Surrounded by her loving family, Mary Eleanor Ehrlich, 79, passed away peacefully at her home in Bangor on Monday, January 31, 2022. Mrs. Ehrlich is the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Caracio of East Bangor and the grand-daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Victor P. Saveri also of East Bangor. Mrs. Ehrlich is a graduate of Pius X High School and Marywood College in Scranton, Pa. She was married for 48 years to the late Robert F. Ehrlich, who passed away in 2012.
Throughout her life, Mrs. Ehrlich was a devoted housewife and mother. She was also active in several, varied careers: first as a licensed real estate agent, and later as a teacher at Pius X High School. For many years, she and her husband were avid Bridge players, and she continued this interest after his passing. She was a member of the American Association of University Women (AAUW), an intrepid volunteer every year at the Northampton County Elections headquarters, and an enthusiastic member of the Bangor area School District Concerned Citizens. Her interests were varied, but what she loved most was her home, her family and visiting with her friends.
She is survived by her three wonderful sons; Mark V. Ehrlich, William R. Ehrlich and his wife Leigh and Matthew H. Ehrlich, and her dear sister Judyann R. and her husband Ralph W. Finaldi. She has five beloved grandchildren: Makenna, Max, Olivia, Jillian and Claire. There will be a Mass of Christian Burial for her at St. Elizabeth’s Church, 300 West Babbitt Ave., Pen Argyl on Monday, February 7, 2022 at 11 AM. Internment will be in the New Catholic Cemetery in Roseto. All arrangements are being handled by Ruggiero Funeral Home in Pen Argyl. Visitation will be in the gathering space at the church from 10 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the St. Elizabeth’s Church Building Fund.
