Palmer, MA - Ralph J. Zebrowski, 65, passed away September 11th, 2025 at Baystate Medical Center. Born in Palmer, on June 16, 1960, he was the son of the late Joseph A. Zebrowski and Blanche L. (Jesky) Zebrowski. Ralph was born and raised in Palmer, where throughout his life volunteered much of his love and time at the St. Stans Polish Club and Pulaski Park. His homemade Kapusta was a club favorite. He was an engineer and machinist for many years at the former Tambrands/Proctor & Gamble in Three Rivers. He went on to work for the Town of Palmer for 10 years, and then the Town of Warren for the past 3, both in their sewer departments. An engineer by profession, he was also an avid car and motorcycle enthusiast, spending much of his time fixing and restoring them. When his daughter Heather was born, she became his whole world and that creative, tinkering side turned to helping her with any idea she had including things like making her own make up and showing her how to replace her own car's brakes. They were always side by side, in everything that the other was doing. His love and his memory will forever be cherished by his daughter along with his two sisters, Sandra Zebrowski and Marie Zebrowski and her significant other, Michael Pigney. He is predeceased by his brother-in-law Ed Kowynia in 2022. A visitation will be held Sunday, September 21st, 2025 from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. at the Beers & Story Palmer Funeral Home with remembrances shared at 1 p.m. Ralph had a deep love for dogs, especially his loyal companions Weston and Loretta. In his memory, donations may be made to the Sterling Animal Shelter, a cause close to his heart. Sterling Animal Shelter, 17 Laurelwood Road, Sterling, MA 01564
