Biography
[edit]Adam Boniecki claimed that Amvrosii Krushelnytskyi had a brother in law, Ivan (1830–1902), a Greek Catholic priest of Stara Yahilnytsia.[4]
Krushelnytskyi graduated from the Buchach Gymnasium at the Basilian Fathers' Monastery and the Lviv Theological Seminary (1872).[3]
Served as a parish priest in the villages of Ozeriany, Soroky, Biliavyntsi, Stari Petlykivtsi, Osivtsi, and Bila, where he led choirs and amateur theaters.[3]
He played the violin and piano. At anniversary concerts, he conducted the choir of the Ruska Besida Society in Ternopil. He was friends with Ivan Franko,[5] corresponded with Mykhailo Pavlyk and other progressive cultural and educational figures.[3] Because of this, he had an unfavorable attitude of some of the then leaders of the UGCC.[6]
Krushelnytskyi promoted the intellectual and musical development of children. In 1903, an artistic monument of white marble was erected on his grave in the village of Bila,[7] which was brought from Florence at the expense of his daughter Solomiya; the epitaph reads: "To the best husband, the best father, honor to his mind, honor to his heart".[3]
