Serhiy Popovych

Serhiy was born in Mala Tokmachka. In 2015, he began working on the railway as a trackman in the Polohy track division.

His son Serhiy remembers his father as a strong man who practiced judo from childhood and participated in many competitions. His father worked hard, provided for the family, willingly took care of household chores and farming, and taught his son to "work with his hands."

48-year-old railway worker Serhiy Popovych was killed on November 10, 2023, in the village of Mala Tokmachka, Zaporizhzhia region, as a result of an artillery shelling: a shell exploded near their home. Serhiy's wife, Svitlana Ivanivna, was injured and died two weeks later in intensive care.

Serhiy Popovych and his wife Svitlana Ivanivna became victims of a cynical enemy shelling, dying two weeks apart.

Serhiy Popovych is survived by his son Serhiy.

The team of the Polohy track division of JSC "Ukrzaliznytsia" honors Serhiy Popovych and his wife Svitlana Ivanivna with deep, unutterable sorrow. Eternal memory to the innocently fallen!
