Alexandria (Olga) Barbara Swiatlon Jegelewicz, age 96, of Stratford, beloved wife of the late Felix Jegelewicz, passed away peacefully on December 26, 2015, in Lord Chamberlain Nursing and Rehabilitation Center with her loving family by her side. Alexandria was born on September 13, 1919 in Derby and was the daughter of the late Stanley and Amalia Judasz Swiatlon. She was employed by Remington Arms and Princess Pat as a trimmer for over 20 years. Alexandria enjoyed spending time with her family, but most of all was a gentle, loving mother who enjoyed dressing up, dancing the polka, visiting the casino and cooking especially her pierogis. She enjoyed word searches, was very proud of her polish heritage "Mamusia, my kochamy ciebie bardzo duzo" and will be remembered by all for her sense of humor. Alexandria is survived by two daughters, Joan Alexandria Johnston and husband Daniel of Williamsville, NY and Phyllis Ann Mast and husband David of Stratford, two grandchildren, Jessie Johnson and husband Rob and Nikki Mast, two great grandsons, Keegan and Grady and several nieces and nephews. In addition to her beloved husband, Felix of 67 years, Alexandria was predeceased by two brothers, John Swiatlon and Al Swiatlon and two sisters, Sophie Tyczkowski and Jane Swiatlon.
