Barbara Jean Androsko

(nee McKeever) On January 13, 2024, of Williamstown, formerly of Blackwood.  Beloved wife of the late Lawrence “Vincent” Ruff and Peter Androsko.  Devoted mother of Lawrence “Buddy” Ruff (Alexandria), Steven John Ruff (Allison), Michael James Ruff (Christina), and Kimberley Amanto.  Loving grandmother of Jessica (Michelle), Charles “C.J.”, Victoria “Tori” (Michael), Skylar, Julianna, Gavin, Benjamin “Buddy”, Ryann, and Vincent “Vinny”.  Proud great-grandmother of Grayson.  Dear sister of JoAnn Bucci (Ralph).

Barbara loved getting dressed up and going to the Hilton Casino with Pete to meet friends for dinner.  She was always up for trips to Las Vegas and cocktails with her friends.

Barbara loved family time, especially Thanksgiving. She loved spending time and baking with her grandchildren. When her boys were young, she spent many hours coaching T-Ball. She used to go out with her dad to catch blue claw crabs and cook them. She spent a lot of time with her sister in Florida. She enjoyed cruising and traveling around the world with family and friends.

Some of her favorite things to do were going to craft shows and looking for homemade stuff, walking the Berlin Auction for junk, walking the boardwalk and watching sunsets, loved sitting on the beach with her feet in the water, loved spa days and massages, loved taking the Patco to the Macy’s light show with the kids, walking jeweler’s row, and she really enjoyed helping others while serving the community as an EMT. Her pet birds, Peewee and Frankie were her joy.

Barbara was a very strong willed and independent woman and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Family and friends are invited to attend her viewing Friday 9:00-11:00 AM at the Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Road, Washington Twp.  Funeral service 11:00 AM.  Entombment, St. Joseph’s Cemetery, Chews Landing.
