Joseph Kaminsky Obituary

Joseph W. Kaminsky Jr., passed away on Oct. 19, 2020.

He was born Feb. 23, 1931, in Vernon, resided in Manchester for most of his life before moving to Coventry in 1970. He served in the U.S. Marine Corp. from 1948 to 1952, serving from 1951 to 1952 in The Korean Conflict with an honorable discharge.

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free. I'm following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard his call. I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day. To laugh, to love, to work, to play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I've found that peace at the end of the day.

If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss. Ah yes, these things too, I will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full. I savored much. Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief. Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, he set me free.

There will be no calling hours. Good luck.
