It is with profound sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of one of our physician assistant students and physiotherapy alum, Will Husarewycz, over the weekend from a cardiac event. He was a valued and respected member of our community whose kindness, commitment, and presence impacted students, colleagues, faculty, staff, and patients alike. His loss is deeply felt by all who have the privilege of knowing and working alongside him. Our thoughts are with Will's family, friends, loved ones. Our deepest condolences during this incredibly difficult time as those close to Will navigate this unimaginable loss.
We ask that you please respect the family's privacy as they navigate this incredibly difficult loss.
We recognize that news like this can affect each of us differently. As you connect with one another in the days ahead, we encourage everyone to extend patience, compassion, and kindness, recognizing that members of our community may be experiencing grief, shock, or uncertainty.
If you find yourself needing support, please know that you do not have to navigate this alone. We encourage you to reach out to someone you trust, whether that is a colleague, supervisor, faculty member, friend, or another source of support.
Learners who would like additional support are encouraged to contact Student Services at Bannatyne Campus, where professional counselling and mental health resources are available, including support related to grief and loss. Student Services can be reached at [email protected] or 204-272-3190.
