John Bilaski Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Pagano Funeral Home on May 30, 2024.
John M. Bilaski, age 81, of Aston, PA, passed away on May 28, 2024, at Riddle Memorial Hospital. Born to John and Dorothy (Wayland) Bilaski in Darby, PA. John resided in Aston for 31 years, having previously lived in Brookhaven.
In his youth, John worked as a welder at the Navy Yard and Sun Ship. He later worked as a sheet metal assembler at Boeing for over 35 years, retiring in 2013 to focus on his wife and family. Throughout his life, he was an avid outdoorsman like his father before him. He enjoyed hunting, shooting, karate, boxing, and most of all caring for and driving his pickup trucks. He dedicated much of his time to the Delaware County Field and Stream Association, where he served as a range officer and to perfect his skills as a marksman. John was a lifetime member of the NRA and the National Hot Rod Association. In his later years, he truly enjoyed spending time with his wife and family-mentoring and playing with his grandchildren became a favorite pastime.
In addition to his parents, John was preceded in death by his two sisters, Dorothy Laloup and Carol Davis. He is survived by his loving wife, Marie (Nemchik) Bilaski; his son, John Bilaski; his daughter, Jennifer Lehr (Michael Lehr Sr); and his grandchildren, Lexi, Michael, Mikayla, Ryan, and Mason.
Relatives and friends are invited to a visitation on Wednesday, June 5th, from 10:00-11:00 AM at Pagano Funeral Home, 3711 Foulk Rd, Garnet Valley, PA, followed by a Funeral Liturgy at 11:00 AM. Interment will be private at a later date. Donations in John's memory may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (). Online condolences may be made by visiting www.paganofuneralhome.com

Marie-we are so sad for your loss. A fun memory of you and John I will always remember was last summer, when we flagged down the Mr. Softee truck and all ate ice cream cones while we talked on the sidewalk. Like kids again

My deepest sympathy. I will miss chatting with John outside and his joke telling when he was working on his truck. Nina Patterson
