Dorothy Kozloski, 95, Little Suamico, passed away Saturday, Aug. 8, 2026, at Alpha Senior Concepts in Suamico. Dorothy was born Sept. 27, 1930, to the late Sam and Adele Patenaude.
On April 7, 1951, Dorothy married Richard Kozloski. The couple shared 71 wonderful years together. Dorothy cleaned the Little Suamico Grade School and then Abrams Grade School for many years.

In addition to her husband, Richard, she was preceded in death by an infant daughter; a son-in-law, Dick Schaden; granddaughter, Melissa Peters; great-grandson, Ethan Barron; two sisters, Vivian (Dan) Kozloski and Mary Ann Hernet; father-in-law and mother-in-law, John and Marie Kozloski; brother-in-law, Chester (Betty) Kozloski; and sisters-in-law, Lucille (William) Drzewiecki and Dorothy (Kenneth) Diederich.
Friends are invited to gather at Marnocha Funeral Home, 186 E. Pulaski St., Pulaski, on Monday, Aug. 17, from 10 a.m. until noon. The funeral service will be held at noon. Burial will be in Riverside Cemetery, Suamico.
