John Czerwinski Obituary

John Czerwinski

John Czerwinski, 85, of Wauconda, IL. Born August 25, 1939, in Pyzowka, Poland, passed away August 9, 2025.

Beloved husband of Sophie, nee Habas. Loving father of Luci (David) Roberts and Grace Siddiqui. Proud grandfather of Drake, Dane, Imaan and Aalia.

John lived a life marked by hard work and resilience. He married Sophie in 1964 and together they built their American dream filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories. We find comfort in knowing that John is now at peace, reunited with loved ones and friends who passed before him, and watching over us with love.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in John's name to National Council on Aging www.ncoa.org.

Visitation Wednesday, August 13, 2025, from 9 AM until time of Funeral Service at 11 AM at Smith-Corcoran Funeral Home, 185 E. Northwest Hwy., Palatine. Interment St. Michael the Archangel Cemetery.
