Jane Marie Fanok, 81, of Macungie, died Nov. 6, 2023, at home. She was the wife of the late Andrew Fanok who died in 2003. Born in Macungie, she was the daughter of Sophie Gruskowski Terfinko and the late Metro Terfinko.
She enjoyed gardening, oil painting and nature.
She was in her glory while splitting firewood with her gas-powered log splitter, cutting pieces half as big as normal, but keeping her extra warm all winter. She would accept some help splitting wood but never with stacking it. She also decided at 70 years old that it was a good time to purchase and use a zero-turn mower.
She is survived by her mother; daughters, Laurie and her husband, Michael Baker, Susan E.; brother, Terry Terfinko; grandson, Andrew Baker; two great-grandchildren.
Funeral services will be held 1:30 p.m. Nov. 15 at the Bachman, Kulik & Reinsmith Funeral Home, 225 Elm St., Emmaus. A visitation will be held 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Nov. 15 in the funeral home.
