    • OLINSKI, John Philip - It is with great sadness that we, the Olinski family, announce that John has completed the journey of life, in his 73rd year, and has commenced his spiritual journey to be with the Holy Father. He leaves his wife, Jean (nee Feil) for 52 years, to complete her journey of life. She was his much loved life companion and caregiver. He was very proud of his sons, Christopher and his wife Dianne of Elora and their son's Jason and Tim, and Philip and his wife Linda of Waterloo and their children Megan and Shawn. John was employed by the City of Kitchener in the Fire Service for over 33 years and attained the rank of Captain. John enjoyed being actively involved in the officiating fraternity having refereed hockey, football and lacrosse for over 25 years. His accomplishments included refereeing all national championships in lacrosse, university football and southwest Jr. A. Hockey League. Dear brother to Frances Karges, Agnes Tettambel, and Jim (Doreen). Brother-in-law to Patricia Olinski and Donald Feil. Predeceased by his parents, Philip and Ann (nee Foran) Olinski; his brother, Jerry and his sister, Pauline. John's family will receive relatives and friends from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. today (Tuesday) at the Henry Walser Funeral Home , 507 Frederick St., Kitchener, 519-749-8467.
