Obituary: Victor Sokolowsky (1918-2016) Victor Sokolowsky, faithful husband and father, returned to meet his Heavenly Father on , 18, 2016; two months shy from what would have been his 98th birthday. Victor was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on 19, 1918, the fifth of six children born to Catherine Elisabeth and Alexander Sokolowsky. Victors father immigrated from Russia in 1910 and eventually settled in Milwaukee. As was typical with many families who immigrated to America, Alexander came over first, leaving his wife and children to the care of family and friends; and with the help of relatives already living in America he obtained employment and a place to live in Milwaukee. A year later, Victors mother immigrated with her brother and her two living children in 1911. Although Victors parents came from Russia, their culture and language were German. Victors mother named him Reinhold Victor Sokolowsky, but the midwife who delivered Victor either didn understand Catherines pronunciation or didn know how to spell Reinhold and only wrote Victor Sokolowsky on his birth certificate. However, he was always known as Reinhold (or Reini) to everyone who knew him in Milwaukee; but to everyone west of the Mississippi River he was known as Victor. He offered to pay $1000 to any descendent who named their child Reinhold. (Ralphs son, Eric, came the closest in naming their oldest son Ryan Holt Sokolowsky). Victor never knew his sister Paulina, who died in Russia at the age of 9 months (1906). When Victor was 8 months old, his sister Bertha died at age 11 of the flu epidemic (1919). When Victor was 4 years old, his youngest sister Lydia died at age 3 having fallen into scalding water (1923). When Victor was 22, his father died of heart failure at age 57 (1941). When Victor was 29, his sister Viola died at age 30 in a train accident (1947) and when Victor was 30 his brother Alexander died from tuberculosis at age 40 (1949). This left only Victor and his mother. His parents were converts to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, having joined the Church in Milwaukee in 1915. Victor was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1928 at the age of 10. Two years later, while sitting in church on the stand with the twelve-year old deacons, a family with five girls just recently arrived from Germany walked in. Victor poked the deacon sitting next to him and said, Look at those greenhorns just off the boat. The oldest girl was 8 year old Elizabeth Jueschke. At the beginning of 1942 when men were being drafted, Victor was granted a deferment for being the sole support for his mother. He traveled out to Bremerton, Washington to visit his friend Norwin Berg. When Victor arrived in Bremerton in 1942, he had run out of money and had 50 cents in his pocket. His friend told him he could get work at the Bremerton Naval Shipyard. He eventually got on with the shipyards fire department. As the war progressed, Victors deferment as sole support for his mother ended; however, working in the fire department was deemed essential to national security. His deferment from being drafted continued and Victor began his 31-year career as a fireman. His career was interrupted in 1945 when at the age of 27 Victor decided it would be to his advantage to serve in the military in order to have preference in the fire department afterwards. Rather than be drafted into the Army, he enlisted in the Navy. World War II ended shortly after his joining the Navy and he was honorably discharged on 1, 1946 while stationed at the Naval Shipyard in Pensacola, Florida. He stopped in Milwaukee on his way back to Bremerton, and met with an old acquaintance-Elizabeth Jueschke, which was a turning point in his life. Not only did their relationship blossom, it also prompted Victor to become completely converted to the gospel. Once back in Bremerton, he became a faithful and active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and was ordained an Elder. Victor and Elizabeth Jueschke were married in the Salt Lake Temple on 6, 1947. Their seven children were born between 1948 and 1956. Victors mother lived with him and Elizabeth and their children from 1954 to 1957, and then his mother lived the last year of her life in a nursing home. Catherine Sokolowsky died on 13, 1958. She was 71. Victor has outlived a great number of people and in his later years, whenever he attended a funeral, he often complained that the deceased had cut in line ahead of him. It was while he worked in the shipyard as a fireman that Victor mastered the art of making pies, especially blackberry and rhubarb pies. Everyone loved his pies. He was also a master in crocheting afghans. Victor filled his life with service to his Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, to his wife and his children, to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and to his fellowman. Victor was not one to ask you if you needed help; he just knew what was needed to be done and did it. He served as a counselor to two bishops, Don Fry and Doug Beagley. his retirement he and Elizabeth first served a two-year mission (1982-1983) as full-time ordinance workers in the Seattle Temple. next served in the Germany Frankfurt Mission as proselyting and reactivation missionaries (1984-1985), laboring in the Siegen Branch for 16 months. Then they had the privilege of serving a third mission in the Frankfurt Temple (1987-1988), for which Victor was set apart as a sealer by Gordon B. Hinckley; and continued to perform that calling until 2011. This has been a great blessing to the Sokolowsky family in that Victor has had the opportunity to seal several of his grandchildren in a continued... |

