Theodore "Ted" Henry Sienek

He was a loving brother to Heidi Brubacher (Tim), uncle to Tara Wasilka (Anton), Nathan Brubacher, and Ali Ford (Brian), great uncle to Ella and Ian Wasilka, and Scarlett and Georgia Ford. He is predeceased by his parents John (1994) and Sophia (2007) Sienek.

He will be immensely missed by his best friend of more than 50 years Stan Wojtaszynski, who remained a true and loyal companion right until Ted’s last breath.

Ted was a sports guy; in his younger days he was a talented baseball player, and recreational golfer. He enjoyed talking about sports and watching sports of any kind. He was also a voracious reader, enjoyed movies of all genres, and was an avid music fan and collector of vinyl.

Ted spent many years working at Kraus Carpets, where he built several friendly relationships with co-workers before his retirement.

The family would like to thank Dr. Benaroia of the renal clinic, the amazing nursing teams that provided Ted with his dialysis, and his care while a patient on the 5th floor north at Grand River Hospital, all the doctors, social workers and the home care workers.

There will be a private funeral for family, where we will reminisce with fond memories and say our final goodbyes to a man who loved his family more than he was able to express.

Ted’s final resting place will be Woodland Cemetery, where he will lay for eternity with his parents who loved him dearly.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Diabetes Canada or The Heart and Stroke Foundation be made instead.
