SOUTH BEND - Timothy J. Hojnacki, 51, formerly of South Bend, passed away on Monday, August 25, 2008, in Las Vegas, NV. Tim was born on December 16, 1956, in South Bend to the late Joseph and Eugenia (Stoklosa) Hojnacki.

Tim was a graduate of Washington High School.

After graduation, he worked in his family's business, where he became the 3rd generation owner of the Home Made Sausage Shop, using recipes his grandfather brought back from Poland. He also spent some time as a truck driver and worked for the United States Postal Service before settling in Las Vegas. Tim was so proud of his Polish heritage, he traveled to Poland and visited with friends and relatives, and also invited them back to the US to see our beautiful country. He kept in touch with many friends, pen pals, and relatives by phone and letters, and he will always be remembered for his special birthday cards that always said "Sto Lat" which is the Polish birthday song, that means I hope you live a 100 years. He will be missed by all who knew him.
