It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear father, grandfather, husband and brother - Ihor Jaciw, who departed from this world on June 13th 2024. Born to Wasyl and Sofia on May 22, 1930, in Stryj, Ukraine, Ihor lived a full and remarkable life, leaving behind a legacy of love, hard work, creativity and dedication.

Ihor is survived by his beloved wife of 68 years, Nina (Natalia) Jaciw. Their enduring partnership was a testament to a lifetime of love and commitment. He was a devoted father to his children: Tatiana (Eduardo) Kowryga, Peter (Xiaoping) Jaciw, and Rimma (Franco) D'Orazio. He also leaves behind his cherished sister, Luba and his grandchildren Ricardo and Luca D'Orazio, who brought joy to his life.

A man of many passions and talents, Ihor found great joy in the outdoors. He loved fishing and hunting in Kenora and other parts of northern Ontario, often sharing these adventures with family and friends as well as teaching his children and grandchildren. His entrepreneurial spirit shone brightly when he started his own business, Good Boy Furniture, and pioneered TV and appliance sales and service. He and his wife were well known as the couple who would do whatever they could to help you furnish a beautiful home for countless families. They made a significant impact to the community!

In addition to his business acumen, Ihor had a deep connection to the land. He ran a successful 100 acre hobby farm where he raised prize-winning Limousin cattle and proudly owned two Canadian champion bulls. His dedication to excellence in all his endeavors was evident in the success and recognition he achieved.

Ihor's life was one of hard work, passion, and unwavering commitment to his family and community. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him, but his memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.

He is now reunited with his parents, siblings, his son Richard and his grandson Nikolas. Rest in peace, Ihor. Your legacy of commitment and dedication will never be forgotten.
