Stanley "Stan" M. Bloniarz, 80 years of age, died on Sunday, December 6, 2020 at Lexington Medical Center in West Columbia. Born on March 8, 1940 in Star City, WV, he was the son of the late Stanley J. and Margaret A. Bloniarz.
Stan lived a life of passion and adventure, enjoying flying, hunting, fishing, and spending time working on improvements at his home on Lake Murray. He had a strong work ethic and a "do it yourself" mindset, believing that you always finish what you start and you always do things right the first time. He also had a creative side which allowed him to design building projects, learn new skills, and even to successfully make and bottle wine for his family and friends to enjoy. He will be remembered as a go getter who loved his family and lived life fully. Stan was a member of the National Rifle Association and the Morgantown Pilots' Association.
He is survived by his wife and always present partner in adventure of 61 years, Janice Bloniarz; 2 daughters Sheron Bloniarz and Cathy Bloniarz, both of Charlotte, NC; and a brother David Bloniarz of Star City, WV. He was preceded in death by his brother Daniel Bloniarz.
A time of sharing memories will be hosted by the family on December 13, 2020, 2-4 PM at the Mount Olivet Lutheran Church, 2192 Bethel Church Road, Prosperity, SC with the Rev. James Campbell presiding. Social distancing precautions will be observed.
