It is with heavy hearts and profound sorrow that we announce the passing of John C. Bochynski, a beloved father, brother, and friend, who left us on November 12, 2025, at the age of 66 in his cherished hometown of Buffalo.
John was known for his vibrant personality, characterized by his ability to connect with everyone he met. His social nature, combined with an extraordinary talent for storytelling, made him a cherished presence at gatherings and family events. An organized and realistic thinker, John approached life with a blend of intelligence and humor that endeared him to all who were fortunate enough to know him. Whether he was grilling outdoors or passionately watching football, he created lasting memories that will be fondly remembered by his family and friends.
John will forever be remembered by his surviving daughters, Amber and Kristine Bochynski, who carry with them the legacy of their father’s kindness and humor. John is now reunited with his beloved family who have passed before him, including his parents, Paul and Rita Bochynski, as well as his sister Paulette and his brother Thomas. While John is deeply missed, his memory will live on through the stories shared and the laughter that still echoes in the hearts of those he touched.
Family and friends are invited to join in celebrating the life of John. A wake will be held Monday, November 17th from 3:00 to 7:00 PM at New Comer Funeral Home, located at 5090 Transit Rd., Depew, NY 14043.
