As reported by Gmina Bolesławiec:

With great sorrow, we received the news of the death of Józef Mrozik – the long-serving village head of Mierzwin.

As a community-minded person, friend and colleague, he was always ready to help, supporting others and becoming involved in numerous initiatives. His dedication and commitment to community matters were selfless, and the help and support he offered were always readily available. Józef will remain in our memory as a kind-hearted man devoted to his village and its residents. We will miss him greatly…

The municipality adds:

We extend our sincerest condolences to the family and loved ones. During these difficult moments, we share your grief.
