Cian Joseph McAuliffe died suddenly on Friday, November 4, 2022. He is survived by his parents, Linda Constantine of Levittown, William B. McAuliffe and his wife Linda Buchanan of Lansdale; a brother, John, a sister, Erin (Frank Barreto), nephews, Jeremy, Franky, Jalen and Davien, nieces, Niyah and Annaliese, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Born July 27, 1977, he was raised in Ambler before moving to Eagleville and graduating from Methacton High School in 1996. From there, he moved to Norristown, Philadelphia, Willow Grove, and eventually settled in Bristol, but his heart always remained in his hometown of Ambler. He found his calling, becoming a skilled tradesman in marble and granite, and took great pride in his craft.

He absolutely loved nature. And while on his own ‘mission to save the planet’, he was quick to call you out for any eco-unfriendly thing you did, to the point of even pulling cans and bottles out of your trash to take them home and recycle them himself. He was convinced he could singlehandedly preserve the planet, and given the time, he probably would have.

A true Irishman, he loved socializing over an ice-cold beer with family and friends, especially whenever the Eagles or Phillies were playing. His loud and infectious personality will be greatly missed.

Services will be private, however everyone who knew and loved him is invited to attend a public celebration of his life on Saturday, morning, November 19, 2022 at the Simcox-McIlvaine Funeral Home, 532 E. Main St, Lansdale, PA 19446, from 10 a.m. until noon.
