Obituary: Carl Walter Mutrynowski, 74, of Fairfield

From Lesko & Polke Funeral Home

Carl Walter Mutrynowski, 74, of Fairfield, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, February 7, 2017 at St. Vincent's Medical Center with his family by his side. Born in Bridgeport, Carl was the son of the late Walter and Anna (Washinski) Mutrynowski.

Carl was a resident of Fairfield for the past 66 years. He attended Andrew Warde High School and graduated with the class of 1962. Following graduation, he worked for more than 30 years as a machinist for Avco/Lycoming/Textron until his retirement in 1997. Once retired, Carl took part-time jobs for the Town of Westport working as a crossing guard during the school year and as a security guard at the Westport Marina.

He loved interacting with the children at his crossing post and took his job seriously, making sure the children were safe. His love of the water and fishing served him well with his post at the Marina. He enjoyed chatting with all the boat owners and visitors at the marina and sharing fish tales.

He also enjoyed the occasional visits to Foxwoods Casino and Mohegan Sun where he would make donations now and then.

Carl was a quiet man who did things his way. He was a good and loyal son, brother, uncle, and friend- always there whenever someone needed help. He never asked for anything in return. He will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him, including his loving brother, Allen Mutrynowski and his wife Barbara of Shelton; his beloved nieces, Jennifer Falzone and Jessica Ligouri; and seven great nieces and nephews.

Friends may greet the family on Saturday, February 18, 2017 from 10-11 a.m. with a service to be held at 11 a.m. in the Lesko & Polke Funeral Home, 1209 Post Road, in Fairfield Center. His Interment will be held privately at Oak Lawn Cemetery.
