Andreas "Andy" Demidont, 76, of Telford, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his family, on Saturday, November 9, 2024. He was the devoted husband of Joella (Charles) Demidont.

Born in Landsberg, Germany, Andreas was the beloved son of the late Andry and Theresa (Dȗeh) Demidont. Proud of his service to his country, he was a veteran of the U.S. Navy.

Andreas valued education, earning an associate degree from Lehigh Carbon Community College, a bachelor's degree from Mansfield University, and a master's degree in education. His passion for learning and dedication to his students guided a long and impactful career in education. Andreas began at Muncy Area School District before serving at Elkland High School in Northern Tioga School District. He went on to work at East Penn School District, Oswayo Valley School District, and Souderton Area High School, where he served as High School Principal. He later became Superintendent of Rockwood School District, retiring after years of leadership, and continued his work as Assistant Superintendent for the Burlington, NJ School of Special Services.

In his personal time, Andreas was the consummate coach and mentor. A dedicated leader on and off the court, he poured his heart into coaching and took great pride in shaping not only skilled athletes but also thoughtful, resilient young people. His gift for teaching extended well beyond the classroom, as he guided players and students alike with patience, encouragement, and a belief in their potential. His devotion to mentorship and to cheering on his beloved Fighting Irish of Notre Dame brought him lifelong friendships and a lasting legacy in the lives of those he inspired.

He is survived by his wife, Joella, and his children: A.C. of Norwalk, CT; Andrea Farina and her husband, Christopher, of Souderton, PA; and Arica Slope and her husband, Steve, of Somerset, PA. His grandchildren, Tegan, Avery, and Mike, will miss him dearly, as will his siblings: John Demidont and wife, Cleo, of Center Valley, PA; Heidi Skrapits and husband, Stevie, of Northampton, PA; Sandy Tognoli and husband, Joe, of Allentown, PA; and Suzanne Demidont of Hellertown, PA. Many nieces and nephews will also remember him fondly.

A Memorial Mass will be celebrated on November 16, 2024, at 11 AM at St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church, 1601 Derstine Road, Hatfield, PA, with a visitation scheduled from 10-11 AM before the service. Interment will be private.
