Hyska, Thomas “Bart” age 72 of NE Mpls. passed away peacefully on January 9, 2025. He was a 30-year employee with the City of Minneapolis and spent much of that time supervising Street crews in NE. He was an avid outdoorsman, with an emphasis on fishing, and went up north whenever he could. In town, he was a familiar face at Jimmy’s and the Knight Cap where he loved conversing, sharing jokes, and playing cribbage with friends. His love for his dogs was second to none, they were truly his best friends. He had a gruff exterior, but the heart of a teddy bear, and will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Preceded in death by parents Paul and LaVerne; brothers Bobby and Jerry; brother-in-law Bob Moe; nieces and nephews Chris, Rae Ann, Samantha, Anthony, and Ron Jr. Survived by sisters Darlene Parker, Kathy Moe, Bonnie Benson, MaryAnn (Tom) Starks, Lori (Tim) Rush, Theresa, Connie Korman (Tom); brothers Ron (Joann), Steve, Mike (Sue); and a multitude of loving nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
