He found peace being surrounded by family at the Grace Hospice. Vladimir leaves to mourn his wife Marianna Carol Hryniuk-Adamov, his daughters, Stephanie and Katya (James) and grandsons, Ilya and Lev, brother Nick (Sherey), niece Christine (Derek) and their children, Curtis and Mattias, nephew Michael Adamov, and Uncle Gary Seaman. Vladimir was predeceased by his devoted parents, Valentina Adamov (2018) and Dr. Eugene Adamov (2012), his beloved brother Alexander (1975), Adamov and Belkin grandparents, Aunt Marsha, Uncles, Peter and Paul, and in-laws, Stephania and Wasyl Hryniuk. Bob will also be fondly remembered by his brothers-in-law, William (Lynn) Hryniuk and Terry (Martha) Hryniuk and their families, as well as Belkin, Hryniuk, Burnside, Strutinsky, Smith, Skrypnyk, Shipman and Suderman relatives, his godchildren, church congregation, and dear friends. Vladimir was born July 14, 1953 in St. Boniface. In his youth, Vova cherished attending ORPR Russian Orthodox Camp in Illinois where he served in leadership roles and made lifelong friendships. Vlad attended the University of Manitoba and completed his B.Sc. with a specialization in Zoology. He was chosen Valedictorian for the class of 1975. He was a Natural Resource researcher for the Parkland Regional Development Corporation studying the water chemistry and fish ecosystems in Manitoba. He identified ecological connections and advocated for sustainable practices for lakes and rivers. Vladimir valued his collaboration in business ventures: The Great Canadian Travel Company, Canadian Control Power Systems, Martin Yachts, and an educational consulting company, Strategies for Success. Bob had an artistic and adventurous side. He studied Renaissance art in Europe, enjoyed painting, woodcarving, and playing classical guitar. He was a certified scuba diver and loved Caribbean diving excursions with his daughters. Dad was most in his element at the family cabin at Lake of the Woods where he enjoyed boating, tinkering, fishing, and hosting people. He was known for navigating rough waters, filleting fish with precision, visiting the library, chasing bears away and sharing his knowledge of the biodiversity of the boreal forest. Vladimir was a tonsured reader in the Russian Orthodox Church, choir director, and tenor who valued the preservation of liturgical music. His Orthodox faith was a source of great strength. Despite complex health challenges, Bob maintained an infectious sense of humour and quick wit. He took his cancer diagnosis with humility and a strong spiritual outlook. Thank you to the compassionate medical, spiritual, palliative care teams. Our family appreciates everyone who prayed, visited, and enhanced the quality of Vladimir's life. Prayers (Parastas) will be sung on Sunday, February 24 at 5:00 p.m. at Cropo Funeral Chapel, 1442 Main Street with Fr. Raphael Vereshack officiating. Funeral service will be held on Monday, February 25 at 10:00 a.m. at Holy Resurrection Russian Orthodox Church, 732 Alfred Avenue. Interment to follow in Brookside Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to Holy Resurrection Russian Orthodox Church for sanctuary renovations. Vechnaya Pamyat. Memory Eternal
