attest, Gerald would never turn down a game of Cribbage, Scrabble or a breakfast at Luda's.
      Left to cherish his loving memory are his children, Gary (Debbie Hendsbee) and Maureen Luchsinger (Brian), and his grandchildren, Kathleen, Michael, Diane, and Alison. He is also survived by his daughter-in-law Anne and half-sister Yvonne Wilson of Toronto. Gerald was predeceased by his wife Jenny Ostry; his eldest son Thomas; parents, Alexander Ostry and Anne Melnychuk, younger brother Laurie and younger sister Mae Lewin.
      The family would like to acknowledge the considerate and very loving care provided by the staff at the Colonel Belcher Veterans Long Term Care Facility in Calgary and prior to that, the River Ridge Independent supportive living facility in Winnipeg.
      At his request cremation has taken place. There are no immediate plans to have a Celebration of Life, however, at a future date Gerald will be finally laid to rest beside his wife Jenny in Winnipeg.
      If friends so desire, memorial tributes may be made directly to the charity of the donor's choice.

      It was described specifically or transcribed by them as "JENNY OSTRY (SYPOSZ), Date of Passing: May 17, 2003; Peacefully on Saturday, May 17, 2003, at Concordia Hospital, Jenny Ostry, beloved wife of Gerald, passed away at 78 years of age with her family at her side. Jenny approached her valiant battle w".ith cancer as she approached her life...with an unwavering positive attitude. Her comment when diagnosed with cancer was "We will face this one day at a time". Jenny was predeceased by her father and mother, Michael and Rose Syposz, and older brother Casey. Left to cherish her loving memory are her husband Gerald; her brother Ted; her children, Tom (Anne), Gary (Debbie Hendsbee) and Maureen Luchsinger (Brian) and her grandchildren, Kathleen, Michael, Diane and Alison. Jenny will always be remembered as a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Her grandchildren had a special place in her heart and their faces would light up when Grandma came into the room. She was a gentle soul with an amazing kindness of spirit. Jenny felt her life was enriched by her warm relationships with family and friends, and she unconditionally offered her caring and generosity to others. She had a love of life, a great sense of humour and made every day count. Above all, her beautiful smile will always be remembered - it persevered until the very end and always shone through even during times of adversity. Jenny was born, educated and lived her life in Winnipegs north end. Gerald and Jenny first met in Grade 6 at Lord Nelson School and were ultimately wed on August 24, 1946. Their mutual love and respect for each other spanned 56 years of marriage. Jenny was an avid sports enthusiast: the captain of her high school volleyball team, an accomplished ten-pin bowler who developed many life-long friendships through the sport, a season ticket holder of the Blue Bombers for 52 years and of the Jets from day one. Collecting lapel pins was a passion and she treasured receiving pins from family and friends and sharing their memories and experiences. Jenny had a flair for word games and would assist friends in solving puzzles, even from the hospital. She had a love of travel and one of her highlights later in life was travelling throughout Europe. The family would like to acknowledge the considerate and loving care provided by the staff at Concordia Hospital, Dr. Pat Harris and long-time physician Dr. B. A. Gorski. A special thank you to Ats and Ted Odaguchi who buoyed Jennys spirits by their daily visits and to her life-long friend Lena Zywylo for her enduring support. The family would also like to thank all the many friends and family who visited and offered their well-wishes and prayers for her through this time. At her request, cremation has taken place. A funeral service will take place on Thursday, May 22, at 7:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main St. Monsignor V. J. Bozyk will officiate. In lieu of flowers, friends who so desire may make a donation to CancerCare Manitoba or a charity of their choice. Mom will be missed more than words can express. Peace in heaven Mom CROPO FUNERAL CHAPEL 586-8044
