Obituary

 

Jennie C. (Wojtowitz) Szarlan, 95, a lifelong resident of Ludlow, MA, passed away with family and friends by her side on Saturday, April 20, 2019.  Born October 22, 1923, she was the daughter of the late Thomas and Katarczyna Wojtowitz.  She spoke often and fondly of working at the Ludlow Housing Authority until she was in her 80s. Prior to that time, she was employed at a manufacturing company and the Nixon Company. Her most important job, though, was being a Mom.   Jennie was a communicant of Christ the King Church.

 

Sadly, Jennie was predeceased by her husband John P. Szarlan in 1976 and her son John T. Szarlan, of whom she was very proud, in 2007.  Jennie was also predeceased by her brothers Steve, Mitchell and Frank and her sister Anna Molta.  She leaves many nieces and nephews.
