Stanley Steven Michalski Jr.

Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Stanley was the beloved son of Stanley and Gloria (Gaylor) Michalski. He was educated at St. Jerome’s Catholic School and Southern High School, where he formed lifelong friendships and a strong work ethic that carried him throughout his life.

Stan dedicated 38 years of service to Northrop Grumman in Linthicum, where he was a valued and respected employee. Outside of work, he found joy in spending time at the beach, listening to music, riding his bike, and researching family history through his passion for genealogy. He had a deep appreciation for both the past and the simple pleasures of everyday life.

Stan was the devoted husband of Bridgette Lilley Michalski, with whom he shared 24 loving years of marriage. Stan was the dear brother of Gale Miller, Richard Michalski (Karen) and, Michele Bucher; also survived by seven cherished nieces and nephews, all of whom will remember him for his kindness, quiet strength, and gentle spirit.

Stan will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
