Christopher M. Dziubek, age 32, of Clifton and formerly of Wayne, died on Sunday, January 3, 2016.

Chris was raised in Wayne and graduated from Wayne Hills High School with the Class of 2001. He loved music and played the clarinet in the Wayne Hills High School Marching Band all four of his high school years. During his senior year he was the Drum Major leading the band on the field. He loved sports and was on the Wayne Hills Varsity Fencing Team and Varsity Tennis team.

After high school he attended the University of Pennsylvania where he earned his B.S. degree studying biology and psychology. While at college he became a brother at the Phi Sigma Kappa Fraternity.

He enjoyed a great childhood going down the shore every summer to Wildwood Crest. He enjoyed an especially close relationship with his fraternal grandparents – Chester and Irene Dziubek who lived close by in Clifton. It seemed like Chris and his brother Kevin were over their house at least once a week or for the weekend. Grandma and Grandpa Dziubek would take the boys out for dinner or to church and on day trips to places like state parks. Chris was also fortunate to have a very close relationship with his maternal grandparents – Chester and Christine Wilczewski and had wonderful memories of summer times with them in the Poconos.

Chris saw a great deal in his younger years. His mother, Doris (Wilczewski) Dziubek passed unexpectedly in 2003 and in 2006 he stood close by his father’s side through his diagnosis and treatment of cancer, faithfully spending time with him in the hospital and taking him to his doctor appointments. Chris’ father, Lawrence Dziubek, passed away in 2010.

In his spare time Chris enjoyed reading. He continued to self-teach himself about biology and science in general. Also, in keeping with his love of music, he taught himself how to rock-out playing the bass guitar. He loved participating in activities that were intellectually stimulating – like playing poker. He had an uncanny sense of being able to predict the outcome of a game and what his odds of winning were, based on what cards his opponents would put down. He had a great, outgoing personality and a sarcastic sense of humor that will be dearly missed.

Chris is survived by his brother Kevin Dziubek and fiancé Ipek Akinci of Amsterdam, The Netherlands. He was predeceased by his mother Doris Dziubek (nee Wilczewski) in 2003 and his father Lawrence Dziubek in 2010.

In lieu of flowers, those planning an expression of sympathy in Christopher’s name are asked to consider Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary RC Church, or the Wayne Hills High School Band, c/o Wayne Hills High School, 272 Berdan Ave., Wayne, NJ 07470.
