A Celebration of Life for Andrew Piecka

September 22, 2025

November 1, 2025

We are incredibly sad to report the passing of Andrew Piecka.

 Andrew and his wife Barbara were vital members of Emmanuel where they served on various church committees and regularly as ushers.


 He was a devoted husband to Barbara and father to son Tad and daughter-in-law Meghan.

 A Celebration of Life will take place here at Emmanuel on November 1, 11:00 a.m. followed by a reception.
 

 Barbara has asked that you keep condolences to texts or e-mails. You can contact me at amac2go@aol.com if you would like more details.


A graduate of MIT, he designed and implemented computer programs for major companies. While at MIT he also displayed his talents on the stage, He recently shared this photo of himself in a classic Moliere farce. ELATE members were blessed to have benefited from both talents.


One of Andrew’s favorite endeavors was putting up the one-man show Give ‘em Hell Harry. It received rave reviews and remains a fan favorite.


Andrew directed several staged readings, acted on the ELATE stage as well as movies and TV. He contributed on set workdays and was an active ELATE board member. Check out the ELATE Facebook page to see more photos of his work through the years. He was loved and admired and will be greatly missed.
