William McGoey Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Bradley Funeral Home - Marlton on Feb. 14, 2024.
William C. (Bill) McGoey, a longtime resident of Marlton, NJ passed peacefully into Eternal Glory at his home on February 13, 2024. He was 85 years old. He leaves behind a legacy of resilience and accomplishment as a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend that will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
He is survived by Delia (Diaz), his beloved wife of 63 years. His children William E. McGoey (Susan) and Kristen Andracki. Proud grandfather of William A. McGoey, Morgan McGoey, Shaye McGoey, Chad Andracki, Alexandra Andracki and his sister Barbara Kruse.
Predeceased in life by his parents William R. and Dorothy (Abend) McGoey, his sister Mary Garvey, his brother Richard McGoey and his son-in-law William Andracki.
Born in Kingston, PA to humble beginnings, Bill was a great student athlete who starred in Football and Wrestling at Kingston High School. He was awarded a life-changing scholarship to play football at Rutgers University, where he not only excelled on the field but also earned a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration. He embarked on a successful 5-decade corporate career in sales and marketing that spanned diverse industries, from consumer products to banking, culminating in the dynamic world of technology. Bill worked on innovative banking solutions for Citibank/Citigroup that culminated in the Automated Teller Machine (ATM). He was President of major divisions within International Companies such as Standard and Poor's and McGrall-Hill. He was involved in some of the early few Startup tech companies located on the East Coast and retired as an International Account Manager at Digital Equipment Corp. His innate business acumen and dedication earned him respect and admiration from colleagues and clients alike.
Together with his soulmate Delia, they traveled the world and experienced many different wonders and experiences together. A true sports enthusiast, he initiated a passion for the Philadelphia Sports teams that became a cherished tradition shared with his family. He also had an insatiable passion for golf that he enjoyed throughout his life, creating strong friendships that became among his most fond memories. But his greatest devotion of all was the time he spent with his family. As a father coaching, refereeing and umpiring in the Marlton Rec Council, and later as a grandfather attending every one of his grandchildren's games, recitals and school activities. His presence was a source of comfort and encouragement, leaving an indelible mark on each member of his family.
Relatives and friends are invited to the viewing on Wednesday February 21st from 6:00-8:00 PM at the Bradley Funeral Home, Rt. 73 & Evesham Rd., Marlton, NJ and Thursday February 22nd from 10:00- 10:45 AM at St. Joan of Arc Church, 100 Willow Bend Rd., Marlton, NJ.
