Molly (Shea) Zawisza, 75, of Southington, CT, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her family on Saturday, November 2, 2024. She was the loving wife of the late Chester “Butch” W. Zawisza, Jr. for 35 years.
Molly was born on April 10, 1949 in Southington, CT to the late Harry and Virginia (Newell) Shea.
Molly graduated from Southington High School and went to work as a flight attendant at the TWA for a few years because she wanted to see the world. Eventually, she retired from the United States Postal Service, where she held various positions during her 25 years of service. After her retirement, Molly worked behind the scenes as the paperwork manager alongside her husband, Butch, at their business, CZ Auto. Molly loved to travel and enjoyed road trips, especially to Nova Scotia. She found peace in the beauty of nature and loved the freedom she felt in the ocean breeze and mountain air. She was also a talented photographer. Molly was a dedicated Anne Murray fan and traveled all over North America to see her shows.
Molly is survived by two children, Chad Zawisza of Tolland, CT and Tara Satkowski of Westfield, MA and two cherished grandchildren, Mia and Jake. She is also survived by her brother, Daniel Shea and wife Trudy of CA, two sisters, Jacci Wagner and husband Jay of SC and Samantha Steeves of TX, stepson, Robert Zawisza and wife Hope of Winsted, step grandchildren, Joseph, Michael, Zachary, Dylan and Colton, as well as step siblings, Richard Pratt of VT, Roger Pratt and wife Sandy of NH and Lin Nelson of NH and many nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents and her husband Butch, Molly was predeceased by her stepson, Joseph Zawisza.
