The Board, Audit Committee, Advisory Council and Membership of the Polish Canadian Chamber of Commerce (PCCC) announce in deep sadness, with sincere sympathies to his family, the recent passing of our dear and trusted friend and colleague, Dr. Stan Borkowski.
Having quietly and bravely fought a recurring illness for many years, Stan invariably showed his strong side, and was always there for us, in both good times and bad. He was one of those special human beings of great knowledge and authority whom many of us turned to when we had a burning question or complex issue to discuss; and Stan would always take the time to help us and work things through with patience and respect.
Stan was an active member not only of our Canadian community and the long-time head of our Audit Committee at the PCCC, but held leading and influential positions at numerous large corporations, banks and insurance companies both on the management and supervisory boards, well-respected and revered in many professional and charity circles in both Poland and beyond. At the same time, he was a caring husband, father, friend and all-round family man.
Our personal and professional friendships with Stan – together with our circle of friends and family – have lasted over the years, having become part of the foundation of our international community here in Warsaw.
Now, with Stan having departed this world, we would like to take a moment to reflect on the blessing of his having been amongst us, and together wish him eternal rest and peace.
