Hello! My name’s Dmytro. Mary’s husband, Martyn, was my grandmother's uncle. In the last years of her life, my grandma, Hanna Oleksiyivna, tried to get in touch with her Canadian relatives. Unfortunately, she didn’t live to see this happen: she passed away this April. But it would be nice if at least we, the grandchildren, could get in touch. So if anyone of Mary's relatives is intested, please write to my at dmymd@yandex.by or find me on Facebook. This obituary was the only piece of information I could find about grandma's Canadian relatives in the internet, so I'm writing here. I'm not sure if such kind of information really belongs here, but I don't know where else to turn. - Posted by: Dmytro Kushnaryov (my grandmother was Martyn Kuzenko's niece) on: Nov 13, 2015
