John Fabian, 73, of Westfield Township, passed away Wednesday, Oct 29th 2025. John was born on October 31st, 1951, in Spangler, Pennsylvania, to John and Mary (Suenkonis) Fabian. He graduated from Max S. Hayes High School in 1969.

John enjoyed traveling on his motorcycles, tinkering with just about anything and many outdoor recreations. He previously worked at Domino Sugar, Weldon Tool and served in the United States Army from 1971-1974.

John loved his family and enjoyed spending time with them. He solved many folks' challenges and figured out those tough problems that most folks walked away from. He will be remembered for his never say no attitude and the smiles he would create on his grandchildren's faces.

John is survived by his children Adam (Amy) Fabian, Audrey (Jacob) Harris, Amie Katz and Jonathan (Tonya) Katz; his sisters Doris Fabian, Cynthia Adcock, Gloria Kramer, and Rosemary Fabian; grandchildren Lily, Isla, Deacon, Charlotte, Bailey and D’nyelle (Alex) Nall; three great-grandchildren Briar, Asher and Elliot; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, John M., and Mary Fabian, and his beloved wife, Anita, of 38 years.

The family will be hosting a visitation at Roberts Funeral Home in Seville on Monday, November 3, 2025 from 6 to 8 pm.

In remembrance of John’s life, the family asks that any charitable donations be made to The Leukemia And Lymphoma Society, in memory of his late wife Anita.
