Stanley Kazdoy Obituary

KAZDOY, Stanley Stanley Kazdoy, 96, of Plano, passed away peacefully on Saturday, August 12, 2017 at his residence. He will always be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend to all that knew and loved him. A native of San Antonio, he joined the U. S. Army after high school, and was part of the invasion force of the North African campaign of World War II in November, 1942, where he was severely wounded by machine gun fire. As a tribute to his honorable service, he received, among many other decorations, the Bronze Star and the Purple Heart. He continued his service to our country in civilian life, as an accountant with the U. S. Veterans' Administration. As proud as he was of his military service, he was most proud of his seventy-two year marriage to his beloved wife, Bernice, who pre-deceased him in 2016. Theirs was a marriage made in New York, where they met prior to Stanley being sent overseas. He will be remembered as a dedicated Jew, and a strong supporter of Jewish causes and the State of Israel. And, to his family, he will be remembered for his kindness, his steadfast devotion, his sense of humor, and his unwavering loyalty. He is survived by his son Alan, and daughter-in-law Mackie, son Douglas, and daughter-in-law Nori. He also leaves to cherish his memory, grandchildren Amanda, Matthew, Reuven, Nava and Dan, and great-grandchildren Daniel, Vivienne, Eleanor and Beatrix. A Funeral Service will be at 2:00 pm on Wednesday, August 16, 2017 at Sparkman/Hillcrest Northwest Chapel, 7405 W. Northwest Hwy., Dallas, TX 75225. Burial will follow in Hillcrest Memorial Park Cemetery. In lieu of flowers contributions may be made in Stanley's memory, to the charity of choice.
