Elaine Marie Mair It is with saddened hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Elaine Marie Mair on July 16th, 2013 at the Kelowna Hospital. Elaine was born in Nelson, BC in 1943 to Ed and Anne Chernoff. She was the elder sibling of Ed Chernoff junior. Elaine spent her life here in the Kootenays close to her immediate and extended family. During this time she developed lifelong relationships with many people within this community including her husband Don. Aside from being three months shy of celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary, Elaine and Don shared an immense bond since they were children. They were married October 19th, 1963. Shortly after, they started a family, having three children. After committing the early years to her children’s lives, Elaine went back to work at Sears in Castlegar. From there, Elaine worked at the Castlegar Savings Credit Union for many years until she retired at the age of 56. Her and Don dedicated their lives to truly working together and building a solid future for themselves and their children. In addition to working hard in their chosen careers, in their spare time, they worked endlessly and tirelessly at building, renovating and beautifying several homes over the last four decades. Whatever home they lived in, it was obvious that they worked as a team to custom design it inside and out. Whatever home they lived in, the door was always open to family and friends. As soon as someone walked through that door, Elaine would do whatever it took to make a person feel comfortable and welcome. After retirement Elaine and Don also took time out to travel. They went to Cuba, Hawaii, Mexico, across Canada, and finally decided to join the Canadian snowbirds in Arizona throughout the majority of the winters. Elaine really enjoyed her time there and looked forward to returning. Elaine’s dedication to, and unconditional love for her family was immeasurable. Her entire world revolved around her children and grandchildren and she would do absolutely anything for them. The needs of her family were always first and foremost. She was a loving, loyal, and supportive partner to Don as well. She was the hub of the family and she will be so greatly missed. Left to mourn is her husband Don, sons Brad Mair and Jeff (Chu-Chu Kenchenten), daughter Jennifer Mair (Mike Porter), grandson Neriah Mair, granddaughter Jasper Mair and step grandchildren Hannah and Eddie Porter. Elaine was predeceased by her parents Ed and Anne Chernoff and younger brother Ed Chernoff. The family would like to thank the Castlegar emergency first aid responders, the emergency response team at the Trail Regional Hospital for their quick and compassionate care, The Castlegar Funeral Chapel, as well as all the wonderful people who have come by the house with food, support, love and understanding. A service was held Wednesday, July 24th 2013 at the New Life Assembly Church. In lieu of flowers or gifts baskets, donations to the family can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

July 14, 1975 to July 16, 2013 Jessica was a warm and loving person who touched the heart of all that knew her. She will be greatly missed by her family, friends and all the four legged creatures on this planet. She was predeceased by her Mother Pauline, and her brother John. She leaves behind her two sons Dylan and Caleb, a sister Denise and her Uncle Paul. She was born in Castlegar and resided for most of her life in Shoreacres, BC. She loved being with animals and children and was both a farrier and a school bus driver. She loved the outdoors and enjoyed sledding down the slope of Shoreacres beach, swimming in the Slocan River and camping. Jessica’s laugh was beautiful, as was her sense of humour and wit. A Celebration of Life will be held at 2pm on July 26th at 2619 Shoreacres Road.
John Kazakoff With very sad and heavy hearts, the family of John Kazakoff of Ootischenia wishes to announce his unexpected passing at the Castlegar and Community Health Centre on Thursday, July 11, 2013, blessed with 64 years of life. John was born in Grand Forks on July 22, 1948 to parents Nancy and Peter Kazakoff. At a young age, he and his family moved to Kinnaird, where John grew up. He got all his early schooling in the Castlegar area and graduated from Stanley Humphries in 1967. He became a Technician in training after graduating from BCIT in 1971. John met Loretta Negrave and on June 23, 1974, in Nelson they were married. He worked for BC Hydro and then ran Purnell Distributors from 1983 to 1999. Always wanting to expand his family, he adopted two children from Romania. John was also an avid member of the Kootenay Men’s Choir and many other USCC activities.
Nolan Michael “Misha” Saliken It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Nolan Michael “Misha” Saliken on Friday. July 5, 2013 at the age of 24 years in Robson, BC. Born in Nelson and raised in Castlegar BC, Misha experienced many activities as a child, snowboarding, hockey, baseball, wake-boarding and swim club to name a few, plus music interests such as piano and drums. But his main passion was dirt bikes and snowmobiles, where he defined the word “fearless”. He earned his journeyman certificate as an electrician through Selkirk College, and worked at various projects in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan with the IBEW. Although he left us too soon, Misha’s wonderful smile, infectious laugh and electric personality will leave a legacy of love and respect that will be carried forward by family and a large circle of friends forever. Born on July 31, 1988 and predeceased by his grandparents, Misha is survived by parents Peter and Sarah of Raspberry, sister Reena, girlfriend Chelsea Watkin, and many aunts, uncles and cousins. Funeral services were held at the Brilliant Cultural Centre on Friday, July 12, 2013, with burial at Ootischenia cemetery under the care of Castlegar Funeral Chapel.
Thank You Recently tragic news shattered our lives forever. Immediately, family and friends began to fill our home with their prayer, their flowers, their gifts and most of all, their love. We wish to thank Bill Strilaeff and the Castlegar Funeral Chapel for their guidance. We wish to thank Peter Zaitsoff for conducting the funeral service with such respect. We wish to thank the singers for their beautiful voices and the USCC cooks for the delicious luncheon. We would like to thank the Ootischenia grave diggers. We thank Tyler Gienger and Misha’s dirt bike buddies for holding the memorial ride. Misha rode alongside you all. We thank Troy and Lion’s Head for letting everyone reminisce and celebrate.
He was predeceased by his parents and his brother Peter.
We thank Justin Evin and HTR for the T-shirts and stickers. We treasure them.
Left to mourn his loss is his loving wife of 39 years Loretta, son Jacob, daughter Caitlin, sisters Janice Konkin and Katherine Horcoff, nephews Troy and Darrin Konkin and Tim Horcoff, aunts, cousins and many wonderful friends. Honorary family included Mike and Therese O’Connor.
Joey Orton and his song touched us all. We would like to thank Jessica Samarodin and Rob Conkin for their video tribute.
Funeral Services were officiated by Peter Relkoff at the Brilliant Cultural Centre on Thursday, July 18, 2013 followed by interment in Park Memorial Cemetery in Castlegar. Arrangements were in care of Castlegar Funeral Chapel.
Misha’s smile touched so many that if we missed anyone we apologize, but we thank you all. So many from the community put aside their own worries to give us strength. We are very fortunate to live amongst you. Misha will walk and ride with us all forever and we miss him dearly, RIP our son, brother, nephew, cousin, and dear friend.
Peter, Sarah, Reena
