It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Jerzy (Urich) Chwialkowski, cherished husband, father, and grandfather, on Monday, July 29, 2024 at the age of 77, after a sudden illness. An architect by profession, a musicologist by avocation, an author and prolific craftsman, he was a genuine Renaissance man. Jerzy was born in Elbląg, Poland in 1947. While an architecture student at the University of Warsaw, he won a Polish national Judo championship in 1967. He emigrated to Canada in 1976 and practiced architecture in Calgary, serving as the Master Planner of the West Edmonton Mall, among other projects. He moved to Ottawa with his family in 1989 and devoted himself to writing in his retirement. He is the author of The Da Capo Catalog of Classical Music Compositions (Da Capo Press, 1996), Fantasia for a String Quartet (CreateSpace, 2011), and Farewell Inn (publication forthcoming.) In his spare time, Jerzy relished studying philosophy, especially Platonism, Advaita Vedanta, and Zen Buddhism, and taking long walks along the Ottawa River. He could build and repair anything and lovingly crafted meticulous wooden frames for his wife’s oil paintings. He was beloved by his wife of 52 years, the artist Margaret (Kolecka) Chwialkowska, daughters Luiza Chwialkowska Savage and Sandra Chwialkowska, son-in-law Charlie Savage, and grandchildren William, Peter, and Sloane.
The family will receive friends on Tuesday, August 6, 2024 from 2pm – 3pm at the West Chapel of Hulse, Playfair & McGarry, 150 Woodroffe Avenue, (at Byron Avenue), Ottawa. Liturgy of the Word with family eulogies will be held in the Chapel at 3pm. A reception will follow.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Jerzy’s honour can be made to the Foundation of the Queensway Carleton Hospital where he received outstanding care in his final days.
