November 24, 1928 — August 4, 2016
Delores J. "Dee" Recznik, 87, of Kent, passed away Thursday, August 4, 2016 at Summa Akron City Hospital.
She was born November 24, 1928 in Lorain, OH to Anthony and Gladys (Tanski) Drobiszewski. Delores grew up on the shores of Lake Erie where she met the love of her life, John, a lifeguard on Lakeview Beach. Little did they know then that they would spend 67 years together. Delores pursued a variety of interests throughout her life. She had an avid love of art. She was a seamstress for her family, constructed many floral arrangements, and liked to sketch. Delores held several jobs including: bookkeeper, fashion model for Higbies in Cleveland, cook and crossing-guard for Longcoy Elementary school, and Avon Lady for 50 years. She helped found a local Red Hat's group, "The Red Hot Steppers". Delores will be remembered for her teaching wisdom, generosity towards others, her witty personality, and her love of family and friends. She is greatly missed by many. Mom, our sorrow is heavy, but we find peace in knowing you are happy.
