Jarema Korytko Obituary

Jarema "Jerry" Korytko, age 63, of Dunkirk, N.Y., passed away on Tuesday, January 31, 2017, at UPMC Hamot, in Erie, Pa., following a lifelong fight with multiple health issues. Jerry was born in Dunkirk, N.Y., on May 18, 1953, a son of the late Jurij "George" and Zina Korytko.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by one nephew, Adrian Deputat.

Survivors include his wife of 41 years, Lorraine Dach Korytko; two children, Elizabeth MacDougall (Jasen) of Derby, N.Y. and Michael Korytko of Dunkirk, N.Y.; and two grandchildren, Taelor Jean Korytko of Cassadaga, N.Y. and Ian John MacDougall of Derby, N.Y. He also fondly thought of his neighbors, Megan and Matthew Levan, as his "faux" grandchildren. Jerry is also survived by two sisters, Ksenia Deputat (Zenon) and Larisa Aldrich (Scott); two nephews, Myron and Jurij Deputat; and two nieces, Kimberly Dach McDonald and Julia Aldrich.

No calling hours will be observed. A Celebration of Life Service will be conducted at a later date.
