ś.p. Jerzy Galas

Born in Poland, he built his life through hard work, including many years with CP Rail. His greatest love was his wife, Teresa, and his biggest passion was restoring cars, bringing old machines back to life with patience and skill. Jerzy loved to fish, and he was a gardener who planted flowers season after season so Teresa would always have something beautiful to look at. He taught those he raised to stay with the hard things, to never wait to be rescued, and to show up — lessons that live on in them still. Beneath the hardness was a man who loved the only way he knew how. He is carried forward, with love, by those who were in his heart. Rest now, the fight is over, and there is only peace. The Rosary will be recited at Our Lady Queen of Peace Polish Parish, 2111 Uxbridge Drive N.W, Calgary on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at 11:30 a.m. The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 12:00 p.m. Interment will follow at Queen’s Park Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to the Alzheimer Society of Canada
