John J. (Jack) Biroscak, Jr. age 71 years, of Erie, PA, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, April 20, 2024.

He was born in Erie, PA on September 7, 1952, a son of the late John and Genevieve (Androsky) Biroscak.

John attended Blessed Sacrament elementary school, where he was an altar boy. He was a graduate of Tech Memorial High School, class of 1970. He served in the United States National Guard and later became a lifetime member of the American Legion. 

John was employed at the American Sterilizer Company, later named Steris Corporation. He retired after 40 years as a millwright and was a master electrician.  Also, since 1977, he was one of the founding members of the family business, Biroscak Printing.

John will most be remembered as a “Jack of ALL TRADES”.  He could always be depended upon to finish the job, Mr. Fixit by nature on all projects, and extremely handy with his tools.

John was a “Car Guy” he enjoyed his Corvette, myriad of Camaros, and the thrill of the ride on his Harley Davidson motorcycle. He also enjoyed his collection of American Flyer trains.

John was a designated organ donor which will benefit the lives of others. 

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by an infant sister Irene Biroscak, and brother, William Biroscak, and William’s wife Deborah Biroscak and their son, Jeffrey Biroscak, who was Jack’s Godson. 

He leaves behind to cherish his memory his loving wife of 47 years, Pam (Amond) Biroscak, two sisters, Barbara Biroscak, Susan (Biroscak) Palermo and her husband Richard, and one brother, Bernard Biroscak and his wife Cheryl (Priester), his brother-in law, Jay Amond, and his wife, Lisa, of Hinsdale, IL; and four nieces:  Nicole Palermo, Elizabeth Palermo, Leah Biroscak, and Rachel Biroscak, all of Erie. 

Though he may be gone his spirit will live on in our hearts forever. 

Friends may call at the Burton Quinn Scott Cremation and Funeral Services, Downtown, 602 West 10th St., Erie, PA on Sunday, April 28, 2024, from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm and are invited to attend a Funeral Mass at St. Andrew Catholic Church 1116 West 7th St. Erie, PA, on Monday, April 29, 2024 at 10:00 am.
