Doris Kobrzycki, 96, passed away in Phoenix, Arizona, on November 11, 2025.
Doris was born in Appleton, Wisconsin, on June 27, 1929, to parents Thomas and Irene Bowe. She was raised, along with seven siblings, on a family farm in Stockbridge, Wisconsin.
She graduated in 1947 from Chilton High School and moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she was employed in the office of a certified public accountant.
She met her husband, Edward Kobrzycki, shortly after his discharge from the U.S. Army Air Corps, and they were married in 1950. In 1953 they relocated to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and resided there for five years before moving to Phoenix, Arizona.
Doris was an active volunteer in several community and religious organizations and was one of the founding members of Life Choices Women's Clinic in Phoenix.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Edward Kobrzycki, grandson Gregory Bauer, and son-in-law Alan Graettinger.
Doris is survived by her son Michael; daughters Patricia Bauer (Thomas), Catherine Milko (Gerald), Mary Graettinger; and grandson Steven Bauer.
