Vira Palamar

Vira Palamar, 89, of Syracuse, passed away peacefully on Monday at home.

Originally from Ukraine, Vira immigrated to the United States in 2013, where she made her home and continued to cherish the traditions and faith that were so important to her.

Vira was a devoted member of First Ukrainian Pentecostal Church, where she enjoyed singing and sharing her faith with her church family. She found great joy in cooking, especially making pierogies, and took pride in preparing meals for those she loved. Above all, Vira treasured her family and the time they spent together. She will be remembered for her warmth, her faith, and the love she shared with those closest to her.

Vira was predeceased by her husband, Franko; parents, Petro and Yaroslava Mizerniy; and sons, Viktor and Volodymyr.

Surviving are her daughter, Nadia (Stephan) Mostriansky of Syracuse; eight grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren; and four great-great-grandchildren.

A service to honor Vira’s life will be held on Sunday, November 8, 2026, at 6 p.m. at First Ukrainian Pentecostal Church, 3875 Warners Rd., Syracuse. A second service will follow on Monday, November 9, 2026, at 10 a.m. at the church.
