Obituary of Edwin Michel Krejci

Edwin Michel Krejci passed on February 18, 2023. He was born March 30, 1930 and was a proud member of the United States Air Force serving 30 years as a pilot. He enjoyed all of the assigned stations in and out of country and all of the people he met along the way. Being born and raised on a farm in Wisconsin led him to become a Green Bay Packers fan.

Ed is remembered for his membership in Dentsville Lodge as a Master Mason.  He loved spending time with his lodge brothers and helped promote awareness of freemasonry in his town and anywhere he traveled.  After dutifully serving his country, Edwin and Roma Krejci decided to buy an RV and travel across the US countryside. For over 20 years, they went to places they wanted to go, not where the government wanted them to go, before settling down again. Their move to and settling in Texas converted him to a Dallas Cowboys fan. 

Edwin is survived by his loving daughter, Elizabeth (Liz) Krejci, Hopkins, SC and predeceased by his dedicated wife of 50 years, Roma P Krejci, and siblings, William ‘Bill’  Krejci and Diane K. Tweedy.

Edwin Krejci was a wonderful example of a Mason, a husband, a father, and a friend. He always had time for others and was the first to lend a hand to someone in need. 

A military funeral will take place on March 21, 2023 at 2:00 pm at Fort Jackson National Cemetery, 4170 Percival Road, Columbia, SC and all are welcome to attend.
