Stephen was one of my mother's (Olga Melnyk, daughter of Semeon and Olga) 9 brothers and sisters. He was one of my favorite uncles, and lived and died in Mt Carmel, PA. He was married to Irene who was my Godmother, and dear person who predeceased Uncle "Stevie." They had about 5 boys....whose names I now don't remember, at age 60. He was short, very sweet, kind, and soft spoken. I saw him in 1979 when he accompanied my father, Peter Krill (husband of Olga Melnyk) to my house when I moved here in July 1979. The last time I saw Uncle Steve was my Mom's 70th birthday party in my home in Lafayette Hill, PA on Feb. 27, 1986. My Mom died within months of cancer on July 2nd, 1986. PLEASE DO LET ME KNOW HOW/IF YOU ARE RELATED TO ME. I have been an attorney since 1976, but after several types of practice, I became mainly stuck in my house with spinal injuries from rear-enders (at red lights) that! started only days before my Mom died on7/2. Uncle Stevie attended her funeral that I managed for my family, although I'm the youngest of 3 children: me, Andrea, then brother, Peter (5 years older), then Kathleen Ann, 9 years older. I've been pretty much alone because of my injuries. Hope YOUR life is still going great! Hope you get this! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
