It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of John A. Demetrius (Wayne, New Jersey), who passed away on October 30, 2023, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of John A. Demetrius to show support.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, James Demetrius and Anna Demetrius; his wife Millena Rapuano; his grandson Gregory; his pets, Max, Wally, Gizmo, Bailey, Jeffrey, Spencer, Princess and Bandit; his children, Gerard Demetrius (Christine) of Ledgewood, NJ, Gineen Serafin (Bill) of Wayne, NJ and Gregory Demetrius (Johanna) of Wayne; and his grandchildren, Amara, Michael, Alexa, Jake and Zack.

Being a generous man himself, he donated one half of that $100 gift to help support Danny Thomas' efforts to establish St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, This was a testament to his philanthropic spirit but it was just the start as John continued to support this worthy cause for the rest of his life.

Francesca Molanphy wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Mickey, I can’t tell you how stunned I was when I looked you up on line, to see that your John had passed away a couple of months ago. I thought there was something wrong when I didn’t receive a Christmas card. I called your number and was told that it was disconnected, which is why I looked you up on line and discovered the sad news. I am so sorry to hear of John’s passing, he was a good man. My heart goes out to you as you grieve him. I send you my love, Fran Molanphy”
