Condolences

Condolence From: Kim Brown
Condolence: Dear Bridget & family,
I am so very sorry. I did not know of Fig's passing until today. It has been 45 years since he, Kaye & I were in We the People together. I cherish that time. Fig could always make me laugh until I cried, doubled over, trying not to have an "accident". We spent numerous weekends at Kaye's singing, dancing, & playing a "murder game" in the dark. We would spend hours practicing choreography at his housd in Maple Heights. He also gave me a fear of driving next to a semi on the highway, explaining if the semi had a blowout, I would be toast. He would always talk about the perfect girl he wanted. I would shake my head & tell him his dream girl was a fantasy. He wanted a small girl with long brown hair & beautiful big eyes. Someone full of life, fun to be around, maybe a little shy, smart, cute, spontaneous, kind, caring, loved music & dance, & a whole lot more. I would tease him that this "perfect" girl only existed in his mind. Then the future Mrs. Fig Jankowski walked into the basement of St Pat's & proved me wrong. You do exist. I ran into Fig about 10 years ago. He told me you had married & he bragged about your boys. He told me the tragedy about Kaye. Those 2 are singing & those poor souls have to deal with all of their pranks. They will be 2 angels I will definitely will find when my time comes. Again, sorry for your loss.

Condolence: Fig was one of the most imaginative and enjoyable persons in We the People where he was "the life of the party." I will always remember when he played the role of Johnny Carson in what may be called "CarFig." While we were never friends, I treasure the memories of him, and his dear sister Kaye. Both gave of themselves, and cared deeply for others! May such memories, condolences, and the comfort of the Lord bless all whom loved him!

Condolence: The world has lost a truly unique individual. Fig made an impression on everyone he met. He never failed to put a smile on my face, even when I was feeling bad. I'll never forget all of the hijinks we got up to behind the scenes on Something's Afoot! He was such a great friend and will be missed.

Condolence: Prayers go out to Fig's family. I am a mother of girls who are involved in ETC and also Woodridge schools. I remember Fig "DJ-ing" at the CVNP XC meet a few years ago and I kept joking with him about his song choices. I also will never forget the time the ETC students mobbed his front yard to sing and perform Uptown Funk for him. He was so surprised and happy to see everyone. I am so glad that my daughters were able to be a part of that!(to bring him joy at that time) That's how I want to remember Fig...singing along with a smile on his face.
