Biography

Casimir Pavel Ziolkowski was born at Crazy Horse, S.D., up at the mountain where he gave his heart and soul.

Cas met the woman of his dreams in 1982 and it didn't take him long to ask her to spend the rest of her life with him, and he was thankful she said yes. Only a year later and they were married, on Nov. 12, 1983.

Cas took on the role of a father for David and Sonja and not too long after that, his wife Deiadra had Cheyanne, and four years later she had Taylor. Cas loved coaching softball, spending all kinds of time with his grandchildren, the Raiders, keeping the TV at the loudest it could get, and hanging out with his dog Cooper.

He spent years building his family's log home by hand. It speaks volumes of the man he was. He put so much work, effort and love into it every day. He was doing it for his family, not himself, and as was said, it spoke of his heart. He would've given the shoes off his feet, and although he would've liked to keep the cigarettes in the pocket in his shirt, he would've given the shirt off his back and never ask for anything.

On March 12, 2022, Cas' broken heart said goodbye to this world. He was 68.

He is survived by his wife, Deiadra; daughters, Cheyanne (Ryan) Bailey and Taylor (Nolan Saufley) Ziolkowski; stepchildren, David Larson and Sonja Bakonyi; and grandchildren, Ryder, River and Relic Bailey.
