I had the tremendous honor of working with Jerry over a period of more than 20 years. He was kind, thoughtful, and exceptionally competent - providing insightful and practical perspectives that were key to the achievement of ECSE’s initiatives. I am critically aware of how terribly understated and modest he was, yet how incredibly significantly his efforts contributed to the success of the department, the institute, and – most of all – the education and preparation of a vast number of engineering students throughout the years.
Jerry enabled both the success of the faculty and the potential for students to develop the knowledge, skills and abilities to have successful careers. He would often work with me long past quitting time to test new experiments’ functionality and ensure that the equipment was all functioning properly. Unfortunately, too few students knew of his work, which made certain that things ran smoothly from behind the scenes. It is accurate to say that without Jerry’s contributions to the Mobile Studio project, it wouldn’t have gotten off the drawing board.
Jerry’s passing is certainly a colossal hurt for RPI and its operations. But the world is also suffering the loss of a wonderful individual who attached actions to words and positively impacted many human lives. It is my hope that his energy and spirit lives on through the thousands of engineers that he helped develop.

I used to be a TA for the electrical lab for 3 years (1991-1994) and Jerry was the lab manager. He brought a lot of enthusiasm and we would compete for the highest score in Tetris! We kept in touch over the years and his passing away was a complete shock to me. May his soul rest in peace

To the Family & Friends of Jerry Dziuba;
I first met Jerry some 45 years ago as an undergraduate in Prof Norvik's Electrical Lab in
Sage Bldg and kept in touch with him over these decades.
Jerry was a "good man" by every measure and meaning of those words. He was always willing to
help and was forever cheerful and positive. His sudden passing is another of life's tragedies but his
memories will not fade for all of my remaining years.
And to Jacqueline & Christopher - for the past few years I've had lunch with Jerry on a near-weekly
basis and will attest to his never-ending devotion & love for you both. You have every reason to be
eternally proud of your father.
May God hold and protect the Soul of Jerry Dziuba for all Eternity.

When I think about Jerry, the first word that comes to my mind is "kind". He helped me a lot during my time at RPI when/where I needed help setting up equipment. He will be missed.
RIP kind Jerry ...

I met Jerry when I started working at RPI in 1975. Even though I retired in 2013 after 38 yrs., Jerry and I kept in close touch. We both started in the ECSE dept. and I would often welcome Jerry's help and advice especially with his knowledge of video systems. Although I moved to other departments through the years, Jerry and I stayed close and often got together for lunch or after work get togethers. He was the best man in my wedding in 1992. It is with tremendous sadness and sense of loss that I'm writing this. Jerry will be missed by everyone who knew him. My sincere condolences go to Zenny, Stephanie, Olga, Christopher, and Jackie. Jerry may be gone, but he will never be forgotten. He lives on in the hearts of everyone he touched.

Jerry was a wonderful colleague and invaluable asset to ECSE and RPI. There was an outpouring of sorrow and remembrance since Jerry's passing. We have a departmental tribute page to remember Jerry https://ecse.rpi.edu/news/ecse-mourns-passing-long-time-ecse-staff-member-jerry-dziuba. We have named the annual ECSE graduate student service award as the Jerry Dziuba ECSE Graduate Student Service Award. It is befitting -- Jerry is the personification of service. Thank you Jerry for your 47 years of dedication and exemplary service to students, faculty, department, and the Institute. You have been a pillar of the department. We will miss you.

My condolences to Jerry's family. Jerry and I attended the same parish in Troy (Protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary), the same grade school (School 12) and the same high school (Troy High). Although I haven't seen Jerry since our high school graduation in 1971, I've never forgotten our times together in our younger days. He surely will be missed. Rest in Peace my friend.

Jerry was immensely generous and kind to me and my undergrad/graduate students.
I met him in 2006 when I was a graduate student at RPI and received me with open arms when I came back as faculty in 2017.
I would have not survived through RPI as a grad. student or faculty without him.
He understood how hard it is to run an experimental lab and was terribly sympathetic to all the difficulties we faced, making his best to make my life and my students life easier.
He was always involved in one way or another in my experimental research and contributed in such way that he is among the co-authors of several papers we wrote with the undergraduate research project students that he will always supported with immense patience.
I often tell my students that papers are more a memory of work we do together, I am grateful I have these memories with Jerry:

This summer he was working a lot with me setting up a new lab, he loved to help with new projects and was instrumental on getting things done well. Little could I imagine what was he was going through. Although he was camera shy, I managed to get him to let me take a picture of him. I am so glad I have that memory of him doing what he loved and smiling!
Almost every day he stopped by my office often to ask me how things were going and sometimes we drank coffee together, even through the COVID period, he looked after me. That is what I will miss the most, the regular conversations and working together, having someone that cares for you so altruistically is one in a million.
For everything he did for me with care and generosity, I considered him more than a colleague, he was my friend.

My condolences to Jerry's family. Jerry was a great person and a great colleague at the department. He was the rock that got us through not only the day-to-day operation of the department but also calamities big and small, for longer than I have lived. More recently, he was the constant face that I see at work while we are managing our way through the pandemic -- always friendly and helpful. He is sorely missed. Rest in Peace, Jerry.

My condolences to the Dziuba family (especially Zenny and Jerry's children). My ex-husband Mike Russell and I were friends with Jerry and the Van Rensselaer Manor gang in our younger years. He was my son Jason Russell's Godfather. May he Rest in Peace. God Bless the Dziuba family.

Jerry was the most important person for me at work. He came to work everyday at 7AM and made sure every room/lab/equipment he touched was in good shape and ready for students to use. I have never seen him sad or bored. He was always active, cheerful and excited. When he is around, I trust that everything is fine. If things go wrong, I start looking for him, knowing that he is the only one who could help me. I will miss him dearly. May you rest in peace Jerry. People like you Jerry are an example of what God expected from all humans; to help make the place/ the object that you touch better for your fellow humans.

I meet Jerry around 2000, My daughter best friend is his daughter Jackie. I said I adopted Jackie as my daughter since I meet her. Jerry all was polite and a gentleman when I go to his house to pick up Jackie. Chris & Jackie became my other kids. Every time I saw Jerry he was greatful how I treat her daughter. We had fun at my daughter’s wedding. Rest In Peace. I will continue taking care of your girl. With love,
Elsie
