My sisters Cathy and Julie, my brother Jack and I will never forget our Uncle Cas's kindness to our Mom especially while she was in the nursing home! She always looked forward to the packages that he would send to her filled with goodies which she always shared with us and the aides in the home! After my Mom passed I got closer to him and would text him several times during the year. He was such a wonderful, kind and generous Uncle and Brother! I'm sure that there was a big reunion in heaven with Jane, Irene, Grandmom and Grandpop Wanczyk, my dear nephew Wyatt and other family and friends. R.I.P. Uncle Cas until we see each other in heaven.

Beloved Kazimierz.

You passed away a few days after the death of my Mummy Jadwiga - Mikoaj's wife. You were a wonderful man for our family from Poland. In the hard years of communism you helped us materially, but also with good thought and affection.

I think that Aleksander - your father with his wife Julia, Mikoaj - his brother with his wife Jadwiga, You with your wife - Mary, and all the family already present there are together again and the story is endless.

I don't say goodbye, I say goodbye.

Bogdan Wanczyk - a cousin from Poland.

Dr Wanczyk was my doctor. I was 19 and scared because I was pregnant and didn't know what to do. I saw him and from the first moment I met him he became my angel. He was with me for two children and two miscarriages. I have missed him and now I know where he is and that he is with the other angels. Love you Dr.

Dr. Wanczyk delivered my daughter and my son, in 1976 and 1979. He was a gentle soul, a quiet man with a sense of humor; always kind and professional, very knowledgeable. He and Dr. Buckley were the best!! My condolences to his family.
