She Worked For New Jersey Transit In Maplewood Until She Retired In 2008. Our Mother Was A Kind, Caring And Giving Person Who Always Put The Needs Of Her Family And Friends Before Her Own.

Our Mother Was A Source Of Inspiration To Us All And She Will Be Deeply Missed By Everyone Whose Lives She Touched. Mom Truly Believed In Community, Service To That Community, And Connecting To Others Through Time Well Spent. This Was Evident Through Her Volunteering At Her Church, Bingo, Meals-On-Wheels And Many School Events.

A Deeply Religious Woman Who Did More Than Just Practice Her Faith, She Lived It Every Day
