Robert Kulikowski of Chester County passed away on Sunday, March 1, 2026 at Brandywine at Longwood in Kennett Square. He was 70 years old.
Born in Bridgeport, Connecticut, to the late Edward and Wilmia Kulikowski, Bob was a man defined by loyalty and a deep appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. Whether on the golf course, cheering for Fairfield University basketball, or spending time with his family, he was a constant, steady presence. He will be remembered as a devoted husband, father, and grandfather who truly put his loved ones first.
He is survived by his wife, Marie Kulikowski; his daughter and son-in-law, Kim and Wade Stimeling; his two grandsons, Crew and Hudson, who were the light of his life; and his brother and sister-in-law, Edward and Brenda Kulikowski.
Following his diagnoses of early-onset Alzheimer's and Lewy Body Dementia, Bob chose to turn his personal challenge into a gift for others. By volunteering for numerous research studies through the University of Pennsylvania Frontotemporal Degeneration Center, he contributed to the future of neurodegenerative science. His family takes great comfort in knowing that his journey will help pave the way toward a cure.
Recognizing Bob’s deep roots in Connecticut, his daughter, Kim, will host a luncheon to celebrate his life in the Fairfield area later this year (late spring/early summer). We look forward to gathering with his longtime friends and family there; more information will follow.
A viewing will be from 5:00PM until 7:00PM on Tuesday, March 10, 2026 at the LONGWOOD FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION of MATTHEW GENEREUX, 913 East Baltimore Pike, Kennett Square. A graveside service will be at 2:00PM on Wednesday, March 11, 2026 at St. Joseph Cemetery, 1107 Glenside Road, Downingtown, PA.
