Marion J. Guzowski, 74, of Avon, formerly of Plainville, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family, on Wednesday, September 7, 2011.
She was born in Brooklyn, NY on March 3, 1937, one of six children to the late Thomas and Florence (Marciniak) Guzowski. She moved to Connecticut in the early sixties where she raised her adored family of four. She leaves her legacy of hard work at Emhart, where she was a dedicated employee for more than thirty years, retiring in 1997. A die hard Yankee fan, she had a special fondness for Jeter and Mariano, and enjoyed many trips to the beach, fulfilling her joy for being near the ocean. A loving mother, grandmother, and aunt, she loved nothing more than being surrounded by her family, who shared their same love for her in return. She will forever be remembered for her strong will and feistiness, and leaves her family with many special memories.
Marion is survived by her children, Joseph E. Bekanich and his wife, Odalys of Avon, Carolyn Yousef and her husband, Waad of Avon, Christine McDougal and her companion, Jose Arrastia of Newington, and Steven T. Bekanich and his companion, Karen Shaughnessy of West Hartford; her grandchildren, Robert, Leslie, Emily, Julia, Samantha, Adam, Scotty, and Matthew; and five great grandchildren. She also leaves many nieces and nephews, with whom she shared a special bond, especially Geri, Flory, Linda, Mickey, and Philip; her extended family, Dennis, Janie, Cindy, and Emilio; her dear friend, Cathy Shaughnessy, and her beloved dog, Casey. She was predeceased by her granddaughter, Jennifer, 3 brothers and 2 sisters.
