Penny A. Pilarski

Penny was a graduate of Dunkirk High School, class of 1976. She married her high school sweetheart, Timothy J. Pilarski, in 1976. She was employed by M. Wile and Co. and retired from Hills Dept. store.

One of Penny’s greatest passions was her love for Jesus Christ, and assisting her husband in ministry, as he pastored Victory Family Church in Ripley, NY. Her giving spirit and love for people touched many lives.

One of her greatest joys was spending time with her beloved grandson Balin. And she also enjoyed; spending time with family and friends, meeting her sisters for tea/coffee every week at Tim Hortons, sharing tea and much laughter down by the lake with her closest friends. Tea and HGTV were her favorites, along with her many meals at Domus Fare with her husband made special by the awesome staff. Penny’s contagious laughter and beautiful smile will be greatly missed.

Penny is survived by her loving husband of 49 years, Timothy Pilarski; her daughter Holly Pilarski; her grandson Balin Rader; sister Amy (Louie) DiPietro, Tracy Briggs, Toni Rae (Jeffrey) Benedict; step siblings April Hill and Nicholas (Julie Anne) DiLorenzo; brother-in-law Don Winder. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her parents Harvey Bloss and Jeanenne (Gadewoltz) DiLorenzo, stepfather Anthony DiLorenzo, sisters Kathleen (late Jim) Quick, Cynthia (Knobby) Bielat, Robin Winder, and Jeannene (late Dave) Gizowski.

By the request of her family in honoring Penny’s wishes, there will be no services held.
