Richard D. Kulinski

Richard "Dick" Kulinski, beloved husband, father, papa, and brother, passed away peacefully on August 26, 2026. Born to Thaddeus and Hedwig Kulinski, he enjoyed 49 loving years of marriage with his soulmate, Carole (née Watkins). Together, they raised three devoted daughters: Marie (Michael Decker) Green, Patti (Daniel) Daigler, and Jennifer (David) Siwa. His legacy continues through his cherished grandchildren Rebecca, Rollen, Eric, Brendan, Grace, Owen, Cole, and Eli, and great-grandchildren Soloman, Norah, and Rory. Dick shared a deep bond with his brother Daniel Kulinski.

A man of many passions, Dick was an avid outdoorsman who found joy in hunting, fishing, and golfing. His love for reading and his skills as a handyman were well-known, always ready to lend a helping hand or offer guidance.

After dedicating 44 years to General Motors, Dick embraced retirement by becoming a snowbird, embarking on adventures with Carole in their RV to sunny Florida.

Family and friends are invited to gather in remembrance on Monday from 2-4 PM and 6-8 PM at New Comer Cremations & Funerals in Depew. A Celebration of Life will be held at 8:00 PM to honor his remarkable journey.

Please share your condolences and cherish the memories of a life well-lived.
