John Arrowsmith Obituary

On July 15, 2025, John Arrowsmith passed away peacefully. John was born on 12/3/1944 in Wales, United Kingdom. He resided in Northop Hall, Wales and Widnes, England until he emigrated with his family to Maryland in 1982. He spent his career as an electrical engineer until his retirement 10 years ago.

Survived by his beloved wife Anne Arrowsmith of 54 years. Loving father of Ian Arrowsmith (Colleen), Theresa Arrowsmith Lamantia (Paul), and Josephine Arrowsmith. Devoted grandfather of Antonio Martinez III, Colin Kispert, Isabella Kispert and Jude Arrowsmith. Also survived by his sisters June Roberts and Margaret Broadbent and a son-in-law Jason Kispert. Predeceased by his daughter Claire Arrowsmith Kispert.

John enjoyed a life of fishing, hunting, spending time with family and was the world's biggest Man United football fan - rarely seen without his Man U hat.

A funeral service will take place on Saturday July 26 at the Catholic Community of St. Francis Xavier in Hunt Valley, Md at 10 AM.
