Obituary of Jonathan J. Wessell

Jonathan J. Wessell, age 64, of Bridgeport, PA passed away peacefully on Sunday, May 23, 2021 at his home after a long, hard fought battle with cancer. 

He was born in Norristown, PA on November 1, 1956.  Jon lived most of his life in Conshohocken before moving to Bridgeport in 2005.  

Jon was a dedicated, hardworking man. He owned and operated Wessell Plumbing for over 25 years. His customers and the people he worked with became his very good friends. Jon had a big personality, great sense of humor, and a very kind heart. He would help anyone at any time without question.  He enjoyed spending time at his beach house at Buttonwood Beach, MD, fishing, and riding his wave runner. Jon loved riding motorcycles and listening to classic rock music.  Most of all, he cherished time with his friends, family, and loved ones, especially his grandsons. 

Jon was preceded in death by his father, Harry Wessell; mother, Grace  T. (Costello) McCracken; and his step father, Jack McCracken.

He is survived by his wife of 41 years, Terri (Knaecke) Wessell of Bridgeport; daughter, Jen (& Andrew) Brady of Havertown; and two grandsons, Jack and Connor
