Denise Lojko

Denise Maureen Lojko, 80 of Milford, passed away peacefully on March 19, 2025. Denise was born on February 26, 1945, in the Bronx, NY to the late Dennis and Dorothy Mackey. Denise was the beloved wife of 59 years to Eugene J. Lojko.

Denise was a devoted wife, mother, and friend, whose love and dedication touched the lives of all who knew her. For over 30 years, she worked as a medical billing agent for home health care organizations, bringing her professionalism and compassion to every task. Denise met the love of her life, Eugene, in their early 20s through a mutual friend. From the moment they met, Eugene knew she was the one he would marry, and in 1966, that dream became a reality. Together, they built a life full of love and laughter, settling in Milford in 1971 to raise their family.

Denise and Eugene shared a special bond with their dear friends Bill and Tina Demuth, enjoying countless evenings of spirited card games, particularly Canasta. These games often stretched for hours, sometimes days, as they added an extra deck for more fun, but the laughter and camaraderie always made the time spent together unforgettable.

A passionate gardener and home improvement enthusiast, Denise took great pride in her home, always seeking new ways to make it a beautiful and welcoming place. Her love for reading was boundless, often finishing up to five books a week, constantly expanding her knowledge and fueling her imagination.

Denise’s legacy is one of kindness, joy, and a deep appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends but will be remembered for the love and warmth she shared with all.

In addition to her beloved husband, Eugene, Denise is survived by their two children: son Keith Lojko (Kathleen) and daughter Kimberly Molster (Dave). Four grandchildren: Andrew Lojko, Timothy Lojko, Madeline Lojko, and Daniel Molster. As well as her brother Kevin Mackey (Helen), and many beloved family and friends. She is predeceased by her brother Richard Mackey.
