Narcy Dubicki
Waterford — Attorney Narcy Z. Dubicki, 77, passed away as the sun rose Feb. 24, 2023, at his home in Waterford, following a courageous battle with cancer. He was born Aug. 18, 1945, in a forced labor camp in Westerstede, Germany, son of Stanley and Veronica Dubicki of Cielechowszczyna, Poland. He came to the United States at age 4 with his parents and older siblings, arriving through Boston. They were met by their sponsor family, traveling back to Connecticut, in a milk truck, settling in Norwich. Narcy went on to earn business and law degrees from the University of Connecticut.
Narcy began practicing law in 1972 in New London and was honored last year by the New London County Bar Association for his 50 years of service. He will be remembered for his depth of knowledge, and his willingness to always do the right thing.
He is lovingly remembered by his son Narcyz Jr. “J.R.” and his wife Shannon, of Niantic; and daughter Carley Hauser and partner Ramon Franco Jr., MD, of Framingham, Mass. Also surviving are grandchildren, Tanner and Alexis Dubicki; godson Robert Fenn III; additional nieces and nephews; great-nieces and nephews; sisters-in-law, Sophia Dubicki of Noank, and Shannon Dubicki of Alexandria, Va.; brother-in-law Robert Fenn Jr. of Uncasville; and by his former wife and mother to his children, Sheila Toole Zimmer of Bridgton, Maine.
Narcy served as the patriarch of the family, having been predeceased by his parents, Stanley and Veronica; his brothers, Attorney Henry Dubicki and Zigmont Dubicki; and his sister Margaret Fenn; in addition to nieces, Jamie Bryan Vilani and Vanessa Dubicki; and greatniece Gemma Bryan.
Narcy exuded a zest for life and loved spending time with family, in addition to pursuing travel adventures, and delving into various hobbies, including photography, boating, skiing, learning guitar and planning/ hosting his yearly family gathering. His 1959 Saint Joseph’s School yearbook cites that he was known for “making wisecracks,” and he continued to display a great sense of humor right up to the end, getting a sparkle in his eye, even while having to write out his one-liners by hand.
He will be deeply missed by many, remembered for his exuberance, dependability, generosity of spirit, willingness to help others, and a deeply held belief in The Golden Rule.
His family will greet relatives, and friends from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday, March 11, at the Thomas L. Neilan and Sons Funeral Home, 48 Grand Street, Niantic.
