SZYMANIK
Mark Jeffrey Szymanik, 69, passed away on April 30, 2025, in Sicklerville, New Jersey.
Mark was the son of Frances Ronczka Szymanik Wilson and Henry Szymanik, both of whom preceded him in death. He is also preceded in death by his partner, Karen Petherbridge. He is remembered with love by his two children, Carly Garofolo and Mark Szymanik (Jen), who brought him great pride and joy; his four grandchildren: Kayden, Wesley, Lucas, and Emma who were a cherished part of his life and a great source of happiness. Marks constant companion was his dog, Otis, who was by his side every hour of every day.
He also shared a close bond with his siblings, Barbara Stelluto, (Joseph) John Szymanik (Aggie) and stepsister Danya Pompeo (Al). Their connection provided strength and support throughout the years. Mark is also survived by his former spouse, Cheryl Szymanik, who he shared two wonderful children with.
In 1996, Mark co-founded a Philadelphia-based electronics recycling company called Elemental, Inc, where he acted as Vice President until his retirement in 2024.
Marks greatest joy was his family including “the dogs.” He loved fishing, grilling, family days with the kids/grandkids, taking the boat out on the water and setting the whole gang up for crabbing down the shore. He had many fond memories (and pictures) of his “fishing days.”
A Memorial Service will be held on May 17, 2025 from 9:30-11:30 at Wackerman Funeral Home, 8060 Verree Road Philadelphia, PA.
May his memory bring comfort to those who knew him.

Rose was born in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia on November 8, 1916 to Ella and John, the youngest of 11 children. There she met her husband, Joseph, whom she married in 1942. Rose liked to stay close to home and decided she had enough travel after a weekend honeymooning in New York. She later moved to a house just a few blocks from her childhood home, where she raised her family and lived most of her adult life. For more than 25 years, Rose worked at the nearby Rose Mills as a fabric "twister," explaining her job was not associated with the famous Chubby Checker dance. Rose was known by her loved ones for her patience, warmth, and generosity. Rose always listened without judgement and spoke without complaints. Kids never left visits to Grandmom/Aunt Rose without a few dollars for their visit. She loved being in the company of her family and picked up traveling again when her grandchildren were born in Arizona and Maryland. Rose enjoyed good health into her final years and could touch her toes past the age of 100. She said she never took a nap until she was 90. She credited her good health and long life to her daily cup of tea and plate of vegetables, usually leaving out the times she had cake for breakfast.
Rose was predeceased by her parents, her husband and ten siblings. She is survived by her beloved three children, Dolores Mount (James), Charles, and Rosemary; five grandchildren, Stacey Devlin, Kevin Mount (Stephanie), Kristopher Mount (Ashleigh), Megan Devlin, and Joseph Devlin (Hannah); six great-grandchildren, Ava, Viviana, Mason, Madison, and Charlotte Mount, and Kieran Devlin; and countless nieces and nephews.
