John S. Piekalski

In Loving Memory

John S. "Jack" Piekalski 

June 5, 1946 - December 6, 2025

On an afternoon of December 6, 2025 at the age of 79, John S. "Jack" Piekalski's life was unexpectedly taken after a motorcycle accident in Boerne, Texas. He was on an event ride with his motorcycle family of brothers for a toy run to support charities for children in the community to make Christmas brighter for local families. Jack was quickly taken into his Heavenly Father's kingdom and lifted from all pain and illness. 

He was predeceased by his mother and father, Stanley M. Piekalski, Vita R. Piekalski, son John S. Piekalski Jr. and wife, Betty Piekalski. 

He is survived by his sister, Debra Ann Gongre, his nephew Christopher J. Davenport, his niece, Kelley M. Davenport and his great niece Addie M. Davenport. 

He was born June 5, 1946 in Staten Island, New York to Stanley M. and Vita R. Piekalski. After graduating High School in Germany, he immediately enlisted into the United States Air Force, where he became Vietnam Veteran. 

He had a loving heart and was always optimistic even when life would not go as planned at times. He will be missed by his surviving family and the Caliente Hog Chapter family he rode with. 

We will be comforted by the scripture of Matthew 5:8 "Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God"

A Memorial Service will be held for John at 11:30 AM on January 16, 2026 at Schertz Funeral Home, followed by a Graveside Service at 1:45 PM at Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery.
