Phillip “PJ” John Dziedzic Jr. passed away on September 18, 2021 at Piedmont Newnan Hospital. He was 40 years old. PJ grew up in Bay View, Wisconsin and graduated from Thomas Moore High School in 1999. He was a silver key winner with the Milwaukee Art Museum, and pursued his passions in art outside of his day job as a journeyman painter. He was a true artist, keeping busy by painting anything and everything from murals to pinstriping cars and bikes. He was an award winning motorcycle builder, restorer of classic Schwinn Sting Rays, avid drummer, wood worker, and tattoo artist. He had a passion for British choppers, top shelf bourbon, and a good cigar. In more recent years he shared his love of BMX bikes with his daughter and wife, taking long bike rides on the many scenic local trails. He loved to cook, especially when family and friends got together. There really wasn’t much that PJ couldn’t do. He married his wife Jennifer on the beach in St. Augustine Florida, with close family and friends in attendance, including their beautiful baby girl Mysha that they had welcomed the previous year. He loved being a husband and father more than anything in the world. He took great pride in being a father to Saul and Isaac. PJ and Jennifer moved to Georgia in 2017 and crossed the country together. In their love of travel, they had fallen in love with the state and knew it was to be their home. He was truly happy here and didn’t take a moment for granted. PJ is preceded in death by his wonderful mother in law, Sharon “Grandma M & M”. He is survived by his devoted wife and best friend Jennifer, treasured daughter Mysha, stepson Saul and his fiance Erin, and stepson Isaac and fiance Montana, and sweet granddaughter Norah “Bean”, best dogs Tybee and Cobb, parents Virginia and Phillip Dziedzic, sister Candace and brother in law Tom Henry, and his dear grandparents John “Poppi” and Pauline “Granny” Dziedzic and Delores Meier. He will be deeply missed by his cherished aunt Paula and uncle Rich Voss, uncle Burt and aunt Joyele Tabora, uncle Albert and aunt Debbie Tabora. His cousins, including Samantha and Maxwell, Ryan and wife Cassie, Joe, AJ, Jamie, Leah, as well many additional loving aunts, uncles, and family members. Countless co-workers and friends are feeling this loss, including brother-in-law Jeff and partner Jodie, and best friends Adam and Leann, Matt and Sam, James, Paulo, Peter and Kristen, Greg and Kristie, Tony “Bagadonutts” and all of his Texas family that welcomed him in like he was their own. He will be deeply missed and the ripple of his passing is going to be felt for a very long time.
