Gary Zalewski Obituary
On July 12, 1956 Gary Zalewski was born to Tadeusz Zalewski and Irene Marzec. He passed Saturday morning February 7th 2026. He now joins his parents in eternal rest.
Gary was a proud union member in the Chicagoland area and retired to his beloved land in beautiful UP Michigan. An avid fisherman and hunter he lived his life fully with a passion for the beauty that nature brings. He was loved by both family and friends alike, and he will be greatly missed as he sets his journey forward to his next adventure.
Family requests privacy as they navigate these tender moments. A private gathering will be held at a later date.
Beacon Cremation & Funeral Service, Covell-Traverse City Chapel is in charge of arrangements.
