Obituary of Anthony Walter Woznicki
Anthony "Tony" Walter Woznicki, 64, passed away surrounded by family on Saturday, September 21, 2024, at his residence in the Woodside community in Aiken, SC.
Born on the 20th of January in 1960 in Meriden, Connecticut, and a lifelong resident of Wallingford, CT until moving to Aiken 2 years ago, Anthony was the son of the late Marie Zawadzki Woznicki. Anthony dedicated his life to serving others, particularly in his work as a police officer for the City of Meriden. After thirty years of loyal service, he retired in May of 2017.
A loving husband for over 35 years, Anthony wed his college sweetheart, Elizabeth Cromwell Woznicki, igniting a profound bond graced with joy, laughter, and an unwavering partnership. Their union produced three devoted children: Louanne Melanie Woznicki of Charlotte, North Carolina, Sara Elizabeth Woznicki of Richmond, Virginia, and William Anthony Woznicki of Bremerton, Washington. Tony took great pride in being a dedicated father and ensured they had great childhoods and strong foundations for their respective futures. Tony also leaves behind a legacy through his beloved siblings: Melanie Marie Woznicki of Aiken, South Carolina and Theodore Thomas (wife Nancy) Woznicki, Jr. of Torrington, Connecticut. He was also cherished by his many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, and grand-nephews.
Those who knew Tony knew him for his sense of humor and love of family. Tony could be found perfecting his golf swing, enjoying a pool, trying out new breweries, tending to his vegetable garden, and playing games with friends and loved ones. Tony combined his dry wit with a caring soul, ensuring his family laughed as often as they could and felt his love and support.
In homage to his battle with cancer, the family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Massey Cancer Center, 401 College St, Richmond, VA 23298 or www.masseycancercenter.org.
A Celebration of Life will be held at a time and date to be announced.
The Historic George Funeral Home & Cremation Center, 211 Park Ave SW, Aiken, SC 29801, (803-649-6234) has charge of arrangements.

Tony left us too soon and we will miss him dearly.

In the over 30 years I knew Tony to be a wonderful family man and friend. It was always enjoyable being with Tony especially during loud noise complaints involving salsa music as we danced to the beat to speak with the offender. I will miss him forever!

Elizabeth, Louanne, Sara, and Will
Steve and I are so heartbroken to hear about the loss of Tony. We will always remember him as such a big personality that adores his family. Enjoying soccer games, basketball, and track events alongside he and Elizabeth and his penchant for finding bargains at tag sales and then selling on eBay will always be something we fondly remember. Hugs and kisses to you all! Xoxo
