William Kostok Obituary

William Kostok, Sr.

Upper Deerfield Twp. - Graveside interment services for William "Bill" M. Kostok Sr., 68, of Upper Deerfield Township will be held at Laurel Lawn Cemetery, 170 Old Deerfield Pike in Upper Deerfield Township on Saturday morning May 8th at 11 o'clock.

The service will mark the one-year anniversary of Bill's death. He passed away on Friday evening May 8, 2020 at Inspira Medical Center in Vineland following a courageous battle against COVID-19.

The husband of Beth Kostok (nee Blandino), he was born in Bridgeton and was the son of Dorothy Bish Kostok of Bridgeton and the late William Kostok.

He worked for over 41 years for Cumberland County and served as the supervising engineering aide for the county.

Bill had many hobbies. For many years, he loved hunting with the Hickory Gunning Club as well as golfing with the 5th Ward Club's golf league in Centerton Golf Club. In his free time he also enjoyed fishing and having jam sessions with friends where he played the keyboard. He was also a "diehard" Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies fan. One of Bill's favorite things to do was to visit Myrtle Beach while on vacation with his wife and granddaughter.

He was a great guy with a huge heart who loved everyone he met. He will be missed by all those who knew him.

In addition to his wife of 20 years and his mother, he is survived by his twin children, Jamie Kostok of Vineland and William "Mike" Kostok Jr. of Egg Harbor Twp., a granddaughter with whom he had a deep bond like no other, Alana Kostok, one brother, Bob Kostok and his wife Barbie, nephews David, Steve and Michael, a large extended family and two furry friends, a dog, Holly and a cat, Bullet.

All are welcome to attend and the interment of Bill's cremated remains will follow.
