Edward GRODECKI Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 26, 2017.
GRODECKI, Edward August 10, 1955 - September 20, 2017 The family of Dr. Edward Grodecki mourns his sudden and tragic passing in a plane crash on the night of September 20, 2017. The great kindness, compassion, dedication and loyalty with which he treated his patients, colleagues and friends will leave a lasting impression on all who knew him. Ed lived a full and happy life, making the most of every moment. Family meant the world to Ed. This was expressed in everything he aimed to achieve and accomplished. He will be sadly missed by his mother Alice Grodecki, his in-laws Sophie and Joe Paluch, as well many other family members and dear friends. He leaves behind his wife Trish, who was the love of his life, and their two daughters Natasha and Savannah, of whom he was extremely proud. These three women were the center of his life and he was their superman. The family would like to extend their deep appreciation to all of the search and rescue teams involved, whose professional and tireless work throughout a 39-hour search has allowed the family to say their final goodbyes. Friends may call at the Turner & Porter Yorke Chapel, 2357 Bloor St. W., at Windermere, east of Jane subway, from 3-5 and 7-9 p.m. Wednesday and 2-4 and 6-8 p.m. Thursday. Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, September 29th at St. Andrew's Catholic Church, 47 Reynolds St., Oakville, at 10:30 a.m. In lieu of fresh flowers, please contact Sheridan Nurseries (905-624-3722) to contribute to the memorial garden which will be planted in Ed's honor at the family's home. Memorial donations may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Canada. Online condolences may be made through www.turnerporter.ca

Faith, Humility, Humanity, Honour, guided Ed. He gave me strength; and through his spirit of support, guidance, and morality, he inspired me to stand straighter, and to expect more of myself. He walked through life, and his footsteps left deep impressions of his life, filled with unconditional Love and Committment to his Family, and his Faithful pledge to help humanity. Forever Grateful, Friend.

Ed was a business associate and friend of my father's (Nick Doiu). I met him on several occasions throughout my life and he was kind enough to give a surgical opinion to my wife on short notice. I always looked at him as one of the most interesting men in the world (like the commercial). My deepest condolences to his family.

We were shocked to hear of Ed's sudden passing. He was a dear friend and someone who will be deeply missed by our whole family.

My deepest condolences on the passing of Ed. Professionally we all knew him as an exceptional Oral Surgeon. Having spent private leisure time with him over the years, I got to know Ed on a personal level and found him to be a sincere and compassionate person. It was an honour and privilege to call him my friend. We will all miss him but our memories will always put a smile on all our faces.

It is a sad time to hear of Dr. Grodecki' S passing..always a gentleman and a dedicated Doctor to his patients.
I had the privilege to work with him at Etobicoke General over the years he worked there. He had special patients who had many needs and that's who he was attracted to assist in this life.
I can say at the end of a long day in the OR he always turned to his anaesthetist and said 'Thank you' and exited with his goodbye.
Not often heard in our busy world.
He will be remembered as an honourable
man of integrity in the medical profession.
May all our prayers be a comfort to his family, wife and girls.
Sincerely
Elaine Beccarea RN

Sincere sympathy to you and family. Ed was a tremendous guy and we will all miss his smile and clever ways.

Please accept our family's deepest condolences on your loss. Ed was a brother Knight, a fellow parishioner and a most generous person. At church, he stepped up more than once to assist our ushering team when someone was in medical distress during Mass. Ed's goodness was always in plain sight. We are sad to hear of this terrible tragedy. God bless.
