Edward Kowalski, a lifelong resident of Wallington, New Jersey, has entered eternal life on April 30, 2024 at the age of 68. Ed was born on September 19, 1955, in Passaic, New Jersey, to Marian and Valerie (Wrazen) Kowalski. He was a kind, generous, and loving man with a sparkling sense of humor, and was always ready and willing to lend help to anyone who needed it, included but not at all limited to his beautiful family.
Ed attended Don Bosco Prep School in Ramsey, and received his associate's degree in Electronic Engineering from the Rets Institute trade school in Nutley. He was employed by Bell & Howell as a mechanic and technician. Ed also spent 3 years as a coach for Kaminski's baseball team. He was an avid fisherman, and loved spending time in Asbury Park, Wildwood, and Lancaster.
Edward is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Susan Kowalski, his cherished children, Eric Kowalski and his wife Dana, and Jessica Crilly and her husband Christopher. He is also survived by his adoring grandchildren, Thomas, Fiona, Alex, and Jackson, his dear sister Christine Kowalski, his loving mother Valerie Kowalski, and his beloved in-laws, John & Sharon (Finch) Skripak, John & Diane Finch, Donna Finch, Patricia (Finch) Platt, Pamela (Finch) & Vera Kovalski. Ed left this life peacefully surrounded by his devoted family. His amazing "nursing" team didn't leave his side until he gently crossed over to meet his buddies.
Visitation will be held 3-7 PM, Friday, May 3rd, 2024 at Warner-Wozniak Funeral Service, 80 Midland Avenue, Wallington, NJ, 07057. A Funeral Mass will be conducted 10 AM, Saturday, May 4th, 2024, at The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus Church, 127 Paterson Avenue, Wallington, NJ, 07057.
