OLEG Y. SYCHEVSKY

I worked with Oleg between 1998-2010 at two different companies. One of the funnier memories is Oleg getting chewed out by his boss because he charged a $800 bottle of wine on a company trip. 😂 I never heard Oleg say a bad word about anyone. RIP Oleg.

I only met Oleg for the first time earlier this year on a trip out west with the paragliding/paramotoring community from Morningside. I distinctly remember our initial introduction at the hotel during a briefing prior to the first day of flying. He entered the room (30 minutes late...haha) with a distinct (and very noticeable) rockstar swagger! I remember finding myself immediately drawn to his vibrant personality. Not having met him prior, I observed the jubilant greeting he received from others in the room who knew him well and this only served to reinforce my initial summation of the man. Oleg was indeed somone I wanted to get to know better. Throughout the trip that week he made me laugh with his comedic ways and undoubtebly made me appreciate his unwavering zest for life. While it was most unexpected that his departure would come so soon and so suddenly, I cannot help but think that while he left many days on the table, I can only believe that he made the very most out of the ones he was able to enjoy while here. To summize, he made a very positive impression on me. I did not get a chance to meet or know members of his family but I want convey my deepest sympathies for your tremendous loss. Im sorry I could not attend his celebration of his life tonight being away from the area for work, but rest assured you all were certainly in my thoughts today and I know my fellow pilots from the Morningside community echoed this sentiment in my absence. Farewell to you Oleg, you will be missed, but may you always enjoy blue skies and perfect flights, forever on the other side.

I didn't know Oleg very well. However he was one of those people that brightened the lives of those he encountered, with a friendly smile and demeanor that exuberated a joy. I pray for his family and friends as they deal with his passing. I know he left the world a better place than he found it. He will be missed.

This is a tragedy. To my best friend. It pains me that I cannot be there to hold you and support you at this time. We loved Oleg so much. What a great human being. He was taken much too soon. We just weren't done having fun yet. Oleg brought such joy and happiness into our lives. We will always cherish the good times we had and remember his fun loving spirit as he lives on through our thoughts and memories. Andrea, my love is with you and the family. When you dropped me at the airport, I didn't think my last hug would have to work so hard. I miss you and love you so much.

I also have fond memories of my friend and co-worker Oleg and along with many others I feel the shock of his loss. I'm sincerely sorry for the grief his family must feel losing him so soon. As Frank has mentioned, Oleg was someone I counted on for a kind word, a smile or a quick offer to help with whatever I was dealing with. He certainly made a great impression with his team of friends and co-workers. You are missed my friend... I pray you rest peacefully.

To Andrea and Oleg's family and friends, Please accept my deepest condolences for your loss. I had the pleasure of working with Oleg at MorphoTrust USA, where his kind words, sound advice, and contagious smile made even our most challenging days brighter. His light will be missed, but like a candle, his light was shared often and lives on in all the people whose lives he touched. I am grateful to have known him and mourn his passing. Thank you.
