Unfortunately, both Ivan Andrusiak and John Gregorovich were not able to attend due to unforeseen circumstances. Andrew Gregorovich and Hanya Cirka accepted the hramota on their brother John's behalf. UNF of Canada President Taras Pidzamecky and Executive Director Olya Grod will personally deliver Mr. Andrusiak’s hramota at his home in the very near future.
