Obituary of John T. Krzyzkowski

John T. Krzyzkowski, 77 of Garnet Valley, PA passed away peacefully on March 21, 2025 at home. Born to Antoinette and Frank Krzyzkowski on May 1, 1947, he was raised and schooled in South River, N.J. Following high school graduation he enlisted in the Air Force and served honorably in Viet Nam. In 1971 he married Barbara Wladyka and they settled in East Brunswick. John worked as a lab analyst for Bristol Myers Squibb for 43 years retiring in 2007.

He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Barbara M. Wladyka Krzyzkowski, his two devoted sons, Michael and Gregory (Tiffany), his adored grandchildren, Rian, Kayla, and Luke and his beloved brother, Bob. He leaves behind many broken hearts.

While family always mattered most, he also loved jelly donuts, gardening, traveling worldwide, and almost any sport. He was a devoted and die-hard Giants and Mets fan. He coached Little League baseball and spent many years as a high school white hat football official.

When Frank Sinatra crooned "I'll do it my way", John said " Yes, sir," and that is precisely how he lived his life.

A visitation will be held on Wednesday, March 26th, from 12:00-1:00PM at the Pagano Funeral Home, 3711 Foulk Rd., Garnet Valley, PA, followed by a Funeral Liturgy at 1:00PM.

The family would like to thank Dr. Keith Pratz and his group at the University of Penn Hospital for all their care, Penn Home Hospice, and are particularly grateful for his infusion nurse, Susan Robb. Special and eternal gratitude is reserved for all blood and platelet donors.

Instead of flowers, please donate blood or platelets if you are able or donate to the charity of your choice.
