It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Stanko Rezo, age 83, on September 26, 2025 with his loving family by his side. Stanko was born January 10th, 1942 in Rakitno, Hercegovina, Croatia and emigrated to Canada in 1965 to start a new life.

Stanko was predeceased by his parents Andelko and Ursula Rezo, siblings (Ivan, Slavko, Marko, Zdravko), in-laws (Ante and Mara Kovac), sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law (Koviljka, Ana, Stanko, Marin, Petar, Ljubica).

Stanko is survived by his wife Nedjeljka (Kovac), and his sons Tvrtko (Katica) and Angelko (Justyna). He is also survived by his many sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law (Kata, Tonka, Marija, Jelka, Ivan, Ivanka) and their families in Canada, Croatia, and Hercegovina.

Stanko was a proud member of the Croatian Canadian community and Holy Cross Parish. He was a founding member and former Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus “Father Sprajc” Council at Holy Cross Parish, a 4th degree member of the Knights of Columbus “Bishop Ryan” Council at St. Francis Parish, a member of Alhambra Hamilton, and a member of the “Cardinal Stepinac” Seniors Club.

A man of strong faith and a devout Catholic, Stanko spent many hours volunteering at Holy Cross Church, the Croatian Park in Smithville, and within the Croatian community at large.

Stanko was also involved in various political causes within Canada and his beloved homeland of Croatia. He was a longstanding member of the Croatian National Congress (HNV), serving as the treasurer for his local chapter for many years. He also volunteered for various municipal and provincial political campaigns.

Stanko had a great sense of humor, was a practical joker, and loved to tease his sons, nieces and nephews. He also treasured day trips with his wife to Niagara on the Lake, Sunday drives, games of chess, and family gatherings.
