Andrew J. Janosko

On July 7, 2022, of Flanders.  Age 64. Beloved husband of Joan (nee Breen).  Devoted father of Andrew Janosko (Lauren), Carolyn Lehman (Joshua), Emily Mucci (Joe), Kevin M. Rash (Kristen) and Brittany Rash (Nick Krohne).  Loving grandfather of Bridget, Lizzie, Caleb, Jacob, Michael, and Charlotte. Andrew and Lauren Janosko are expecting Baby Janosko, Andy’s 7th grandchild this coming December 2022.  Dear brother of Beverly Cowperthwaite, Bruce Janosko, Andrea Driscoll, Elizabeth Pone, and Denise Janosko.  Also survived by countless wonderful loving friends and colleagues/co-workers.

Andy is survived by his beloved wife, Joanie, whom he lovingly referred to as his “Cupcake”. They shared a once in a lifetime love story and a beautiful life together with their children and grandchildren. He was an honest, loyal, faithful man with enormous integrity who was completely devoted to his family. Everyone else’s needs came before his no matter what. It gave him great joy to make others happy and feel safe. He was truly our patriarch and our fiercely strong protector. He had an immense ability to forgive and to always see the very best in people.

He enjoyed being outside on the bike trails or boardwalk with his wife Joanie and fishing with his children and grandchildren. He loved to grill in all kinds of weather even if it required a winter coat or an umbrella. His garage organization was impeccable, and he worked tirelessly to paint or fix whatever was needed. His memory was photographic, and he loved telling stories about all his family and the many Dad jokes handed down from his father Andy that he kept in his “Dad-a-base”. Andy was extremely driven and full of ambition and intelligence. He enjoyed with great passion an accomplished career as a Dedicated Laboratory Director for over 30 years with expertise in all aspects of the food and beverage industry and was revered by his colleagues. A true man of science in his career, he is also remembered as being effortlessly cool riding his Harley Davidson. He was an avid sports enthusiast both in supporting all Philadelphia teams as well as coaching all his children in various sports. His quick wit, smile, and laughter were infectious, and his warm spirit will live on through his wife, children, and grandchildren.

Family and friends are invited to attend his viewing Friday 8:15- 10:15 AM at the Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Road, Washington Twp.  Mass of Christian Burial 11:15 AM, Our Lady of Hope Parish/ St. Agnes Church, 701 Little Gloucester Rd, Blackwood.  Entombment All Saints Cemetery, Newfield.
