Paul Ignaszewski

Paul D. Ignaszewski, 96, of Athol, MA., passed away peacefully on March 23, 2026. Paul was born on November 30, 1929, in Burlington, Vermont to the late Clyde J. and Lois (Turner) Ignaszewski Sr. Paul was a long-time resident of Athol where he and his wife Jean raised their family.

Paul proudly served his country as a private first class in the United States Marine Corps from 1949 to 1959 with an honorable discharge.

Those who knew him will remember his great sense of humor and his devotion and love to his family. He enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, especially those that involved the outdoors - camping with his family, hunting, boating, but especially his special times fishing with his son Steven.

Paul is survived by his son Steven P. Ignaszewski. He was pre-deceased by the love of his life, his wife, Jean M. (Allen) Ignaszewski; his beautiful daughter Chris Ann Ignaszewski; sister Thelma L. Powers; brother Clyde J. Ignaszewski Jr.; brothers-in-law Robert Allen and Roger Allen. He is survived by several nieces and nephews.

Paul's passing comes shortly after Jean's, and it brings great comfort to know they are together once again.

A graveside service for both Paul and Jean will take place in the near future.
