Walter Scibek Obituary
Walter J. "Butch" Scibek Jr., 65, of Luzerne, passed away suddenly Sunday, July 10, 2022, in Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Plains Twp.
He was born in Wilkes-Barre, the son of the late Walter and Elizabeth Karpinski Scibek, and attended West Side Technical High School. He proudly served his country in the U.S. Army.
He returned home, worked with Broody Tires and later retired from Prestige Delivery Systems, Wilkes-Barre.
He enjoyed his Grateful Dead music, riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle and playing the slots at the casino. He was a simple family man who was happy spending time with his family relaxing at home in his pool.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a son, Walter Scibek III; and a sister, Blanche Scibek.
He will be sadly missed by his wife of more than 45 years, Michele; sons, Michael, Joseph and Brian; 10 grandchildren, including Joelle and Jaelynn; sisters, Teresa Scibek and Joan Scibek; and numerous nieces, nephews, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.

My Deepest Sympathy to Teresa Scibek and her sister Joan and all their family on the loss of their brother Walter. Teresa and Joan worked with me at Social Security. I knew Teresa since around 1972.
I will remember Walter in my prayers.
Again, so sorry for your loss.
