John A. Patrowicz, 72, of Manchester, NJ passed away peacefully on June 2, 2021. He was the son of late John and Adeline Patrowicz. He was born in Philadelphia, PA on May 25, 1949. He attended Marie Katzenbach School for the Deaf and had lived in Toms River, NJ for most of his years. He was employed at the Post Office for 40 years before he retired in 2014. In his leisure time, he enjoyed camping, going to beaches, riding boats and was an avid Texas Hold’em player. Most of all, he loved being home with his family and spending time working around the house. John leaves Betty, his lovely wife of 44 years and his son Anthony (Christina) and holds a special place in his heart for his only granddaughter, Antonia.
At John’s request there will be no funeral or memorial service. Instead he asked that when loved ones and friends go to beaches to breathe in saltwater air and think of him. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to American Thyroid Cancer.