Obituary: Aleksey Sergeyevich Sokolov was born on 21, 1925 in Minsk, Belarus. He passed away on 14, 2014 in Seattle, Washington. A man of success, Alexey, shares memories of his past: TESTIMONY OF ALEXEY SOKOLOV, HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR, FROM THE CITY OF MINSK IN THE SOVIET UNION The Nazis came into Minsk in of 1941. I was sixteen years old and lived with my father, my mother and my grandmother at the following address: Revolution Street 10, Apt. #5. At the beginning of , the Nazis announced that they were creating a ghetto for the Jews and also at this time, a rumor began to spread about a "big transferring." The street where my family and I lived was not on the territory chosen for the ghetto and so the Nazis transferred my family to Starqya Miasnitskoyal 2, a street that was in the ghetto. There we lived in a l0 meter room and everybody slept on the floor. The first raid on the ghetto Jews by the Nazis was on 7, 1941. At that time, they left the street where we lived alone. I was being forced to work in different places and the work was dirty and degrading. On 20, the Nazis began their second raid on the ghetto. My parents and I were forced to walk to a place called, "Tuchinka," that is now Olshevskogo Street and Prospect Pushkina. Long trenches were already prepared at the execution site. My parents, my grandmother, aunts, uncles and cousins were shot to death and fell into the trenches. I was shot and wounded at different places on my body (hand, foot, neck), but I was still alive and the Nazis did not know. That night I crawled out from the dead bodies, including members of my family, and returned to the ghetto. Jewish doctors in the ghetto treated my wounds which eventually healed. In 1943, I escaped from the ghetto and I joined the Soviet army. I lost my right hand on the front and became an invalid. Now I am 70 years old, but I still remember those terrible days of war and suffering. I remember the ghetto commandant Rikhter. He prided himself on being the executioner of Jewish people. I remember the Judenraut policemen with the names of Mirele, Elenka, and Epstein; they were traitors and murderers in the Minsk ghetto. Epstein was the first president of the Judenraut and was later humiliated by the Nazis. MEMORIES OF WAR MAKE LASTING FREINDSHIPS (Article by Kristina Bedareva) World War II was a tragedy for the entire world. However, much of the war was fought on Russian soil. The Soviet Union lost more than 27 million people. More than 20 million of those killed were civilians. In addition to the lost lives, the country's economy was devastated. More than 1,700 cities and towns were destroyed, 70,000 villages destroyed, and over 1000,000 farms were demolished. In the end, 25 million people were left without housing. The echo of that war is still in the hearts of those who miraculously survived and met on the banks of the Elba River, according to Aleksey Sokolov, President of the American Association of Invalids and Veterans of World War II. The Association, which includes members who immigrated to the United States from Russia and Eastern European countries, was founded seven years ago. Sokolov, a Seattle Housing Authority (SHA) resident, spoke last year at the Russian Consulate in Seattle during a commemoration of Victory Day. He spoke about how difficult it is for veterans to forget the war and the need for veterans to be together. The Association has 200 members, all of whom are survivors of the battles, the Leningrad blockage, the deprivation, and the death camps. All of them are US citizens of an average age of 75, who live in Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Kent, Renton and Everett. The organization helps families of veterans with English lessons and preparation for US citizenship exams. It also provides financial and psychological assistance when somebody is sick or dies. The veterans also get together for trips and outings, and go to local theaters, symphonies, museums, and parks. enjoy American holidays, but have not forgotten Russian ones, and still celebrate International Women's Day on 8, and Victory Day on May 9. Recently veterans gathered money for the families whose loved ones died in the accident with the Russian submarine Kursk. And though the members have been able to find support from each other, memories of was still linger. "Life is interesting and strange," Sokolov said. "We moved from one side of the planet to the other and left some holidays there, but there are several days during the years when it does not matter where you are or what language you speak. And Victory Day is among those days." "The bitter memory about that war does not go away. It's the greatest tragedy in human history. Russians, Jews, Ukrainians, Belorussians, other nations of the former Soviet Union, Americans, Canadians, British and French all fought fascism and were left behind forever in mass graves. We will never forget them." Visitation and funeral services will be held at Acacia Chapel on , 17, 2014, starting at 10AM - 12PM. Please join the family for a continued time of sharing and fellowship following services in Acacia's Reception Hall starting at 12PM. A wonderful man has left this life but will remain in our hears forever. THAT MAN IS A SUCCESS . . . Who has lived well, laughed often and loved much Who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task Who leaves the world better than he found it-whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul. Who never lacked appreciation of earth's continued... |
