John “Jack” R. Andronaco, 80, passed away Thursday July 29, 2021 at Tidelands Waccamaw Community Hospital in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina. He was born on February 7, 1941 in Norwalk, Connecticut to the late Pellegrino Andronaco & Lucy Schiano Andronaco.

Jack proudly served our country in the United States Navy. Following his honorable discharge, he went on to become the purchasing manager for several companies. Jacks love for golf led him to Florida where he worked for Lemon Bay Golf Club in Englewood, FL and was a member of Capri Isles course in Venice, FL. Jack and his wife moved to Murrells Inlet where he frequented his favorite course, Blackmoor Golf Club. When Jack wasn’t on the course, he could be found cheering on the Pittsburg Steelers. Jack relished making memories with friends and above all else, loved his family with his whole heart. He will be deeply missed.
