It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Rick Carl Boszak, who left us peacefully on Friday, December 5th, 2025, surrounded by the love of his family.
Born on January 22nd, 1963 in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Rick spent his life rooted in the community he would always call home. He dedicated 38 years to CP Rail where his strong work ethic, steady reliability, and pride in his craft earned him the respect of many. Rick enjoyed music, cheering on his Toronto Maple Leafs, spending time in his backyard, and the occasional golf and fishing.
He was predeceased by his parents, Olga and Carl Boszak. Rick is survived by his wife, Sherryn; daughters, Brianne (Brock) and Brooke (Spencer); and his five grandchildren he was so proud of: Maddox, Leo, Rooney, Van, and Sonny. Rick will also be deeply missed by his sisters: Susan (Rick), Sharron (Tom), and Carla (Shawn); along with numerous nieces and nephews.
A private service to celebrate Rick’s life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in Rick’s memory may be made to the Moose Jaw Health Foundation, 55 Diefenbaker Drive, Moose Jaw, SK S6J 0C2. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. Andrew Pratt, Funeral Director 306-693-4550
