Darryl Lee Pastirak

February 7, 2021

Darryl Lee Pastirak, “Big D”, age 67, of Monroeville, passed away on Sunday, February 7, 2021. Darryl is the son of the late Joseph B. and Dorothy (Zielinski) Pastirak. He is survived by his wonderful wife Janice (Rupert) and his best friend and son Darryl Joseph. He is also survived by his sister, Carol (Tim) Thorsen and sister-in-law, Patricia (Gene) McBryar; nieces and nephews, Jennifer (Sean) Friday, Gene (Kim) McBryar and Matt (Charlotte) Thorsen; great nieces and nephews, Luke and Hannah Friday, and Kendall, Gavin and Shane McBryar; also survived by many cousins and even more friends. Everyone was somebody to “Big D”. Everyone was interesting. Everyone knew something important. He loved to tease, joke, and live it up with everyone as only he could, and everyone has a unique personal memory of him. I don’t think anybody feels that Big D didn’t squeeze every bit out of life, giving it all he had to do some good. So, everyone look back, smile, and laugh at your memories with him. He was like no one else and loved knowing you all. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at Christ the Divine Shepherd Parish at North American Martyrs Church, 2526 Haymaker Road, Monroeville, on Tuesday, February 16, 2021 at 11:00AM. Guests are asked to wear masks and practice social distancing in accordance with COVID-19 Guidelines. If capacity is exceeded, we ask guests to limit their visiting time after mass to allow everyone the opportunity to pay their respects.
