Born on October 18, 1920 in Derby, she was the daughter of the late Anthony and Victoria Lizon Jacek. She was devoted to her family and spending time with them meant the world to her.

An active room mother for St. Ann's school, she was also a dedicated volunteer for the St. Ann's Ladies Guild and the women's auxiliary of the Milford Police Dept. She also was active in the Milford Council of Catholic. Loving and caring wife, mother and sister, Wanda will be deeply missed.
In addition to her husband Marshall of 61 years, she is survived by her cherished daughter Marsha V. Kochiss of Milford and her brother Edwin Jacek of Seymour. She was predeceased by her son Mark J. Kochiss, and two brothers, Henry and Edmund Jacek.

Uncle Marsh, Marsha,
Aunt Wanda will be missed. She was a caring, kind, and lovely woman. Her banana bread was the best. Our prayers go out to you for your loss of your longtime partner and friend.
