Joseph Cyrowski Obituary

Cyrowski, Joseph C.

LA CROSSE - Joseph Clifford Cyrowski, 64, passed away peacefully on Saturday, Dec. 18, 2021. He lived his life exemplifying the traits of a true gentleman. He has touched so many in his 64 years. Joe was the epitome of integrity, honesty, and doing the right thing. He dedicated his life to helping people. He spent innumerable hours listening to anyone that needed an ear, showing by example, and giving anything and everything he had to make someone's life better. Joe always wanted to help people grow and give them an opportunity they might not have otherwise been allowed. He made so many great friends over the years, and his family wants to thank each and every one for making a difference in his life.

His life was Family, Friends, and ServiceMaster, and he gave his heart unconditionally and selflessly to all three. He has left an enormous hole in our hearts but we will strive to be exactly what Joe was to continue his legacy. It is the only way to properly honor him.

Joe is survived by two daughters, Beth (Caitlin) and Katie (Toni); a daughter-in-law, Abby; two brothers, John (Rovanna) and Jim (Lorene); his granddaughters, Kaylie Peterson and Veda Daffinson; and his soulmate, Cheryl Holt.

A memorial gathering will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 22, from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m., followed by a time for sharing, at the SCHUMACHER-KISH FUNERAL & CREMATION SERVICES of La Crosse. Memorials may be given to Chileda. An online guestbook is available at www.schumacher-kish.com.

This may be a bit late, but I just recently found out about Joe's passing from a friend.

I had the pleasure to know and work with Joe in Windsor (Canada) many years ago. We were not close friends, but I looked up to Joe and respected him. He was a fun loving guy and it saddens me to think he's no longer with us.

My deepest condolences to his wife and family.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. I recently heard about Joe's passing. I was a friend of Joe's back when we both worked at McDonald's on Hurnline in Windsor.
For the longest time I tried to locate Joe so that we could talk about or life's journey.
I remember Joe as an extraordinary person that never had a bad word to say about anyone not to mention is laughter.
He will be missed and I will always cherish his friendship.

To all the Cyrowski Family. I am sorry to hear of Joe's passing. We grew up with him at the beach. Always went with my grandparents Bill & Ann Laesser when they went to visit Joe's parents. May you all find comfort in his memories. Rest In Peace Joe. Linda Jones (Laesser)

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. I worked for Joe in his Cedar Rapids, IA business. Joe had a kind heart, known for his honesty and always helping people to achieve their potential.

I am so very sorry to find out about the passing of Joe. I believe he is a customer of ours and we did work at his home a few days prior to his passing. I have been urgently trying to reach him. If someone in the family could reach out to me it would be much appreciated! Mary Lawrence, Badger Basement Systems. 920-563-6136 Again, my condolences.

Whenever I had a question that only a ServiceMaster "Elder" might know the answer to...Joe always came to mind. He was someone we could reach out to whenever it was needed. Joe was a good man with a kind heart and will truly be missed. Thinking of you all.
