Obituary of Olga Maxymuik

(nee Kolynko)

August 28, 1923 - July 11, 2022

Passed away peacefully at Heritage Green Nursing Home in Stoney Creek on Monday, July 11, 2022 at the age of 98. Olga is now residing in heaven with her late husband, Peter Maxymuik, who passed away on February 25, 1997. She leaves behind her son, Peter, and daughters, Patricia (John), and Carol (Tom). She adored her grandchildren, Colleen (John), Tim, Chris, Karen (Genio), and Michael and all of her great-grandchildren, Keisha, Beth-any, Antonio, Luke, Andrew, Damon, Lexii, Leo, Jasmine, Vanessa, James, and Jack. 

Olga loved the Lord Jesus with all of her heart. She was a prayer warrior, and we know her prayers changed our lives. She loved to go to Paramount Drive Alliance Church and then to Wendy's afterward for lunch with her friends. Senior's Coffee Hour was a highlight for her each week for many years. One of her favorite things to do was to play games with family and friends. She was unbeatable at Scrabble and daring at Euchre.

She made the most amazing perogies and cabbage rolls - they were the highlight of our many family dinners. She loved all of her family so much and would do anything for us. Even her great grandkids loved to visit her. They would go to her Heritage Green apartment for homemade cookies and to play a game with her. She was our beloved dog sitter for our family dog, Arnie. He adored her and would sit at her feet and wait for the many walks she would take him on.

She was a provincial lawn bowling champion and loved to swim at Valley Park Pool and play shuffleboard on her many trips to Florida. She was beautiful inside and out and we were so blessed to have had her in our lives for so many years. She is now dwelling in Beulah Land.

Private family committal service at the cemetery on Friday. Celebration of Life will take place in September at Paramount Drive Alliance Church. In lieu of flowers, donations to Paramount Drive Alliance Church would be appreciated.
