Obituary of Richard John Smolak
February 5, 1952 – Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan
May 25, 2023 – Calgary, Alberta
Rick Smolak, beloved husband of Darlene Smolak (nee Scott) of Calgary, AB, passed away on Thursday, May 25, 2023 at the age of 71 years.
Rick was born in Moose Jaw, SK on February 5, 1952, and moved to Calgary, AB, in 1977. Rick graduated from the Saskatchewan Technology Institute as an Electrical Engineering Technologist.
Rick married Darlene in 1976.
Rick accomplished much through his life, a successful sales manager of fire alarms and life safety, spending 45 years with the same company, Edwards, but he was most proud of his family, his children, and grandchildren. He loved reading and puzzles, particularly word puzzles, Sudoku, and solitaire. His most memorable vacation was in 2022 when the whole family went to Disneyland, however, when asked he always said he loved Jamaica.
He will be most remembered for his incredible work ethic, his sense of humor, and his love of family and friends.
Besides his loving wife, Rick is survived by his two daughters, Tara Smolak and Dana Smolak; his son Jordan Smolak; his two grandchildren, Ashton Smolak, and Caden Smolak all of Calgary, AB. Rick is also survived by his two sisters and three brothers-in-law, Christine (Phil) Sandham of Regina, SK, Joanne (Colin) Barnes of Moose Jaw, SK, Rob Adams of Moose Jaw, SK, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
Rick was predeceased by parents, Jan and Czeslawa Smolak, father and mother-in-law, Calder and Ida Scott, and his sister Janet Adams.
