Casimir was an exceptionally talented and hardworking man who held a variety of roles during his career. He drove trucks for Tucker Freight Line, worked at Andy’s Custom Draperies, served with Meals on Wheels through the Berwyn Center, and spent time at Inkster Valley and Warren Valley Golf Courses. No matter the job, Casimir was known for his dedication, reliability, and pride in his work.

A man with a generous heart, Casimir was passionate about serving others and encouraging people to support charitable causes that made a meaningful difference. His commitment to helping those in need was a defining part of his character.

Casimir proudly served in the United States Army, stationed in Texas following the Korean War. He remained deeply connected to the veteran community as a member of the Carl E. Stitt Post 232 American Legion and the Polish Legion of American Veterans Post 16.

He enjoyed golfing and bowling, activities that brought him great joy, friendship, and countless memories over the years.

Casimir was the loving father of Monica (Jack) Strieter and the late Matthew. He was the cherished grandpa of Wade (Carrie Woloszyk) Strieter. He was also the dear uncle of Terri Kovala, Robert Grondziak, and many other nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his brothers, John, Joseph, and Chester, and his sisters Cecilia Podwiaski, Stella Grondziak, Anna Wegrzyn, and Frances Wegrzyn.
