David Abramowski

Mr. David W. Abramowski of Greers Ferry, Ariz,, passed away Wednesday, Nov. 20, at his daughter’s home in Montgomery, Texas. He was 68 years old.

David was born Dec. 30, 1950, in Milwaukee, Wis., to Earl F. Abramowski and Rose Marie (Rozek) Doyle. 

David grew up in Port Washington and graduated from Port Washington High School with the Class of 1970.  

After high school, he served the country he loved during the Vietnam War in the U.S. Air Force. 

 He worked the majority of his life as a marketing manager in airline catering, which allowed him to travel and explore the world.

David was a fun loving, generous and easy-going man who loved his children and grandchildren.  

From the time he was a small child, he had a sweet tooth, and as an adult one of his favorite things to do was order vast amounts of candies and goodies online, sharing them with his friends and family. He loved cooking and baking and shared his culinary creations with his family and neighbors. 

He enjoyed camping, particularly in Arkansas, where he eventually bought a home so that he could do the things he loved — fishing, gardening, raising chickens and spending time with his two dogs, Buddy and Charlie.  

His exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam led to a multitude of health problems over the years, culminating in chronic health issues which eventually overtook him. 

He is survived by his two children, Jessica (Jason) Vaughan and David (Michelle) Abramowski. He is further survived by three grandchildren,  Jordan Williamson and Matthew and Emilia Vaughan; four siblings, Daniel (Mary) Abramowski, Debra (Jim) Rieck, Denise (Ron) Larson and Dale (Lina) Abramowski; nieces; nephews; other relatives; and many friends. 

David was preceded in death by his parents and his niece Megan Abramowski.

The family will receive visitors at Eernisse Funeral Home, 1600 W. Grand Ave., Port Washington, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday June 20, 2020.  

A private family service will be held at 1 p.m. following the visitation.

He will be laid to rest with military honors at Union Cemetery in Port Washington. 

Eernisse Funeral Home, Port Washington, is honored to serve the family. Online condolences may be left at www.eernsisefuneralhome.com.
