Obituary of Andrew Molitoris

Andrew "Moe" Molitoris of Ledgewood joined his beloved grandson Patrick Walsh Jr., his cherished son-in-law Pat Walsh Sr. and his Lord on February 8, 2008. He passed from his earthly life in the presence of his loved ones at Compassionate Care Hospice at St. Clare's, Dover. He was 81. Born in Garfield, he lived in Roxbury Twp. for over 50 years. He has resided in the Ledgewood section of the Township for the last 7 years. He was a self-employed carpenter. A charter member of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Succasunna, he served in the United States Navy as a Tin Can Sailor in the Pacific during World War II. Moe will be remembered by those who loved him for his sense of humor and his war stories, but most of all for the love he had for his family. Predeceased by his mother Mary and his father John, he is survived by his wife of 58 years Lillian (nee: Stumpp) who tenderly cared for him and whom he adored. He is also survived by his loving daughters Leslie Walsh of Landing, Lori Baker and her husband Mark of Succasunna and Lee Blackburn and her husband Bill of Rockton IL. His surviving grandchildren Alison, Michael, Kevin, Drew, Maggie and Chris brought him much joy and pride. He is also survived by his sister Helen Schiavone of Rochelle Park, several nieces and a nephew George.
