In the early morning hours of August 22nd, our world crashed. We lost our matriarch, our mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. Maria “Mary” Zabukovec née Szelazek passed away after a battle with cancer that would put the bravest warrior to shame.

Predeceased by her loving husband Peter. Remembered with love by her children Robert and Peter (Erin), and by her grandchildren Connor and Ronan. Cherished by her sisters Irene (Henry), Jadwiga (late Mike), Basia (Kazik), and Josephina (late Hasiak). Loved by her nieces, nephews, and friends. We are all so inspired by your strength, your love, your beautiful garden, and your delicious food.

We love and miss you. Kochany Cię.
