Robert Bielek SMC MANAGEMENT CO. Office Hours: Mon - Fri 9-5 to life. Fr. Bielek died on August 14th at St. John’s Westshore Hospital after suffering another heart attack. His funeral was held on August 20th at Saints Peter and Paul Church in Garfield Hts., and he was buried at Holy Cross Cemetery. After he retired, Fr. Bielek spent the cold months in Florida and the warm months at Sts. Peter and Paul, helping with the Sunday liturgies as he was able. Sts. Peter and Paul had been the church to which he was assigned after his ordination in 1974, and many priests feel a special attachment to their first parish. Fr. Bielek was already a pastor at Nativity of the Blessed Mary Church in Lorain when he accepted the pastorate of St. Leo’s. He was attracted to the parish because, unlike Nativity, it had an elementary school. Fr. Bielek’s only other assignment in the Diocese was at St. Bernadette Church in Westlake. During Fr. Bielek’s tenure at St. Leo’s the parish celebrated its fiftieth anniversary (in 1998). Hoping to secure the parish’s finan- cial stability and tend to needed building maintenance, he initiated a capital-raising campaign called “Making Our Future”. Fr. Bielek may have been at his best in the classroom, however. During many of the years of his pastorate, the parish offered adult education classes on a variety of subjects, and the staff took turns giving the presentations. It was clear that Fr. Bielek enjoyed the teach- ing sessions assigned to him. The Old Brooklyn News staff extends its sympathies to Fr. Bielek’s three brothers and sisters-in-law, other family members, his fel- www.riversidecemeterycleveland.org low priests and his friends from St. Leo’s.
