Schenectady- Jessie Helen (Prystup) Krajewski received the gift of heaven on November 7, 2016 at the age of 96. She was born and raised in Schenectady and led an active and busy life. We often wondered how she found the time and energy to be employed full time, raise a family, a household, yet continue to pursue her passion for sewing, knitting, and crocheting.
Jessie is predeceased by her husband Augustyn (Augie) and siblings: Mary Krasucki, Jane Cwalinski and Edward Prystup. Jessie leaves behind those who loved and cherished her the most, daughter, Cindi (Joe) DiFranco and son, Gary Krajewski. She was grandmother to Gregory (Jenn) Krajewski, Christine Krajewski and Zachary DiFranco; great-grandmother to Gavin and Kaden Krajewski and aunt to Claudette Herzog.
Gary and I would like to thank our dear Sr. Bernadette from St. Adalberts Parish and the staff at Capital Living. Their love, kindness and patience was truly a gift from God. Mom, we love you and miss you so much already. You have not departed, but have been welcomed into the Kingdom of our Lord, Jesus Christ. It is never good-bye, for we shall meet again, on the other side. Our Love Always, Cindi and Gary.
Visitation will be from 10 am to 12 pm on Monday, November 14 at New Comer Funeral Home, 343 New Karner Rd, Colonie. A funeral service will be held at 12 pm at the funeral home. Burial will follow at St. Adalbert Cemetery, Schenectady.
Memorial Contributions in Jessie's honor may be made to the Animal Protective Foundation, 53 Maple Ave., Scotia, NY 12302.
