Adeline "Mimi" Marie Gramlich, née Coppola, age 83 of Delran, NJ went to her eternal home with the Lord on Wednesday, Jan. 21, 2026.

She was born to Carmine and Antoinette Coppola on Dec. 1, 1942, in Philadelphia, PA. She was married to Joseph T. Gramlich for 63 years. Adeline is survived by five children: Joseph (Kristine) Gramlich of Bordentown, NJ, Kathleen (Gramlich) Purdy of Pennsauken, NJ, Stefen Peter Gramlich of Delran, NJ, Fr.

She is also survived by 3 siblings: Toni Bird, Carmine Coppola, and Janice DiStefano and several nephews, nieces, cousins, and other relatives.

Adeline graduated from Little Flower High School in Philadelphia and went on to earn a BA in Literature from Thomas Edison College.

Adeline was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She was a homemaker, teacher, and worked various jobs throughout her life. Adeline's relationship with God was the cornerstone of her existence. She lived her life as a testament to Catholic values and was a person of prayer. She was an active member of her church community, especially as a CCD Director. She also taught catechism, sang in the choir and was a eucharistic minister.

Her life was marked by her unwavering commitment to her family and her faith. She was a beacon of generosity and love, always placing the needs of others before her own. Her role as a housewife, mother, and grandmother to five children and ten grandchildren was her greatest joy and accomplishment. She approached every aspect of her life with a gentle and guiding hand.

Adeline found immense pleasure in life's simple joys: spending time at her Jersey Shore House, taking trips to the Poconos with her beloved husband, and celebrating holidays and birthdays with her extensive family. Her home was a celebration where memories were made and cherished. Adeline's love extended beyond her immediate family to her dear mother, with whom she shared a special bond. Her love for shopping was more than a pastime; it was an expression of her generous nature, as she delighted in finding the perfect gifts to bring joy to her loved ones.

In every sense, Adeline lived a life that was generous, faith-filled, and spirited. She leaves behind a family that is grateful for her love, lessons, and legacy. Her husband, children, and grandchildren will carry forward her light, ensuring that the values she held dear will continue to flourish. As we bid farewell to Adeline, we celebrate a life beautifully lived and a soul profoundly loved. Her journey on earth may have concluded, but her spirit will be etched forever in the hearts of those who knew her. Adeline's life reflected her Savior's love, and we take solace in knowing she rests now in His eternal embrace.
