Jon M. "Jack" Robejsek

Jon M. “Jack” Robejsek, age 82 of Mentor, received his wings on Tuesday, January 28, 2025, surrounded by his family and comforted by the prayers of his many friends at David Simpson Hospice House, Cleveland. He was born May 23, 1942 in Cleveland. Jack was a retired Facilities Manager for Nook Industries in Cleveland, where he was employed for 34 years. During his tenure, the company expanded from 3 employees to over 300 and relocated to Cleveland from Beachwood. As in all aspects of his life, he was known as “Jack of All Trades,” no project too challenging, large, or detailed for him to lead a team or conquer himself. After growing up in and successfully raising, with the love of his life Patricia, their 5 children in Bedford, Jack and Pat loaded up the van and headed east, to Mentor that is, where they’ve resided for the past 37 years. Jack has been a devoted member of St. John Vianney Church in Mentor where he boldly proclaimed the Scripture readings as a Lector during Mass, and served on a number of committees including Respect Life and Rosary Group. He had a devotion to St. Padre Pio and was a member of the local namesake group. Somewhat of a low-key Renaissance man, Jack was in his element during, and thoroughly enjoyed, family celebrations, traveling, gardening, wine making, cooking, canning, leather making, building and renovating things, boating, fishing, camping, golfing, card playing, debating, and storytelling – oh, the stories - to name only some of his favorite and treasured pastimes. Survivors include his wife of 62 years: Patricia A. (Niedzwiecki) Robejsek; Children: Brian (Joanne) Robejsek, Jon (Patty) Robejsek, James Robejsek, Karen Marie Robejsek and Kathleen (Steve) Duricky; Grandchildren: Abigail, Adam (Fiancée: Evelyn Dyson) Robejsek, Marissa (Mario) Formichelli, Krista (Fiancé: Kade Kalinowski) Robejsek, Anna Robejsek, Jason Robejsek, and Connor, Carson, Carly, and Claire Duricky. Preceding Jack in death are his parents Mathew and Henrietta Robejsek and sister, Geraldine Antwright, formerly of Streetsboro and Virginia Beach. The family will receive friends from 3:00 -7:00 p.m. on Monday, February 3, 2025 at Brunner Sanden Deitrick Funeral Home & Cremation Center, 8466 Mentor Ave., Mentor, OH 44060. A funeral mass will be held at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, February 4, 2025 at St. John Vianney Church, 7575 Bellflower Rd., Mentor, OH 44060. Please meet at the church.
