She showed her love by giving.Uli was always an incredibly gifted artist. She could draw or paint anything, from portraits to abstracts. Her talent also extended to doing beautiful makeup, hair, and nails on herself and others. Another one of her favorite things to do was to go fishing, and she could tell you anything about all of the plants and animals at the creek, lake, or the nearest body of water she'd grown close to. Her love for nature and her desire to make her environment better wherever she saw the need to even extended to rehabilitating animals that were sick or injured.Ulyana attended RMA military Academy where is she graduated with honors. She also made an amazing Bonds with people that she was still in contact with all over the country.  She also was an amazing shooter , and also did lots of things like flying planes and what is part of what is it choir. She was an exceptional student. Ulyana loved her kids, Anthony and Axel, with every ounce of her being, they were her whole world.  In her short time that she had with them, she taught them so much about compassion, love, fishing, art, and caring for animals. She had an unwavering love for all animals, although ferrets held a special place in her heart.Reposing Tuesday, November 29. 2022 from 9:00 AM-1:00 PM at the O’Mara & Carpentieri Funeral Home.
