Jackie Dennis "Jack" Wozniak

In Loving Memory of Jackie Dennis “Jack” Wozniak, age 78 years, of Maumee, Ohio

With a heavy heart, we announce the passing of Jack Wozniak, our beloved dad, husband to his late wife Sharon, brother, and grandpa (Ampa). Jack departed this world on Monday, April 8, 2024, after a short battle with cancer. Though the battle was brief, his strength and resilience were truly remarkable. He continued to show his strength and wit, sharing his humor with those around him during his final days.

Born on September 29, 1945, Jack was a proud Navy veteran. He retired from Chrysler in his 50's and he and Sharon moved to Baldwin, Michigan. There, they lived on Hamlin Lake for many years before moving back to Toledo to be closer to their family.

Jack will be remembered for his outgoing personality, wit, humor, and his roles as husband, friend, brother, father, grandfather, and neighbor. His passions included wood carving, fishing, exercising at the YMCA, spending time with his best buddy and grandson, Jack Tanner, sharing crude jokes, and above all, being there for his daughters. In his final days, when asked what he was most proud of, he said, 'my daughters’. Knowing our dad meant receiving a kiss on the lips and a big hug at every hello and good-bye. He was married to his beloved wife, Sharon Wozniak, for 52 years. With Sharon's recent passing, it seems they were destined to reunite.

Jack is survived by his daughters Amy Tanner (David) and Tara Wozniak (Mike Rochford); his sister Sharon Blalock; his brother Terry Wozniak (Karen); and grandchildren Kate, Jack, Erin, and Elizabeth (Evan). He is preceded in death by his wife Sharon, father Wallace Wozniak, mother Marie Miskow and Sharon’s parents Stan and Louise Morton.

A celebration of Jack's life will be held on Saturday, April 13, 2024, in the Maison-Dardenne-Walker Funeral Home, 501 Conant St., Maumee. Visitation will be held from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. with a memorial service immediately following. A luncheon for family and friends will follow the service. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Hospice Northwest Ohio.

As we mourn our dad, it is comforting to know that in the end, he said, 'It’s time for me to see Sharon'.

We will deeply miss you forever dad and we will carry on your legacy by always doing the right thing. Rest in peace and we will forever be waiting for you to make us laugh again.
