KUCZENSKI, Trisha Jennie

“Life is too short . . . Live it to the fullest . . . And love like there is no tomorrow!” Trisha Kuczenski will be deeply missed by many friends and family due to a tragic car accident. Taken too soon at the age of 39, Trisha lived her life to the fullest. Anyone who knew Trisha would describe her as friendly, energetic, compassionate, creative, talented, and inspiring. Trisha would light up a room with her beautiful smile and positive energy.

Trisha is the loving daughter of Christine Irving (Brian) and the late Steven Kuczenski. Mourning her loss are her two precious children, Hunter Kuczenski and Grace McClelland, who will miss her dearly. Trisha is the granddaughter of the late George Marshall (Pamela), the late Jackie Marshall, the late Verne and late Brenda Kuczenski. Trisha was also a very special niece to the late Norman Kuczenski (Jodie) and a great niece to many.

Hunter and Grace were the highlight of Trisha’s life.  When Hunter was born her whole world changed; she now had her beautiful baby boy.  A few years later, her beautiful baby girl Grace was born. Trisha’s life was now complete. Hunter and Grace are Trisha’s pride and joy.

Trisha was born on April 12, 1982, in Sault Ste. Marie and grew up in Gros Cap. Trisha was a personal support worker.  She loved her job. She will be missed by her colleagues and her clients. 

Trisha was the highlight of everyone’s life. Trisha had a contagious laugh. Throughout the years, Trisha made a lot of good friends and a lot of friends for life through outdoor activities and recreational sports. She was an amazing human being.  Trisha was gifted as the friendliest person one would ever meet with her fun-loving spirit.  Trisha had a big heart.  Trisha could walk into a crowd not knowing anyone and in no time at all walk out with a group of new friends. Trisha was one of a kind and as Grandma Daigle would say “She had a lot of spunk!” 

Her Papa George was an inspiration, a positive influence, and her biggest fan.  She loved him very much. Trisha loved her Mom beyond words.  Her Mom’s entire existence was based on the love for her daughter. Trisha loved her Dad very much and he was very proud of her.  He will be waiting for her with open arms in heaven.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund will be set up for her mother and Trisha’s children to assist with an educational trust for their future. Link to GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/20c3d4e6
