Our dear, caring, oldest sister, Irina, lost her beloved husband suddenly and unexpectedly as a result of a brain aneurysm. Arkadiy was a hard-working, loving husband and wonderful father to their 3 children. We have set up this fund per request of family and friends who want to alleviate some of the burden and support our sister and her 3 young children (plus another on the way) as they pick up the pieces from this traumatic life situation and learn to live without Arkadiy. We greatly appreciate your prayers, love and support. Please continue to pray for Irina and her children. https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/arkadiy-zhovkliy-obituary?pid=190733389
