Tomasz Krzysztof Labuda, 39, a loving husband and devoted father, son, brother, uncle, and friend, entered eternal life on September 21, 2026.

Born in Tarnow, Poland, Tomasz came to the United States as a child. He grew up in Wallington before eventually making his home in Rockaway, where he built a beautiful life surrounded by his wife and children.

For 13 years, Tomasz worked as a Relationship Banker at M&T Bank in Paramus. He was hardworking, dependable, and always willing to help others. Yet, beyond his career, his greatest passion was working on cars. Whenever he had the opportunity, you could find Tomasz in the garage, happily working on a project and sharing his knowledge and skills with anyone who needed them.

Tomasz also loved spending time outdoors, especially riding in the woods with his family and friends. He treasured the simple moments with the people he loved most—even something as ordinary as taking a car ride with his family was special to him.

A man with a generous heart, Tomasz gave his time freely to help others. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus Lafayette Council #514 and served as a board member for 4Cs of Passaic County. He was the kind of person who could never say no when someone needed help. If there was something he could do for another person, he would.

Tomasz had an incredible sense of humor and loved making his children laugh with his famous “Dad jokes.” He was smart, funny, genuine, and kind. His warmth and personality touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

Above all else, Tomasz was devoted to his family. His greatest joy in life was his wife and children. To them, he was not only a husband and father, but their protector, their source of laughter, and their superhero. The love he had for his family was evident in everything he did, and the memories he created with them will remain in their hearts forever.

Tomasz was the beloved husband of 12 years to Michelle (Bednarz) Labuda and devoted father of Emilia, Dominik, and Klaudia Labuda.

He was the loving son of Stanislaw and Urszula Labuda; cherished brother of Krzysztof Labuda and his wife Magdalena, Diana Obolsky and her husband Alexander, and Jessica Klasko and her husband William. He was the dear son-in-law of Sophie and Roman Bednarz. He was a loving brother-in-law to Grace Bodyziak and her husband Maciej, Elizabeth Steinhauer and her husband Brian, Annette Garstka and her husband Adam, and Christopher Bednarz and his wife Samantha. Tomasz was also a beloved uncle to his many nieces and nephews: Karolina, Mariusz, Lucas, Matthew, Natalia, Karolina, Adriana, Aleksander, Antoni, Angelika, Adam, Gabriella, Camila, and Savannah.

Tomasz will be deeply missed by his family, friends, coworkers, and all who were fortunate enough to know him. His kindness, humor, generosity, and unwavering love for his family will never be forgotten.
