It is with profound sadness that the family of Julian (Julek) Józef Krezel announces his passing on May 28, 2021 at the age of 72.  

 

Julian is survived by his devoted wife of 35 years, Grace (Grazyna), and his children Filip Krezel, Margaret Mariani, and Julia Krezel- McDonnell. Julian will be greatly missed by his five grandchildren, Krystian, Christopher, Alina, Michael, and John, his daughter-in-law Deana Krezel, and his two sons-in-law Michael Keith Mariani and Ryan McDonnell, as well as many loved relatives and friends.

 

On January 6, 1949, Julian, son of Kazimierz Krezel and Helena (Kochanski) Krezel, was born in the Polish countryside of Besko, Poland. Julian was a loyal employee of Johnson Matthey where he was celebrated for 25 years of committed service. From coworkers to family and friends, Julian was a beloved man who had the unique ability to make anyone laugh and smile. When with Julian, the mood was uplifted and joyful. Young at heart, Julian lived life to the fullest. As a talented creative with many hobbies, he enjoyed tending to the flowers and vegetables in his garden, painting impressionist art, woodworking and crafting jewelry. The world is a more beautiful place because Julian was a part of it.
