Another bitter news for Sheptytska community
A Hero, Oleh Melnychuk, has passed away in the Heavenly Legion. The soldier stood up to defend Ukraine back in 2014. Due to his health condition, he was forced to leave the service, but in the first days of the full-scale invasion, he volunteered to return to the army.
Unfortunately, today it became known that Oleh Melnychuk’s heart stopped during his stay in hospital…
Low bow to the Defender, to whom we all owe an irrevocable debt. We express our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the Hero. We share the pain of the irreparable loss and bow our heads in grief.
Today, at 20:30, a funeral service will be held at the Church of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the village of Gornik. Tomorrow, on 7 May, at 15:30, the funeral rites will begin.
It is our duty to remember the high price of our independence and freedom.
May the memory and eternal glory of the Hero be eternal!
