Mr. Henry R. Levandoski, 98, of Duryea, passed away unexpectedly Thursday, March 24, 2022, at the Meadows Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Dallas after waiting nine years to be reunited with his wife.
Born in Duryea, he was the son of the late Edward and Helen Grzegozewski Lewandowski. He served in the United States Army Air Corp as a staff sergeant during World War II. Prior to his retirement, he was employed by Tobyhanna Army Depot Commissary.

Pamela,and Bob, Ann, Pamela Ann, Shannon, Anna, Emily, Samantha, Andy, Remy, We are so sorry for your loss. Your Dad and Grandfather was such a great and humble man. Who could ask for anyone better!!! He served his country and his family! He always had a great smile and would always ask if you needed anything. He provided for his family! He always made sure you had enough to eat. He always asked about my family and how they were doing. We had some great memories at Cape May, Hilton Head, 69 Curtis St., Bennett St and Hillcrest Drive! We pray that God surrounds you with His Love and grace during this time and in the weeks to come. Love, Dolores and Al
