FRANKLIN - Age 95. Born into eternal life on July 2, 2024.
A life well-lived, a man well-loved, Norbert often professed, "I wouldn't change a thing." He passed away embraced by those who shared in his amazing journey of 95 years.
He will be welcomed "home" by Mary, his sweetheart of 65 years, but he will be dearly missed by his children – Dianne, Steve (Karen), Gail, John, Michael (Kathy), Jim (Diana), Denise (Fred) and Lauren (Joseph).
To family – his greatest joy – he imparted the values of sacrifice, generosity, hard work, loyalty and faith. His eight children, sixteen grandchildren and twenty-five great grandchildren will be forever guided by these principles, carrying on his legacy.
Norbert was preceded in death by his parents, Stanley Sr and Hedwig (nee Kosinski) Klosiewski, as well as his siblings – Carl, Robert, Evelyn, Alice, Lorraine, Stanley, Daniel and many beloved in-laws. He is survived by his sister Esther (Donald) and in-laws – Carol, Sharon, Pat, Thomas and Michael (Mary) along with many nephews and nieces.
Norbert was a family man who also touched the lives of neighbors, many friends and others. He will be fondly remembered by all who were lucky enough to have known him.
