Mr Stawinoga
Released: 29 October 2007
Everyone is very saddened to hear of the death of Josef Stawinoga. He was part and parcel of life in the city for decades and people took him to their hearts. He was a true character and Wolverhampton won't be quite the same without him.
The council was able to support Mr Stawinoga to live the lifestyle he chose and we provided him with twice-daily meals on wheels, replaced his tent when necessary and generally kept an eye on his well-being.
We will have to wait and see if any next of kin or friends come forward and say they will organise the funeral, but if nobody does then the council will make the necessary arrangements.
