Jerome J. "Jerry" Kulwicki, age 77, passed away suddenly on Friday, June 6, 2025.

He was born June 19, 1947 to Joseph and Regina (Gawronski) Kulwicki in Cleveland, OH.

Loving husband of 55 years to Helen (nee Pfeifer); proud father of Jason (Cathy) and dear brother of Joseph (Fran-deceased) of Michigan and James (Debbie). His grandchildren, Jayden and Dora were the apple of his eyes. He always said Dora gives the best hugs and enjoyed hearing about their many soccer games. He also leaves behind cousin Steve Kowalski and Karen McGregor of Cleveland, and many nieces and
nephews.

Jerry worked at the Plain Dealer as a journeyman Pressman for 25 years before moving to Arizona and continued working for the Arizona Republic. We moved back to Ohio in 2014 after Helen's retirement to be closer to the grandkids whom he dearly loved.

Visitation will be held from 4-7 p.m., Wednesday, June 18, 2025, at Waite Funeral Home, 3300 Center Rd., Brunswick, followed by a Memorial Service at 7 p.m.
