Valerie Biesiadecki

It is with profound love and gratitude that we celebrate the life of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, Valerie (Cala) Biesiadecki , who entered eternal rest on September 8, 2025.

A woman of extraordinary strength, grace, and joy, she lived her life in service to others. A devoted single mother, she raised her four daughters with unwavering love and made countless sacrifices, while also nurturing dozens of children throughout her long career as a childcare provider. To know her was to be touched by her generosity, her warmth, and her laughter.

She was a woman of many passions—an artist with a creative spirit, a historian deeply fascinated by the World Wars and Roman civilization, and a proud Italian who rekindled her native language and treasured her heritage. She adored the theatre, cherished time with her many friends and family, and filled every gathering with light, humor, and love.

A devoted daughter, she tirelessly cared for her parents in their final years, embodying selflessness and compassion. Her faith was a guiding force throughout her life; as a devout Catholic, she held a deep devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe until her final days.

She is survived by her loving brother, Sam (Marta); her four daughters, Denise (Jeff), Lisa (Steve), Kim (Mike), and Nicole (Mike); eight grandchildren, Nicholas (Amanda), Alysha (Chad), Nikki, Michael, Michael (Lauren), Lindsay (Javier), Mia (Adam), and Ava; and five great-grandchildren, Logan, Riley, Michael, Tucker, and Sophia. She will be remembered as the heart of her family and a beacon of joy and love to all who knew her.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held in her honor at Our Lady of Guadalupe on October 3 at 10:00 a.m.

Her legacy of love, laughter, strength, and faith will continue to live on in the many lives she touched.
