Zielinski

David P. Zielinski, 67, of McCandless Township, went to be with the Lord Friday afternoon, Nov. 17, 2023.

“Dave” was born in Pittsburgh, on May 9, 1956, to the late Mr. Edward Zielinski and the late Mrs. Mildred Zielinski.

He is survived by his wife of 34 years, Sandrea (Mulneix) Zielinski; and his stepson, Jayson Stein (fiancée Holly).

Also surviving are two brothers, Raymond (Ann) Zielinski of Colorado Springs, Colo., and James (Mary) Zielinski of DeLand, Fla.; a niece, Linnea (fiancé Cody); and three nephews, Paul, Mark and Carl (Victoria).

Dave will not only be missed by his immediate family, but also by the many relatives from the Mulneix family, many co-workers, neighbors and many friends.

David was at Allegheny college for two years and went on to graduate from the University of Pittsburgh with a bachelor's degree in chemistry. He worked for PPG Industries in his early career, moved to Michigan for a position with Dupont, and then retired after 25 plus years at Covestro.

Dave attended services at Christ Church of Grove Farm, where he and Sandy were involved in many activities over the years. Since he retired, the couple had been enjoying travels to different destinations.

He was an avid golfer in the summer and an avid bowler in the winter. Dave could do almost any home repair from electrical to plumbing to drywall. He was always puttering in his work shop, which is what he was doing at the end of his life.
