Posuniak, David James
Pinckney, Michigan
David James Posuniak, beloved father, son and brother, passed away suddenly at his home on January 19, 2021. He was born on January 20, 1954, in Dearborn, Michigan to Joseph Walter Posuniak and Genevieve (Kulongowski) Posuniak. He attended St. Cunegunda Catholic school, University of Detroit Jesuit High School and Ferris State College.
David will be missed by his daughters, Michelle (Ryan) Briggs and Stephanie (David) Seery; his siblings; Joel (Mary) Posuniak, AnnMarie Posuniak and Mary Dahl; his four grandchildren, Joseph, John, Janine and Eleanor Elizabeth; and many nieces and nephews. David was a master craftsman and owner of the Lakeland Building Company. Loved by many, he was a brilliant and complicated man. If you had the patience to get through his sometimes salty and steadfast personality, you were pleasantly surprised to find he was really just like those raspberry candies Busha used to give you in church: hard on the outside but soft and sweet on the inside. David is now at eternal peace and rest, reunited with his parents, Joseph and Genevieve Posuniak.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Friday, February 5, 2021 at 10:30am, with a gathering beginning at 9:30am, at St. Patrick Catholic Church, 711 Rickett Road, Brighton, Michigan. Fr. Joseph Campbell will serve as celebrant. Rather than memorial contributions or flowers, David would hope that you will do an unexpected and unsolicited act of kindness for some poor, unfortunate soul, in memory of his name.
Please leave a message of comfort for David’s family at 1-877-231-7900, or sign his guestbook at www.borekjennings.com.
