Margaret W. Pelish (nee Welch) age 78 of Toms River passed into life eternal on Thursday, April 12, 2012 at Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Wayne. Prior to her passing her son Michael spent much time at her bedside and witnessed her peaceful passing from faith to sight of her Lord and Savior.

She was born in Newark and had lived in East Orange where she spent her childhood years. Margaret received her formal education at East Orange grammar school and later East Orange High School graduating with Class of 1951. She then went on to study at college for two years.

Margaret worked at the Pequannock Health Department as a secretary and then transferred to Fairfield Township where she was also a secretary before her retirement in 1992.

She was one of the founding members and dedicated parishioner of the Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church in Wayne.

Margaret principal dedication in life was her family. She was a great and loving mother who was always concerned, no matter their age, about her children’s well being. A super Mom.

Surviving to cherish her memory are two daughters Maryann Pelish and her husband Albert Sansone of Little Falls, Kathryn Pelish of Seattle, Washington; one son Michael Pelish and his wife Filomena of Wayne; two grandchildren Nicole and Sofia Pelish.

Those planning an expression of sympathy in Margaret Pelish’s memory are asked to consider The Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church.
