Stanislaw “Stan” Sapinski age 63 of Wayne passed suddenly Sunday, December 20, 2015.

He was born to Maria and the late Henryk (1999) Sapinski and raised in Gostynin, Poland where he worked as an electrician. In 1979 Stan came to the United States to visit and re-united with a longtime family friend from Poland, George Rogacki. Janina lived around the corner from Stan in Poland and had immigrated to the United States in 1966. When they met again in 1979 they quickly fell in love. Their first date was to the Two Guys store in Lodi. Janina said she was going shopping and Stan said “I’ll join you.” The rest is history. Stan proposed at Janina’s mother’s home in Prospect Park and they married on July 18, 1979. They have enjoyed thirty-six years of a loving marriage best characterized as always being there for each other.

Stan worked as a landscaper for many years. He first worked for his wife’s uncle Anthony Rogacki, then with his father-in-law for a while before starting his own landscaping company in 1980. He has had his own landscaping company called Stan Sapinski Landscaping in Wayne for the past thirty-five years.

One of Stan’s hobbies was buying and selling cars at the auto auction in Pennsylvania. He also enjoyed trips to Lauderdale Lakes in Florida. Many will remember Stan for his sense of humor, he was a funny guy and always joking around, his neat and organized way, and being a Mr. Fix It.

He was the loving husband of Janina Sapinski; cherished father of Diana Scanlon and her husband Bryan of Bloomingdale; devoted son of Maria Sapinski of Poland and the late Henryk Sapinski (1999); dear brother of the late Jan Sapinski (2004) and the late Anna Sosnowski (Nov. 2014).
