John Zuroski, 94, of Omaha, NE passed away on March 1, 2025. Born on July 9, 1930, in Lindsey, NE. John lived a full and remarkable life. He dedicated many years to owning and running his own successful concrete business, where he was known for his hard work and commitment to quality. John was married to his beloved wife, Shirley, for 73 years. Together they built a loving relationship that withstood the test of time. Their connection deepened through shared laughter, standing together through all of life’s up and downs, that formed a commitment to their beautiful family that was like no other. Together, they created a lifetime of beautiful moments. A man of many passions, John found joy in the thrill of horseracing, blackjack, and the excitement of Las Vegas, where he often spent time with family and friends. He also loved working outside, tending to his yard, and was a loyal supporter of the Nebraska football team, often donning his favorite Nebraska coveralls, and always drinking HOT black coffee. His family will always remember his smile and laughter, his sense of humor and the joy he found in life’s simple pleasures.
