Obituary of Kenneth Ludwick Szeluga

Kenneth “Ken” Ludwick Szeluga, 68, of Tucson, AZ, unexpectedly passed away on Friday, December 8. Ken leaves behind his wife Sherrie, children Kristie (Scott) Van Engelen and Kayce Kirby, four grandchildren, sister Debra Szeluga, cousin Craig (Lynda) Sangiovanni, niece Michelle Sangiovanni, and many more family and friends. Ken was preceded in death by his parents, Ludwick and Marion Szeluga. 

Ken was a gentle soul who found joy in the quiet moments of life. He valued hard work, honesty, and the value of a man’s word. A generosity of spirit that left an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to be graced by his vast knowledge of all things. His love for aviation was only surpassed by the love he showered upon his grandkids. With a passion for the skies, he will be remembered for his quiet strength and cherished memories. May his spirit soar high, forever watching over those he held dear. 

At this time, no public services are planned. Instead of flowers, the family requests donations be made in Ken’s honor to Southern Arizona Teen Aviation.
