John Szilasi Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Jack, preceded in death by his parents John and Kate, is survived by his partner Anna Palmer, children John, Ken, and Sandra, former spouse Bev, and seven grandchildren.
Jack was a man of sharp intellect, entrepreneurial drive, and unyielding spirit. His lifelong love of the outdoors-whether camping, sailing, riding motorcycles, hiking, archery, or shooting-reflected his pursuit of adventure and peace. He championed natural health and self-care, and his passion for politics fueled thoughtful conversations, inspiring others to stay engaged and informed.
He will be remembered for the generosity he extended to friends and strangers alike, and the insights he shared.
In accordance with his wishes, no formal service will be held. To share memories or condolences, please visit his memorial page: Forevermissed
