Genevieve Wojcik Obituary
Nina was born in Passaic, NJ on September 3, 1959, to Ludwick and Josephine Dziepak Wyskiel. Her family moved to Bristol, CT early in her life where she had many friends and family members nearby. Nina graduated from St. Paul Catholic High School, and attended Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute where she proudly graduated in 1981 with her Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics.
Nina loved being a mother, often singing "You Are My Sunshine" to her daughter. She worked as a teacher for many years at St. Joseph Central High School, where she taught physics and math. She also previously worked at Berkshire Life. Nina treasured spending time with her loved ones and had a bright personality that could light up any room.
She leaves behind her cherished daughter, Kathryn Wojcik of Hartford, CT; her dog, Henry; her grand-dog, Buttons, and many beloved cousins, friends, and neighbors. Nina truly left an impact on so many, and will be greatly missed.
FUNERAL NOTICE: There will be a private celebration of life with her family and friends. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in her name to the Danbury Animal Welfare Society in Danbury, CT.

Nina was my first love at RPI and I will always cherish our special time together and all the wonderful memories. I am sorry to learn of her passing after many years since but I hope you find peace and will see you soon as we all will someday soon. Love Tom

My deepest sympathies. May the God of all comfort strengthen the entire family during this time of sorrow. Always remember that God keeps in his memory those whom we lose because they are precious in his eyes. (Psalms 116:15)

I felt a special bond with Nina being a distant cousin on her Mother's side. My Dziadziu and Babi in Manchester NH, our Mom's and Chocia's kept a close family relationship for many years. I have so many fond memories of time spent with that entire family. Years passed and we lost touch. Once social media became popular both of us were thrilled to reconnect. I always wanted to meet Nina again but life got in the way and now I regret that we never did meet again in person. I already feel the void where Nina had lightened my day with fun pictures and posts of yummy recipes ( mostly lemon) . Holiday greetings etc. RIP dear Nina. So sorry you left us so soon. Smile down upon us in Heaven.
