Arline J Pearce

My mother, Arline June Pearce (Favino) , was born on Dec. 30th, 1932 in her family’s home at 27 E. Russell St, Clifton, NJ. and passed away on Nov 19th, 2025. In Oct. 1954 she married Walter N. Pearce (born Dec 1930). They were married until his death in Feb. 2000. She was a very loving and caring homemaker and mother. Even though she knew how to cook meals from scratch, she maintained her weight and was non-drinker and non-smoker. She earned a degree in Nursing and was a BSN and RN, who also worked in intensive care for 10 years. She was also an internationally recognized poet and won several awards. She was also listed in ‘Who’s Who’ for Poetry. She could be described as a true “Renaissance” woman.

She is survived by her son, Richard W. Pearce (70), daughter Noreen Pearce (67), grand-daughter Michelle Kolpak (48), grand-son Christopher Longo (44), grand-daughter Casey Longo (35), great-grandson Rawlin Howard (20), great-grandson Christopher Longo Jr. (22), great-grand-daughter Livanna Longo (24), great-grand-son Michael Solden (14), great-grand-daughter Laila Longo (14)
