George Stephen Jezierski

Blaine, MN - George Stephen Jezierski, 89, slipped away from his earthly confines on September 30, 2025. His parents, Stephen and Helen Jezierski, along with sister Doris Koepp, brother John Jezierski and son-in-law Dan Krekelberg, preceded him in death. He is survived by his wife, Marlene, daughters and their partners Becky and Steve Johnson, Barb and Kurt Sieracki, and Jackie Krekelberg; grandchildren and their partners Nick Nyhammer and Nicole Levercon, Alyssa and Stephen Sorenson, Leah and Michael Janssen, Amanda Nyhammer and John Paul Kelly, Jacob Krekelberg, Laura and Sam Maxwell, Abby Krekelberg, and five great grandchildren-Alexandra, Clara, Avery, Brooks and Dominic. Mere words fail to describe the man he was; thoughtful, kind, empathetic, generous, funny, wise, easygoing, slow to anger. Family was always first. As a husband he was all of those things plus loyal, and incredibly patient. As a father and grandfather he was giving, selfless, helpful, strong, and supportive, a ready source of comfort and help. His love was unconditional. He consistently used gentle patience and delighted all with his clever humor and playful teasing. He was a loyal Super Fan especially for the Gustie's (Gustavus Adolphus) women's hockey team and his granddaughter athletes. Many were amused by his talented jerry rigging of cars, boat motors, household devices, most anything needing fixing. He preferred shopping for bargains at Goodwill yet was generous with his family. George is treasured by a host of friends and acquaintances. Some said he was a second father. George taught math and science at Centennial High School, coached football and wrestling, and worked hard for thirteen years negotiating salaries for his colleagues. He served as chair of his church's parish council and spent many years working on the church's first communion program. Golf and travelling cross country on his Gold Wing with his wife were his passions. His students respected him. He established firm boundaries, always with respect. Many said they would not have learned math if not for him. George's leave-taking has left a gaping hole. He will be sorely missed. A celebration of his life will be held on Sunday, November 23, at the Tavern at Greenhaven Golf Course clubhouse, 2800 Greenhaven Road, Anoka. Gather at 2pm, program and light lunch to follow. In lieu of flowers, send memorials to Hope 4 Youth, 2665 4th Ave, #40, Anoka, 55303.
