“Your dad was such an amazing person. He was very special to me. I am thinking about him everyday. He always so proud and happy to see his children getting together and having a great time.” “ I went through very difficult times over the past 4 years & your dad continued checking on me & praying for my recovery. I’ve known your dad for over 20 years, he’s a great man” “Thanks Jessica. I always think about your dad. He is my best friend and I am so sad that he has to go through this” “he was such a kind man, honestly and I can’t say enough about him and how much he loved you guys. He just adored you and how proud he was of all of his kids. I never met you but I feel like I knew a lot about you and your kids. It was surreal seeing them today and I just felt so sad for them knowing they had such a short time with your dad. He was just so amazing” “I miss you, I miss our conversations. I miss arguing with you over pump issues. Zbigniew I will never forget when you were there for me for many years. Supporting me and praying for me, and thanks to this- look I’m better, and it’s the blessings and support form you. I truly miss you…i can’t stress how much I miss you man. I pray for you all the time” “We spent a lot of time with Zbig every day for the last 3 yrs, I knew Zbig back when he worked on site before he went to Pickering. He was such a caring person and family was always first on his mind” “Zbig is lucky to have you all for his support. He always spoke very highly of all of his kids and his grand kids too, it meant a lot to me to be able to spend time with him”

Life story

My dad wasn’t just a regular dad. He was a “do anything for my kids” kind of dad. He loved his family and he was so proud of who we were becoming. Anyone that knew my dad, loved him. As he once said “remember how I lived was beautiful, don’t forget that”

Love you and miss you so much dad

My dad

My dad was one of the most special people in my life. He was the glue that held the family together. He was my go to for advise, he was my problem solver…he was the fixer of all things. And above all he loved us so damn much. I try to cling to the love he had and not his loss. I know you’re at peace now, and there’s no more pain. Like you told me that one night “don’t be sad, my life was amazing” and I’ll keep reminding myself of that. even though you are gone I can still feel you All around me. You’re at peace even though I am not. I love you dad, Love always, jessica
