John Jack Jurechko, III

John (Jack) Jurechko, III age 84 of Burlington, NJ passed away peacefully on Monday June 5, 2023. Born in Plainfield, NJ Jack was a graduate of Pennsbury High School and the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY where he earned a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering and also his MBA. Jack was the President and Owner of Burlington Fabricators Inc of New Jersey and later worked as the Vice-President of Manufacturing for Centryco Inc., in Burlington, retiring after 28 years of service. He was very active for many years in the Rotary Club of Burlington. Jack was a man of few words but had a quick wit. He was always aware of what was going on around him and would throw in a one-liner that made you laugh. He was a quiet prankster, especially with his granddaughter Angelina. He would often be found puttering around in his garden, tending to his rose bushes, shears in one hand and a bucket in the other. Being a mechanical engineer by trade he loved to design things to find solutions to problems. He was extremely handy and detail oriented and always did things at his own methodical pace. Balderdash was his favorite word to say when he disagreed with something said to him. Jack was an avid skier until the age of 80. He enjoyed spending summers on LBI with friends and family. He was a member of the Brant Beach Yacht Club and was a competitive sailor. He would often be seen riding around on his old yellow bike. Jack was predeceased by his parents, John Jurechko, Jr. and Angeline (nee Stancik) Jurechko. He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Sue (nee Browne) Jurechko, his daughter and son in law Jenny and Anthony Greco, his granddaughter Angelina Rose, his sister in law and brother in law Leslie and Kenneth (Skip) Barker, his brother in law and sister in law Neil (Butch) and Kate Browne, his nieces Jennifer (Allen) Richardson, Kim Parsons Browne, Lisa (Charles) Paul, Nicole (Corey) Goodwin and his great niece and great nephew Abigayle and Erik.
