Joseph M. "Bud" Tomasiak, Jr., 81, passed away peacefully on
Wednesday, September 4, 2019, at the Hospice of the Valley's Hospice
House in Poland, OH.

He was born February 27, 1938, in Warren, the son of the late Joseph
and Ann Anderchek Tomasiak.

"Bud" married Patricia Mascio on August 5, 1961, in Warren, where they
lived until 1980. After many years in California, they settled into
retirement in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. They were lovingly married
for 55 years until the Lord took Patty into Heaven. Their deep love
for one another was unconditional and everlasting.

He served in the United States Air Force from 1956 until 1962, where
he received medals for Honest and Faithful Sevice. His career work in
telecommunications began locally with the United Telephone Company and
concluded as a Registered Communications Distribution Designer at
UCLA.

Over the years, Bud loved fishing, golfing, and bowling and was a
fierce competitor. Later in life, Bud and Patty would enjoy occasional
trips to the casino as well as rooting together for their favorite
sports teams.

Memories of Bud will be carried on by his sisters Bernadette "Bernie"
(Jim) Swartz of Cortland and Dolly (Ken) Bahrey of Howland; his
brother John Tomasiak of Niles; his sister-in-law Sandy Tomasiak of
Champion and brother-in law Edward Mascio of Huntington Beach, CA.;
and many nieces and nephews who he and Aunt Patty loved very much.
He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Patricia; brother,
James Tomasiak; sister, Joan Cech and brother-in-law Andrew Cech; and
sister, Evelyn Fabrizio and brother-in-law John Fabrizio.

There will be a committal service on Saturday, September 14, 2019, at
9:30 a.m. at All Souls Cemetery, with the Reverend Monsignor John
Zuraw officiating.

The family extends its deepest thanks to all those who provided care
to Bud these last few years in Arizona and Ohio. Your compassion was
greatly appreciated.

Arrangements are entrusted to the Peter Rossi & Son Memorial Chapel,
1884 North Road, Warren.
