Victor Malinowski Obituary
Born and raised in Shenandoah, Victor was the son of the late Victor S. and Stella Zegarski Malinowski.
He graduated high school in 1951 and began his federal employee career. He served at various government agencies for 35 years - the National Guard Bureau in Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia, as a Tobyhanna Army Depot supervisor, branch chief, member of AFGE, shop steward and negotiator for the original Labor Management Agreement Contract after a bill signed by President Kennedy in 1955.
He was a member of the Army National Guard for 32 years in Hq Co. DC NG and the Pennsylvania Army National Guard, including 5 years as first sergeant of company A, 2/109 Infantry division and three years as first sergeant in HQ and HQ CO 2/109 Infantry. He was promoted to sergeant major by the Pennsylvania National Guard in December of 1993.
Vic could always be seen in his yard and garden. His friends called him "Farmer Vic." He loved fishing and was a lifelong avid fan of the Philadelphia Phillies and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Most of all, Vic loved his family and their gatherings for holidays and throughout the year.
He will be missed and loved always by his wife, companion and caretaker, the former Johanna Stofko. Vic and Johanna celebrated their 62nd wedding anniversary in May.

Dear Mrs. Malinowski & family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts & prayers go out to you & your family. I never had the privilege of meeting Mr. Malinowski, however, our nurses always talked about what a nice man he was & what a great caregiver you were. When you are sad, just remember all of the wonderful years you spent together. He will be in your heart forever & will always be watching over you.
