Brian Zielinski Obituary
Born Oct. 7, 1960 in Painesville, Brian had lived in Mentor for many years.
Brian spent his career as a truck driver, a job he took pride in before illness forced him to step away. Outside of work, Brian was passionate about collecting and shooting guns and found joy in attending car shows and admiring classic vehicles.
He was the step-father of Donald Gladding, Joseph Gladding, Martin Gladding, Susan (nee Gladding) Bonewitz, Tonya (nee Gladding) Wiley and Donn Gladding.
Brian was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Gayle Ann (nee Klug) Zielinski; parents, Henry and Mary (nee Niska) Zielinski; siblings, Bonnie Zedonis and Patricia Toler; and step-children, Robert Gladding and Lynn (nee Gladding) Spicer.
Services will be private.
Arrangements are entrusted to McMahon-Coyne-Vitantonio Funeral Homes in Willoughby and Mentor.
