Adalynn Fauries Nugent

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Adalynn Fauries Nugent, a beloved daughter, wife, mother, sister, nanny, aunt, niece, cousin, daughter-in-law, grandmother, and friend. She departed this life peacefully on November 14, 2025, at the age of 77.

Adalynn was married for 56 beautiful years to her high school sweetheart, the love of her life. She was a devoted mother to her two sons and a proud “Momo” to her three treasured grandchildren. Her greatest joy came from supporting her family—whether cheering from the stands at ballgames, attending school events, or simply savoring everyday moments together. Watching her children and grandchildren pursue their passions brought her immeasurable happiness.

A proud graduate of Redemptorist High School, Class of ’66, Adalynn found lifelong friendship and fellowship within her Redemptorist lunch group, whose companionship she cherished deeply. She had a remarkable talent for organizing celebrations and family gatherings, effortlessly bringing people together and ensuring every occasion felt special and full of love.

Those who knew Adalynn will remember her for her generosity, quiet strength, and steadfast loyalty. She was a source of comfort, stability, and heartfelt guidance to many. Her presence brought reassurance, and her capacity for selfless love left an indelible mark on countless lives.

Adalynn is survived by her mother, Ada; her devoted husband, Jerry; her sons, Jerry and Tim; and her beloved grandchildren, Owen, Griffin, and Zoey. She is also survived by her godson, Christopher; her brother, Laurence; and her daughters-in-law, Heidi and Alesandra. Additionally, she leaves behind her treasured in-laws—Anita, Jimmy, Joe, Beverly, John, Mary, and Don—as well as numerous extended family members and dear friends who will forever hold her memory in their hearts.

She was preceded in death by her father, Laurence; her cousin, David; and her sister-in-law, Shirley.

Although Adalynn’s earthly journey has ended, her love, warmth, and enduring spirit remain ever-present. Her legacy of devotion, resilience, and unconditional love lives on in her grandchildren and in all who were blessed to know her. She will be deeply missed, remembered always, and cherished forever.
