Slezak, Ilona
Ilona Slezak (nee: Szabo), passed peacefully on August 2, 2025 at Kristus Darzs Latvian Home Woodbridge at 87 years of age. Beloved wife of the late Karoly Slezak and lovingly remembered by her children Barbara Slezak, Ildiko “Ildi” Makrai (nee Slezak) (the late Alex), and Tamas “Tom” Slezak (Rita).

Ilona was a woman of deep kindness and boundless compassion, whose love for her family and those dear to her knew no limits. Not a single person could enter her home without leaving with a full stomach, she was always prepared to feed an army with her home cooking and fresh pastries. The outdoors brought her serenity; nature was her refuge, where she found peace and joy. Above all, Ilona cherished time spent with her loved ones, creating memories that continue to shine brightly in the hearts of those who knew her. These precious moments are now treasured stories carried forward by everyone who had the privilege to share in her life.
