Michael Kudra Obituary

Michael S. Kudra died peacefully, Friday, June 25, 2021, at home, surrounded by his family.

He was predeceased by his father, Alex and mother, Theresa Kudra.

Left to cherish his memory is his loving wife, Barbara Patsko Kudra; daughter, Darcie Kudra; sister, Judy (Rick) Weinzen; sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews, aunts, an uncle and his special friend Bill.

Mike was retired from U.S. Steel Irvin Works. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, traveling, growing his prized Russian tomatoes and baking his delicious pies. Mike had a great sense of humor and he never ran out of interesting stories.

The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to a very special angel Kristen, who was Mike's liver donor last July.

Special thanks to AMEDISYS for their special care and support.

Relatives and friends will be received from 2 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, June 30, in the Terravecchia-Haky Home for Funerals, Inc., 515 N. Main Street, Masontown, PA 15461.

Mike growing up with you from first grade I knew I had a great friend.When you came and visited my parents and I visit your parents it was like family. Working with your dad in the coal mine was a joy. I will miss all the good times we shared growing up but will always have the memories.My deepest sympathies go out to Barb and Darcie which I know you loved too much. For myself and all the people you have behind too soon will see you in a future and make new memories.
