John Drewes Obituary
John Drewes was a very funny and proudly goofy man who never took life too seriously - except when it came to cars, food, and classic rock. A dedicated member of the Knights of Columbus, he balanced service with sarcasm and a well-timed joke.
As the owner of STF Computer Services, he fixed computers with skill and patience (and occasional disbelief at user error). When not working, he could be found admiring cars, watching airplanes like it was a competitive sport, cooking something delicious, or enthusiastically eating it afterward-usually with classic rock playing loud enough to be appreciated properly.
He is survived by his wife, Suzanne Drewes, and his two daughters, Victoria "Tori" Drewes and Alexandria "Ally" Drewes, who knew him as a loving husband and dad with an unmatched sense of humor.
Private arrangements were entrusted to Whitham-Kanapaux Funeral Home, 20 Keller Ave, Rockaway, NJ 07866. Condolences may be sent to: RockawayFuneral.com
