Bernard B. Zalewski
Bernie graduated from P.J. Jacobs High School, Stevens Point in 1958. He had a career in the elevator industry beginning as a mechanic for Westinghouse Elevator Company before becoming a Wisconsin State Elevator Safety Specialist and retiring in 2000.
Bernie was a social man. He was a member of St. Anthony Catholic Church Men’s Club, Knights of Columbus, and the choir. Any time help was needed, Bernie was your go-to guy. He never said no to anyone and had a sixth sense, offering to help before it was needed.
Over the years he and his bride took many trips making many great friends. Bernie loved to fish, hunt, cook, and cut wood. In retirement he enjoyed many hobbies including, watching NASCAR and cooking shows, wild ricing, pig roasting, and playing cards. He derived great satisfaction building equipment for his hobbies.
His greatest joy was spending time with his family. Casual gatherings, vacations, celebrations, birthdays, and holidays lead to great story telling, laughter, and joy.
Services will be held at St. Anthony Catholic Church, Lac du Flambeau, on Saturday, May 29. Visitation will begin at 9 a.m. with mass at 11 a.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to St. Anthony Catholic Church, 650 Old Abe Road, Lac du Flambeau, WI 54538.
