Mr. Zalewski was a wonderful man who always wore a smile. My memories of him were being a loving husband and a caring father to my childhood friends David, Kelly, and Micheal. Also, I remember how "cool" he was by taking some of us kids to the movies and sneaking popcorn an snacks in for us, what a guy. May you rest in peace knowing how much Love you shared with others. I pray God gives the Zalewski family the strength and courage to continue living life to the fullest Mr. Zalewski would what this for his family and have it no other way. Many Prayers and much Love, Marianne Van Acker
