Julian Kuzminski, of Muskego, WI, passed away with family by his side on February 19, 2026. He was born on June 15, 1951 to Michael and Antonia Kuzminski. Joe is survived by his wife of 50 years, Darelyn (nee Brakovich) Kuzminki; his daughter Andrea; granddaughters Analysia (Daniel) and Mikayla (Isaac); and his great-grandchildren Jayce Julian, Aubriella, Micah, and Katalina. Further survived by his sister Chrystine (Robert) and sister-in-law Ava. Joe was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Walter, and his twin brother and partner-in-crime Victor. He will be lovingly remembered by other family and friends.

Joe was a proud veteran of the Vietman war, serving in the Marine Corps. Though he had a tough exterior, he was the softest teddy bear deep down- especially when it came to his family. He was the rock, and loved his great-grandkids to no end. “Papa” will be remembered for his wit and sense of humor, always the jokester. He will be dearly missed.

A service for Joe will be held at Arlington Park Cemetery (4141 S 27th St, Greenfield, WI 53221) on Friday, March 6, 2026. All are welcome to visit from 10 AM to 11:00 AM, with a prayer service and military honors at 11 AM. Committal will be at 12 noon.
