Kathryn (Jurynec) Wus, 97, passed away September 1, 2016. In the early morning hours as it started to rain heaven gained the most beautiful, caring and selfless angel. Tears of joy rained down on us as she joined her soul mate in heaven. She was the loving wife of the late John Wus. Born in the village of Khyshevych, Ukraine, she was the daughter of the late Dmytro and Maria (Sawicky) Jurynec. She emigrated to Allentown, PA in 1949 where she resided until she was 89 at which time she relocated to Philadelphia to live with her daughter. She was a member of St. Josaphat Ukrainian Catholic Church.



During World War II she was taken from her family to Germany to serve as an Ostarbeiter (Eastern Worker). With strength, determination and prayer she survived and made her way to the USA on “the boat” with her husband and 10 month old baby. She didn’t know the language or customs, but established a loving home for her growing family.



From the moment you entered her home, she would fill you up with Ukrainian foods, no matter how full you were, like any good grandmother, she always wanted you to eat more. She taught her children and grandchildren to make pierogi and halupki from scratch and she would cut up kielbasa and bread to snack on while everything cooked. Although her favorite moments were being surrounded by her family, she longed to be reunited with her husband and missed him dearly.
