Created May 11th, 2022

Officer John "G-13" Grzywaczewski unexpectedly passed away on May 09, 2022.  John, also lovingly known as "Cap" and "Gryz" to his family, friends and co-workers, was an 18 yr veteran Police Officer.  He spent his first 2yrs with the New York State Police.  His next 16 yrs, until his sudden passing, was with the Village of Chester Police department, his extended family.  Anywhere you went, someone knew the Cap.  


Gryz loved being outside, whether it was tinkering in his garage, watching NASCAR outside having some twist-teas or latte's, "chillin" with all his friends, stacking wood, going ATV riding.  He loved his vinyl and would spend hours listening to his records or fixing up stereos and speakers that he would randomly find on the side of the street.


Grzy had a love of animals that was shared by the love of his life, his wife Amanda.  This was evident by the mini "farm" some would say he has at the house between the chickens, goats, cat and beloved dogs that he had.


The purpose of this fundraiser set up by the Village of Chester PBA is to ease the financial burden for his wonderful wife Amanda.  Gryz would give the shirt off his back to help anyone with anything they needed.  Lets return the favor and show Amanda exactly how much the "Cap" meant to every single person that had the pleasure to know or interact with him by making a donation to this fund.  ALL proceeds will go to John's wife, Amanda.

Our condolences to the family. Garry and I had John on our school bus. He was a pleasure to have on the bus. He was always smiling and well behaved. Over the years John came to our farm to get hay, was glad to see him and chat for a while at times. He will be greatly missed.

My dear best friend & third brother, I still cannot believe you are gone. I miss you already. We shared so many good and special moments together over the years. You have been a great friend and have always been there for me, especially when I needed a friend the most and I was facing one of most difficult times in my life. I will never forget that - it meant the world to me! You had a positive way of looking at things and could always make me laugh. You are irreplaceable to me and will miss you always.
