Joseph Cubanski Obituary

Preston – Joseph "Joe" Felix Cubanski, age 85, passed away in the early morning of Wednesday, March 5, 2025. Joe was born Nov. 4, 1939, in Norwich, son of the late Peter Cubanski and Jennie Cubanski of Preston.

Joe graduated from Norwich Free Academy in 1957. He was a carpenter by trade and a gifted one, retiring from the Carlin Construction Company as a foreman. Joe was a proud veteran, and served in the Connecticut Army National Guard from 1962 to 1968. He married the former Ceil Piechowski in St. Joseph's Church in Norwich in October 1964. They were married for 60 years and built a beautiful home and life together.

Joe is survived by his wife Ceil; their two sons, David (Nita) and Douglas (Maggie); and several grandchildren, all of whom he was very proud; his three brothers, Peter, Martin and Kenneth and their families; and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

Joe and Ceil were fortunate to have traveled extensively throughout the U.S.A. and Europe. Joe was a faithful and deeply involved member of St. Catherine's Church in Preston. He will be missed and lovingly remembered by all those whose lives he touched.

A Mass in Joe's memory will be held at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, March 13, at St. Catherine of Siena Church in Preston followed by an Interment ceremony at Poquetanuck Cemetery. The Gagne-Piechowski Funeral Home of Griswold has been entrusted with arrangements. For information and online condolences, please visit www.gagnefuneralhome.com.
