Stephen J Jasinski, 86, of Utica, NY moved on to the next stage of his life journey on January 19, 2021. He died with strength and grace, after a brave battle with Covid-19.
Steve was born in Binghamton in 1934, the son of John and Mary Jasinski. He was raised in Utica, and graduated from local schools. He was fun-loving and shared that spirit with his four siblings. He proudly served in the US Army as a Master Sergeant.
In 1958, he married Anne Supinski of Waterville. Together they raised a loving family of children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Steve was an accomplished sales professional and retired from 3M Pharmaceuticals in 1990. He enjoyed life fully with Anne, his family and friends, and was an avid golfer, reader, traveler, and classic car afficionado. Show him a glimpse of any car bumper and he could tell you its year, make, model, engine, etc.
But more than anything, he loved family adventures, whether great or small. He was survived by his wife Anne who passed away on April 4, 2021. Surviving are sons Tom (Claudia) and Joe (Robin), and daughter Theresa Stadnick (Glenn); beloved grandchildren Greg (Shannon), Marie, Sam Stadnick, and Carey Greggila (Chris); and cherished great-granddaughters Liana and Caylin. He is also survived by brother David (Barbara), sister Teddy Radley (Ted), siblings-in-law Camille and Ed, and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, as well as his brother John, and sister Maryann Stark. Although Steve had to move on for now, he leaves us with fond memories of his bright smile, big hugs, and generous love.
The family is especially grateful to the doctors, nurses, and professionals of St. Elizabeth’s hospital, who brought Steve expert care, and sincere compassion.
