Margaret S. “Marge” Krzycki, age 80, of Sturgis, passed away peacefully early Friday morning, August 22, 2025, at Elkhart General Hospital.
Born on August 30, 1944 in Detroit, she was the daughter of the late Zigman and Helen (Kostival) Paszkiewicz. Marge moved to Sturgis in 1975 from Detroit, the city where she married the love of her life, Walter S. “Wally” Krzycki, on October 28, 1966. They shared a devoted life together until his passing on April 10, 2021.
Marge was a woman of great warmth and quiet strength. She worked as a postal carrier for 10 years and later operated her own home cleaning business. She was a longtime member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in White Pigeon, where her faith was a guiding presence throughout her life.
A dedicated volunteer, Marge gave her time to Sturgis Public Schools, helping young students discover the joy of reading. She was a talented painter, a skilled crocheter, and enjoyed playing the guitar and engaging in all kinds of arts and crafts. She loved watching birds and found great happiness traveling with Wally.
She is survived by her son, David (Alecia) Krzycki of Marcellus; her daughter, Lisa (Kris) Bagchi of San Diego, and four cherished grandchildren: Jordan Marie, Jackson Bryce, Arlo, and Farrah. She is also survived by her brother, Dan (Lori) Paszkiewicz of Sterling Heights; nieces Samantha Paszkiewicz and Julie Presley; and many dear friends and extended family.
In honoring Marge’s wishes, cremation has taken place. The family will receive friends on Friday, September 12th from 9:00 to 11:00 A.M. at St. Joseph Catholic Church in White Pigeon. A Funeral Mass celebrating Marge’s life will follow at 11:00 with Rev. Father Richard Altine officiating. A graveside committal will take place immediately following the Mass at St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery.
Memorial contributions or Mass intentions may be directed to St. Joseph Catholic Church, 16603 US 12, White Pigeon, MI 49099.
