Obituary

Fred P. McCaffrey, 81, of Lancaster, PA passed away in the comfort of his home on Tuesday, October 27, 2015. He was the husband of the late Theresa (Fitzsimmons) McCaffrey who passed away in 2005. Born in Newark, NJ he was the son of the late John and Winifred Mary (Armstrong) McCaffrey. Fred worked in the marketing department of RCA for 40 years until his retirement. He proudly served in the US Army. Fred was a faithful member of St. Leo the Great Roman Catholic Church. He enjoyed cooking, reading, politics, sports and golfing on Mondays at local courses with a group of friends. Most of all he enjoyed spending time with family and friends. A perfect day would include golf in the morning, attending one of the grand kids' events later in the day, and followed by a family gathering with enough food to feed an army. He was a devoted husband to his late wife whom he met on a blind date on October 24, 1958 and married on the same date one year later. He is survived by his children Robert McCaffrey and wife Shelby of Seattle, WA, William McCaffrey and wife Ellen of Landisville, PA, Bernard McCaffrey of Maytown, PA, Maureen wife of Eckhard Schulz of Columbia, PA, Fred P. McCaffrey, Jr. and wife Margaret of Seattle, WA and Dennis McCaffrey of Bloomsburg, PA; ten grandchildren Megan, Kaitlin, Nicole, Stephanie wife of Brett Moore, Jack, Sara, Jacob, Anna, Lauren and Lucy; sister-in-laws Sister Miriam Bernard, Sister Maria Brigita and Mary Fitzsimmons all of NJ and brother-in-laws Ricky Neuman of FL, James and Bernard Fitzsimmons both of NJ. Fred was preceded in death by a brother Eugene McCaffrey, a sister Carol Neuman and sister-in-law Florence McCaffrey. Mass of Christian Burial will be held Thursday, November 5, 2015 at 11AM from St. Leo the Great Roman Catholic Church, 2427 Marietta Ave. Lancaster, PA 17601 with Fr. Peter Hahn as celebrant.
