Sophie Pawlowski (nee Lasko) age 78 of Wayne died Saturday, March 17, 2012, peacefully with the comfort of her family by her side.
She was born and raised on a farm in Lopon-Podlesie, Poland and came to the United States in 1963 settling in Garfield New Jersey. She lived with her uncle and worked at the Presto Lock Company in Garfield and at her uncle’s tavern Krolls Tavern in Garfield.
In 1964 her husband Stefan Molczyk and two sons John and Victor joined her in Garfield. In 1969 her husband Stefan passed away.
After several years she met Eugene Pawlowski through friends in the neighborhood. The neighborhood friends often traveled together going to places such as Roosevelt Raceway in Long Island, day trips to the NJ Shore, trips to Radio City Music Hall in New York City, and the theatre in Montclair. They soon fell in love and married on July 8, 1972 at St. Stanislaus Kostka Church in Garfield. They have enjoyed forty years of a loving, devoted, and faith filled marriage.
Sophie worked part-time with Eugene at his business, Steigner’s Pharmacy in Paterson and in 1985 took a full time position at the Nabisco Brands Corporation in Fair Lawn as a packer. She formally retired in 2000.
Sophie will be remembered as a generous, sociable, and thoughtful person who enjoyed time with her family and friends.
She was a devoted and active parishioner of Our Lady of Consolation RC Church in Wayne.
Sophie was the loving wife of Eugene Pawlowski; devoted wife of the late Stefan Molczyk(1969); cherished mother of John Molczyk and his wife Loret of Wayne, Victor Molczyk and his wife Karin of Ellicott City, MD, and Christine Mascia and her husband Paul of Eldersburg, MD; dear grandmother of David, Daniel, Stephen, Brian, and Kevin Molczyk, and Thomas, Jacob, and Victoria Mascia; loved sister of Barbara Szczesny of Poland, and the late Jozefa Wozniak, Ignacy and Stanley Lasko.
