Obituary
Polaski, Jerzy--
It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Jerzy Polaski on Wednesday, March 8, 2023 surrounded by his family at home at the age of 76.
Loving husband of Elżbieta for 51 wonderful years. Predeceased by his parents Aniela and Edmunt Polaski. Dear brother of Sławek, Jadwiga, Ewa, and Adam. Loving father of Agnieszka Henriquez (Mario) and Piotr Polaski (Sonia). He will be missed by grandchildren Victoria, Christopher, Ethan and Suzette. Treasured uncle to many nieces and nephews. He will be missed by all his friends and extended family.
Moving to Canada from Poland, Jerzy will be fondly remembered for his strong-willed can-do attitude. There was nothing he could not fix. He had a long career at Guelph Tool & Die (25+) years as well as various business ventures. A long-life learner he had continued his studies into his 70s with continuing English and computer classes and will be known for his passion for politics and history and his perfect gardening skills.
The family would like to extend their gratitude and support for Bayshore Home Palliative Care specifically Dr. Brodovsky, and nurses Jessica and Laura. We’d also like to thank friends and neighbours for their love and care during his extensive battle with cancer.
