Andrew McNinch, of Willingboro, passed away on August 4, 2025, at the age of 62. Born on May 25, 1963, to the late Ernest and Juana McNinch, Andrew's journey through life was marked by dedication to his family, a commitment to service, and a passion for the simple joys that make life worth living.

Andrew's early years were shared with his parents and his sister Gina, who predeceased him. The bonds of family were further strengthened when he met and married his beloved wife, Arlene, with whom he shared over 18 years of love, laughter, and mutual support. Together, they raised two wonderful sons, Andrew II and Jonathan, who were the pride and joy of Andrew's life.

His special Aunt Helena, Uncle Paul, and Uncle Bernie along with his many friends, will fondly remember Andrew's warmth and the way he made each person feel valued and important. His beloved dog, El Chapo, was a constant companion and source of joy.

He retired as a Maintenance Technician in Philadelphia after many years of dedicated service. His commitment to his community was evident through his involvement with the Corpus Christi Knights of Columbus and his role as a member of the Willingboro Fire Police. Andrew also served his neighborhood as a crossing guard, ensuring the safety of countless children and parents with his ever-present smile and kind words.

Andrew's interests were a reflection of his personality. He was an avid fan of Star Trek and his love for NASCAR was equally passionate, as he enjoyed the thrill of the race and the sense of community among fellow fans.

Funeral services will be announced soon. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made in his memory to the Willingboro Volunteer Fire Company, 398 Charleston Road, Willingboro, NJ 08046.
