    My husband, Rob Baskerville and I are so very sorry to hear of the passing of Edward Ziobrowski. I have known him since childhood to be a robust, outgoing man with an excellent mind. He was a man who was always learning and had keen interests and strong, informed opinions. Ed Ziobrowski was rightfully proud of his Polish heritage.. I recall in later years having a warm visit with him and his wife Jeannette while they still resided in Putnam with Mr. Ziobrowski graciously asking me to please come back anytime. ..I especially remember how he loved polkas!.. John, Ann, Stephanie, Joe and other family members, you are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.

    I remember very well his visit to Poland. But I specially remember my first records bought by Edi. It’s amazing.

    Steph, Dave and family,
    Ed must have been a truly great person. Perhaps the greatest tribute we can pay to someone is to be able to admire them through their children. This being the case, Ed has my greatest admiration and respect. To have known him through Steph is a great honor and just a great treat. You have our hearfelt condolences and warmest thoughts at this time.
    Love,
    Marc and Cheryl

    Always looked forward to a visit with Eddie and swapping “war” stories.
    Will miss him.

    I remember Mr. Ziobrowski (and his mother’s christmas cards, from”Sziabrowska”) delivering the mail, always extremely nice to us kids and always had a candy for us all. We loved to see him.

    My dad always used to talk about his cousin and Chutka (?sp.) Eva.
    I supposed they are both in heaven now, NOT delivering the mail.
