Funeral Card of Dominik Kowalski
This is the funeral card of my great-grandfather, Dominik Kowalski. Dominik immigrated to the United States in 1912 and settled in Cleveland. His wife, Wladyslawa, came over the following year with their three young sons, Stanley, John, and Joseph. Wladyslawa, or "Lottie" as she was known by, passed away in 1919 of appendicitis and Dominik remarried in 1921. By the early to mid-1920s, Dominik had established a neighborhood hardware store, which he maintained until he retired. He and his second wife, Lucy, moved to Arizona sometime in the mid-1940s, and they stayed there the rest of their lives.
