Obituary of Henry Ohochinsky

Henry Joseph Ohochinsky was born on July 17, 1942 at Foam Lake, Saskatchewan, a son of Nick and Mary (nee Stinkoway) Ohochinsky. He was raised in the area and following high school worked in several fields, including construction, but mostly worked as a painter and was known for his high quality work and attention to detail. As a boy he played hockey and in later years coached in the 1960's and into the mid 70's. This created some long term friendships for him and his family. He had a love for hunting and fishing and enjoyed doing this in the Par Hill and McBride Lake area where he built a cabin that he enjoyed for years. Along with his love of hockey and the Maple Leafs, he was a staunch Rider fan and took in many games over the years in person and watching on TV. He was an avid gardener and definitely had a green thumb as he always grew enough to share with family and friends. He will be sadly missed by his family and friends. Henry passed away on August 29th 2018 at the Regina General Hospital following a short battle with pneumonia. He was 76 years of age.
