Obituary of John F. Chambers

John Francis Chambers, Sr. of Aston, PA passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on December 29th, 2017 after a long illness. He was 82 years old. His friends and family called him "Jack" and he was well known for his friendliness, sense of humor, and wanting to make all those he met laugh at least once during each conversation.

He graduated from Girard College in Philadelphia and married his teenage sweetheart Constance "Connie" Wiechecki at St. Hedwigs Roman Catholic Church in Chester, PA. Jack and Connie were married for 62 years and had three children. Jack served in the Korean Conflict in the Navy, was a printer, and later owned several small businesses. Throughout his retirement Jack enjoyed history, electronics and collecting stamps, postcards and jokes.
