Andrew J. Heitzmann, 94, of Little Egg Harbor, NJ passed away at home on Tuesday June 11, 2024. Born in Jersey City, NJ, Andy proudly served our nation in the United States Army during the Korean War.

Andy’s talents included playing instruments by ear, fixing things without directions and speeding without tickets. He enjoyed bowling, fishing, going to OTB, and watching Westerns and the NY Mets. His passion for cards, jokes, donuts and coffee was paralleled by his deep love for his family.

He is survived by his loving children Dennis Heitzmann (Lidia Merena), Linda Clark (Patrick), and Brett Hetizmann (Robin), grandchildren Christopher, Danielle, Nicholas, Michelle, George and Stephanie and many great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and in-laws.
