Adeline J. Adamczyk

Adeline J. Adamczyk (née Mozdzierz), age 85, of Niles, Illinois, passed away peacefully on October 9, 2025.

She was born on July 18, 1940, in Chicago, Illinois to William and Angelina Mozdzierz.

She was the beloved wife of the late Donald E. Adamczyk, the loving mother of Jeffrey (Lisa) Adamczyk and Shari (late Larry) Monfeli, a proud and devoted grandmother (Busia) to Rebecca (Ryan) Auker, Nicholas (Arika) Monfeli, Raechel (Nathan) Lawwill, Daniel Monfeli (Marissa Santiago), Joseph Monfeli, Hailee Monfeli, and Donald Adamczyk, and a deeply cherished great-grandmother of Abigail, Kenneth, Lindsey, Scarlett, and Calix.

Our mother was a strong woman who faced every challenge in her life with courage and dignity. She was strong-willed and a true force of nature. She instilled in us the importance of family, hard work, and keeping traditions alive, especially during the holidays. She found joy in life’s simple pleasures: puzzles, old television movies, coloring, long conversations with friends, and her love of gambling. More than anything, she loved her grandchildren and treasured the chance to watch them grow. Time with family brought her the greatest happiness of all.

Her presence, laughter, and love will be deeply missed by her family.

Her journey was long and full of quiet strength. Through every climb, she held on with faith and love. Now her spirit rests, she has found her peace, and her song continues in those she loved.— Jeremiah 31:25; Philippians 2:14–15
