Margaret E. Paralusz Obituary
Margaret Paralusz entered eternal life May 18, 2025. Born on October 7, 1951 in New Brunswick, New Jersey, Margaret was a faith-filled, kind-hearted woman with an easy-going, always encouraging outlook on life. She was devoted to her family, always reaching for hugs and sharing adoring smiles with her loved ones. Margaret was a dedicated Catholic school teacher for over 35 years and continued her service to educating children through volunteering for many years after her retirement. She was known for her love of the Jersey Shore, spending nearly every summer of her life there!
Margaret was a cherished daughter, sister, aunt, and great aunt. Preceded in death by her parents, Theodore "Ted" and Elizabeth "Betty" (Church) Paralusz, survived by her sister and brother-in-law Patricia (Paralusz) and Todd Bence, her nephews, niece and their families: Justin and Monica (Wehba) Bence and their children Jameson and Sadie; Chelsey (Bence) and Paul Ericson and their children Isak, Olin, Finn, and Annika; Cameron and Allison (Eckert) Bence and their children Nolan and Jaden; Tyler and Bridget (McEwen) Bence and their children Georgia, Davy, and Adeline; and Gavin and Regina (Basconi) Bence and their daughter Olivia.
Margaret was fortunate to have many dear friends and care-takers whom she loved. Whether it was catching the breeze on the back porch of #10, 11th lane, discussing the Brewers, walking her dogs, or endless games of dominoes, she loved visiting and was grateful to everyone that spent time with her.
