It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Jacek Maleszyk on June 7, 2026, at the age of 62.

Born in Poland, Jacek immigrated to Canada in search of opportunity and a better future. Through hard work, determination, and perseverance, he built a life centered on family, friendship, and community. Those who knew Jacek will remember his sense of humour, generous spirit, and his special ability to bring people together. Whether sharing a laugh, hosting family and friends, or making sure everyone around him was comfortable and enjoying themselves, Jacek found genuine happiness in the happiness of others.

Above all else, Jacek was devoted to his family. He leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and cherished memories that will continue through those who knew him best.

Jacek is lovingly remembered by his mother, Irena; his wife, Zofia; his brother, Wojtek (Aneta), and family; his children, Kamil (Monica), Kris, Max (Samantha), and Kasia; and his grandchildren, Kamilek, Kacper, Julia, and Jacob. He will also be deeply missed by his extended family, friends, and all whose lives were touched by his kindness, humour, and generosity.

Though he is no longer with us, the lessons he taught, the laughter he shared, and the love he gave so freely will remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. The family welcomes all who knew and loved Jacek to join them in paying their respects during the visitation and funeral service as they gather to celebrate his life, share memories, and honour his legacy.
