In Memoriam: Igumen Gennady (Eykalovich) A beloved member of the St. Tikhon’s Monastery brotherhood and Seminary community, Igumen Gennady (Eykalovich), 93, fell asleep in the Lord at Saint Tikhon’s Monastery the morning of January 10, 2008. Born in Pinsk, in what is today Belarus, on September 11, 1914, Fr. Gennady received a Master’s degree in economic studies in Warsaw. From 1940 to 1942, he was imprisoned in a Soviet concentration camp in Siberia. After his release from prison, he served in the Second Polish Corps, Eighth Allied Army, in Italy until 1945. After World War II, he worked in England with the Polish Resettlement Corps, a unit that helped Polish soldiers unwilling to return to communist Poland transition into life in the West. In 1948 he received monastic tonsure and began studies at Saint Sergius Orthodox Theological Institute in Paris, France. He was ordained to the diaconate in 1949 and to the priesthood the following year. After completing his studies in 1953, he relocated to the United States, where he taught Old Testament, dogmatic theology, philosophy, logic, and psychology at Saint Tikhon’s Seminary. He also served as the Seminary’s inspector from 1955 until 1959. In 1972, Father Gennady received a canonical release from the Orthodox Church in America to serve in Europe. He returned to the U.S. in 1982 and lived in retirement in California. In recent years, he resided in a nursing home near Saint Tikhon’s Monastery. His Beatitude, Metropolitan HERMAN, presided at funeral services at Saint Tikhon’s Monastery Church on Saturday, January 12, followed by interment in the Monastery cemetery. May Fr. Gennady’s memory be eternal!
