Eddie's obituary

Edward "Eddie" Ksiazek passed away on April 1, 2025, in Lapeer, Michigan, at the age of 60. Born on June 15, 1964, in Lapeer, Eddie brought warmth and laughter into the world from the very beginning.

A soul drawn to nature’s rhythm, Eddie found joy in the outdoors—whether hunting, fishing, or simply watching and feeding the birds and squirrels. He worked for “Falcon Lawn Sprinklers inc” which was owned/created by his dad when Eddie was born, which lead him to branch off into his own business that he was proudly known as “Eddie’s Lawn Sprinklers” and that right there reflected his passion for people the open air and sunshine . He was known for carrying dog treats in his truck, he never missed a chance to share kindness with any four-legged friend he met along his route. Even in his final days, wrapped in his robe and seated outside in his chair with his youtube reels in his hand, Eddie stayed connected to the wild beauty he so cherished right around him.

He found freedom on two wheels and shared his love of biking with his puppy dog grandkids. His sense of humor and  knowledgeable aspects on life left an indelible mark on those who knew him.

Eddie’s memory lives on through his siblings: Rebecca Daudlin; Susan (Joe) Rakecki; Linda (Todd) Halifax; Mike (Lisa) Ksiazek; and Steven Ksiazek. He is also remembered by his longtime girlfriend of 18 years, Michelle Shrader; step-children Nicole(Susan Jr), Andrew, and Ericka(Grasshopper) ; and all his puppy-dog grandchildren Natalie, Nathan, Beau, Nevaeh and Layney; and numerous nieces and nephews Jessie, David, Larry, Neil, Chelsea, and many more who adored their fun-loving uncle Ralph.

He now joins those who passed before him: his parents Theodore and Grace; sisters Ann and Nancy; niece Kimmy; nephew Nick (Georgina) ; and wife Cheryl.

Cremation has taken place. Arrangements were entrusted to Jansen Family Funeral Home – Columbiaville.

And a celebration will take place at his brothers/Falcon Lawn Sprinklers on his birthday.

Cheers to Eddie! Yabba Dabba Doo!!
