ADESSKY, Robert - Bob Adessky (aka; The Canadian Jewish Wonder Boy) died peacefully August 8, 2021 6 days short of his 95th birthday.
He lived a life devoted to his family, love of sport (amateur and professional wrestling, and fishing) and justice for the Jewish people.
Husband of 68 years to the love of his life, Shirley (Pepper).
Loving and wonderful father to Steven, Nancy Croitoru (Ken), and Jim (Zeeva Millman).
Dear brother and brother- in-law of Herman(Hy) and Myrna Adessky and Norma Pepper, the late Irving and Zelda Adessky and the late Pearl Pepper.His biggest joy were his grandchildren Jonathan Adessky, David and Erica Croitoru, Michael, and Danielle Adessky.
He was a proud, kind and eternally optimistic man, always quick to joke and never afraid to show his emotions.
His strength and actions in the face of injustice were balanced by his joy for life. His stories, cheers and songs will stay with us for many generations and were legend even in his life - with him as the greatest character of all.
Many thanks to the marvelous staff at Baycrest Apotex 2.
A graveside service will take place on Tuesday, August 10, 2021.
