November 14, 1933 — January 25, 2019
Theodore Ralph Wesolowski passed away at the Memorial Hospital at Gulfport, Mississippi on Friday, January 25, 2019.
Ted was born to Theodore John and Anna Rose (Niedziela) Wesolowski on November 14, 1933 in Adams, Massachusetts. He married Bessie Sue Becker on February 6, 1959 at the Randolph Air Force Base Chapel in San Antonio, Texas. He is survived by his son Matthew and his wife Shelley, daughter Nancy Vaille and her husband Kevin, son Adam and his wife Kristina, twelve grandchildren, four great-grandchildren, sister Loryn Deane, and brother Frederick and his wife Ruth. He was preceded in death by his parents, wife Sue, daughter Catherine, son Mark, brother Joe and his wife Marion, sister Alice Filip and her husband John, and brother-in-law Edward Deane.
Ted graduated from Adams High School in 1951. He enlisted in the Air Force in 1952. His assignments included Bremerhaven, Germany; Kelly AFB, TX; Westover AFB, MA; RAF Mildenhall, England; Vietnam; Hickam AFB, HI; and Blytheville AFB, AR. His decorations included the Air Force Commendation Medal, the Air Force Good Conduct Medal, and the Vietnam Campaign Medal. Ted retired from the Air Force as a Senior Master Sergeant in 1973 after more than 21 years of service, and then had another long and distinguished career in the civil service. He valued the importance of learning and higher education, and received his Bachelor of Applied Arts and Science with highest honors in May 1981 from Southwest Texas State University.
Ted was a devoted husband and father who always put family first. He will be remembered as a selfless man and friend to many. Ted spent much of his later years doing what he loved, reading and painting.
Ted will be cremated at the Riemann Family Funeral Home in Gulfport, and will be buried in his family plot at the Saint Stanislaus Kostka Cemetery in Adams, Massachusetts at a future date to be determined.
