Edward Paul Dzurinko

Edward dedicated his career to public service as Director of Public Works for the Town of Ramapo, where his hard work, integrity, and practical knowledge earned the respect and admiration of colleagues and community members alike. He was a proud graduate of Bucknell University, where he was also a talented college runner.

Throughout his life, Edward remained active and adventurous. He enjoyed bike riding, long walks along the ocean with his wife, and spending cherished time at Long Beach Island. He was the family handyman who could repair just about anything and was always the first to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.

Edward also had a sharp mind and a great love for trivia. An avid watcher of Jeopardy!, he amazed family and friends with how often he knew the answers before the contestants did.

Above all else, Edward loved his family deeply and treasured every moment spent with them. He adored his beloved dogs, Branson and Grace, and always looked forward to taking them on walks. His kindness, intelligence, humor, and unwavering devotion to those he loved will be remembered always.
