ROBERT ZEGARSKI Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 18, 2010.
Robert "Ziggy" Zegarski, the East Trenton son that gave Chicago fun, passed away Wednesday, August 12 to be reunited with long-missed parents, Edward and Alice. Proud father of Courtney and Jack; loving husband to Erica; "adopted" son of Aunt Rose, obsessed fan of the Boston Red Sox, All-American soccer player, forever young, he leaves behind friends and relatives with countless memories of laughter and joy. Although his life may have been cut short, it was by no means short-lived. We will all miss him. Private memorial will be held in Chicago, IL. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to jimmyfund.org, an organization both Ziggy and Ted Williams supported.

Erica, Courtney, Jack and Aunt Rose - I was stunned to hear the news that Ziggy had left us. A friend for almost 50 years, we shared many good times growing up in Trenton. When we talked, the conversation always included family and friends; they were most important to him (other than the Red Sox). May the memories of the times you shared comfort you. My sincerest condolences. God, I loved that guy. I look forward to the day we'll see each other again. Love......Tom Stout

To Erica, Courtney and Jack,

It's hard to put into words how I am feeling since the passing of Ziggy. He was such a giving, vibrant, caring and one of kind. I am very blessed to known Zig and was honored to have him as part of my wedding 19 years ago. Our friendship was special from day we met in 1984 as colleagues, as a boss and mentor for my career. The stories are endless and memories are forever.
Zig I know we will meet again and may you RIP.

Love ya,
Burgs

To days spent on the rocker as kids. The hundred baseball cards flipped and lost during those Ellis & Heil summers.

We all still speak of you as if it was yesterday.

Can't believe we lost another East Trenton boy. He was one of the good ones and he will be sorely missed. Unless I get Altzheimer's I'll be telling Ziggy stories until the day that I'm gone.

My condolences to Erica, Courtney, Jack and the Zegarski family.

In our lives we have many people who we consider friends. Ziggy was one of a kind and my dearest of friends. Zig we send our love to you and all your family, will miss you everyday.

We shared our love for baseball and I am sure wherever you are, it is game seven of the Red Sox/Cubs World Series and your enjoying it with Ted Williams at your side.

Sleep well my friend.

I enjoyed our 60 minute rides each way to a customer in Rockford where we discussed Rock and Roll music, politics and Red Sox /Yankee topics. Ziggy was always upbeat and a person who always looked out for his guests and customers who were all his friends.I am very proud to say Ziggy is my friend.
