Edward Przybylski

Edward Joseph Przybylski, 75, of Beloit, Wisconsin, passed away on September 30, 2025.

Born and raised on Chicago’s South Side, Edward attended Lindblom Math and Science Academy and received his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from DeVry University. A gifted and self-taught handyman, Ed started learning and working hands-on with mentors at Pluskota Electrical at age of fourteen.

His successful career as an electrical supervisor included stints at Nabisco, Campbell's Soup, Sweetheart Cup, and finally retiring from Hormel Foods. In 1975, online dating was futuristic. But it was here that Ed met his sweetheart and future wife, Linda Weil. The couple was married for 50 years. Ed was not a talkative man unless the conversation aligned naturally, but the couple’s first phone call lasted four hours. He had met his match. He was a talented free-hand drawer throughout his life. Sketching was his salvation.

He also enjoyed collecting stamps, knives, and guns. Ed and his family lived most of their life in Chicago, but for seven years in Mesa, Arizona. They returned to the Midwest to be close to family and spent the last two decades in Beloit.

Edward was the proud father of Jeffrey and the fond uncle of many.

He was preceded in death by his parents Joseph and Josephine Przybylski (nee Migas).
