Helen Kachanoski of Yorkton passed away peacefully Wednesday, March 2, 2022 with her family by her side. Helen was born in 1933 in Winnipeg. She spent her childhood in Melita, MB. She moved to Souris, MB where she started her lifelong career as a telephone operator. It was in Souris that she met her husband Reg Kachanoski. They were married in 1952. They were blessed with four children Valerie, Gary, Sheila, and Philip. They lived in Dauphin, MB and then settled in Yorkton, SK. Helen was an avid reader and volunteered for many clubs including Royal Purple, Yorkton Figure Skating Club, and the Liberal Party. She was fiercely patriotic and loved being a Canadian. Canada Day will not be the same without her. She was extremely proud of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Her love for her family was evident in the way she lived her life.
She loved spending time with her sister at Lake Imrie, the family cottages at Good Spirit Lake, and hosting family Christmases. Helen was a cornerstone for our family. She had a quick wit, wonderful sense of humour and was always available to listen and visit with others. She was a big life force who left us all with an abundance of good memories. A friend of hers described her as stoic, non judgemental, loyal, unwavering and kind hearted. She leaves a strong family legacy to celebrate her life.
She is pre-deceased by her husband Reg, mother Mona, brothers Jim and Brian, and son-in-law Tom. Left to cherish her memory are her sister Janice Lucas, children Valerie (Bob) Hunko, Gary (Teresa) Kachanoski , Sheila Patterson, Philip (Sue) Kachanoski; Grand children Lindsay (Sean), David (Katie), Laura (Jeremy), Elizabeth (Ryan), Reg, Peter (Emma), Erin (Devon), Ryan (Crystal), Adam (Natalie), Rowen and Emma; Great grandchildren Kyler, Emily, Adam, Isabelle, Adelyn, Emmett, Wyatt, Owen, Sydney, Milo, Alia, Griffin and Henry; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and friends, in lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Salvation Army.
