John M. Sosnowski

Poland - John M. Sosnowski, 74, passed away peacefully with his family by his side on April 6, 2023.

John was born June 18, 1948 in Youngstown. He graduated from Struthers High School in 1966 and continued on to attend Penn State Jr. College.

John served in the Army Reserves and also worked at Packard Electric for 38 years, retiring in 2007.

He was a talented carpenter, enjoyed building model cars, had a love for fishing and always looked forward to his annual fishing trips. He was an avid sports fan with a passion for all Cleveland teams and the Ohio State Buckeyes. He was also an active member of the St. Nicholas Church.

John leaves to forever cherish his memory, his beloved daughter, Keight Sosnowski of Youngstown. She was the light of his life and he was always so proud of her. He also leaves behind two sisters, Karen Bundy of McKinney, TX, and Joanie Smith (Kim - who he was proud to call his “brother”) of Canfield; nieces, Audrey Niebes (Kevin), Jessica Smith (Nik Skokowski) and Megan Coe (Clayton); and nephew, Jason Bundy (Eileen).

He was preceded in death by his parents, John & Ann Sosnowski, and his infant son, Scott.

He was a kindhearted soul, a genuine person, and we all wish to hear just one more of his stories.  He did everything in his life with great compassion for his family and family of friends. John will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
