GRANGER - Alex A. Stopczynski, 81, of Michigan, formerly of Granger, IN, passed away April 10, 2008, with his loving wife and nine children at his side. Born July 21, 1926, he was the son of the late Ignatius and Josephine Stopczynski.

On February 7, 1948, Alex married Mary Catherine (Kintz) Stopczynski, who survives. Also surviving are five daughters, Carolyn (Phil) Malstaff of Granger, Linda (Booge) Einfalt of South Bend, Patty (Rodney) Snyder of South Bend, Joan (Jack) Thomas of Hastings, MI, and Pam (Kim) Daugherty of Granger; four sons, Jim Stopczynski of Indianapolis, Dr. Bob (Gisela) Stopczynski of Granger, Bill Stopczynski of Elkhart and John Stopczynski of Mishawaka; two sisters, Virginia Dworecki of South Bend and Theresa Walczewski of Granger; one brother, Bernard Stopczynski of South Bend; 20 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. Alex was a U.S. Army veteran of World War II. He enjoyed fishing, camping and being outdoors. He was an avid gardener and liked to share his produce with family and friends. He had a great love for animals, especially his two dogs, Luke and Lucy. He worked as an automatic transmission specialist for years, but farming was the passion that he did his entire life.

He attended St. Pius X Catholic Church and St. Ann's Catholic Church, Cassopolis. Friends may call today from 3 to 6 p.m. in the McGann Hay, Granger Chapel, SR 23. A funeral Mass will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Monday in St. Pius X Catholic Church, where friends may call one hour prior. Memorial contributions may be made to the charity of the donor's choice.
