Lisa Dombrowski Obituary

Published by McCafferty Sweeney Slabinski Barnes Funerals and Cremations from Jun. 15 to Jun. 16, 2021.
Lisa Marie Dombrowski was born on May 11, 1961 to Michael and Elfriede Hnatkowsky in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Lisa has an older sister, Doris, and twin brother, Michael, who she spent her childhood playing with in the Olney section of the city. Lisa loved athletics and spent countless hours riding her bike, lifeguarding and playing sports with all of her friends. Lisa was a standout to many typically because she was the only female in the group, but that didn't stop her competitive nature. Lisa attended elementary school at St. Ambrose with her siblings and graduated high school at Cardinal Dougherty in 1979. She was involved in academics, student activities and athletics there as well. Lisa then went on to work at the United States postal service, where she met her lovely husband, Gary Dombrowski. Lisa put all of her efforts into maximizing her 30 plus years as a coworker there. She worked with many different people and held leadership positions because of her skill set and work ethic. Lisa and Gary Dombrowski got married on November 14, 1992. They then started their life together and became members of St. Albert the Great Church. Lisa and Gary loved spending time together, traveling and trying new places. Their favorite adventures were with family and friends, especially Eddie and Donna Runyen. In 1994 Lisa and Gary had their only daughter, Nicole. Lisa devoted her life to her daughter and did everything she could for her family's happiness. Lisa spent her days with her daughter at the park, at the beach and eventually taking her to every sporting event there was. Lisa loved the shore, she loved her faith in God, and she loved her family. Lisa was a true peace maker and enjoyed the simplicity of life. She spent her time giving and providing to all those around her. Lisa's favorite place was home, surrounded by those she loved. Lisa is also survived by her nephews and nieces; Dana, Bobby, Gina, Michael, Alexis and Kaitlyn. Relatives and friends are invited to her viewing on Sunday June 20th from 6-8 PM and Monday June 21st from 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM in Galzerano Funeral Home 9304 Old Bustleton Avenue Philadelphia, PA 19115. Lisa's funeral Mass will be held Monday 11 AM in St. Albert The Great Church and her interment will follow in Resurrection Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, contributions to Penn Cancer Center would be appreciated by Lisa's family.
