THE 35TH REGULAR CONVENTION
OF THE UKRAINIAN NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
We mourn their passing...
Delegates to the 35th Regular Convention of the Ukrainian National
Association paid tribute with a moment of silence to UNA leaders and activists
who had passed away since the previous convention. Following are the names

supreme was used in UNA terminology until 1994 when an amendment to the
UNA By-Laws dropped that appellation; e.g., Supreme Assembly became General
Assembly.)
