Very saddened to hear this. It looks like Meryl Davis had started another GoFundMe, and the news was reported by Oleg’s friend Sergey Petrovskiy.

I cried when I saw the news. Oleg was one of my coaches. I treasured my lesson time with him. He helped me bring joy back to my skating. I hadn't worked with him in a few years, but I still think of him often. I will miss him.

May his soul rest in Peace.

So sad to hear this.

I had been wondering why he was no longer seen working in Estero with Marina's teams. I think the last I saw him was at 2020 Japan Nats with KanaDai.

May he rest in peace!
