Greg Zyszkiewicz, a resident of Milwaukee’s south side, was senselessly and tragically taken from his family and friends last week as he performed his job as a City of Milwaukee Department of Neighborhood Services Special Enforcement Agent.

By all accounts, Greg was a extraordinary family man, married to his wife, Ola, for 40 years. Greg was passionately dedicated to the happiness of his children and grandchildren. With each new story we read, we learn more about this amazing man—a U.S. Army veteran, past Scout master, multi-talented handyman, avid marathon and endurance athlete including two summits of Pikes Peak and in addition to his City job he continued a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel delivery route for 20 years to fund family vacations.

In honor of Greg’s amazing life, The Packing House Restaurant donated $1 for each fish fry sold throughout the day on Friday, March 31, to a fund set up to help the Zyszkiewicz family. Together with our generous customers we raised more than $3,000.

“Greg was a selfless, unforgettable, charismatic and humble man who will be deeply missed.” (from Greg’s obituary)
