Mary Jane Koziy


Mary Jane Koziy, known as “Jane” to many and “Nana” to some, passed away peacefully on Jan. 9, 2024, at the age of 83.

Nana had a strong Irish heritage. She and her husband raised three daughters, twins Christina Costa and Michelle Bjorkman, and 13 months later, Elizabeth Anne Koziy.

Nana dedicated her life to her family. Always instilling values, morals, honesty, and integrity. Her quick sense of humor and wit were exuberant.

Nana was an avid sports enthusiast dedicated to watching UConn women’s basketball, the Boston Red Sox, and the Boston Celtics. She enjoyed traveling to Ireland, California, Maine, Cape Cod, and any place to get a New England lobster roll.

Nana is survived by her husband, David B. Koziy, of 60 years; her granddaughter, Brooke Elizabeth Costa; and many nieces and nephews

.A Celebration of Life will be planned for the spring of 2024. Jane will be deeply missed, but her spirit and humor will stay with us forever.

May the sun shine warm upon your face;

the rains fall soft upon your fields

and until we meet again,

May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
