Alma Jane Scheer, 88, of Galloway NJ passed away June 6th 2024. Born January 18th 1936, Alma was born and raised in Newark, NJ before moving to Short Hills, NJ and retiring down south to Galloway. Alma attended Rutgers University where she obtained her degree in Biology followed by a successful career at Hoffman Roche as a Chemist/Pharmacist. She was preceded in death by her mother Alma J Scheer and sisters Janice Fritz and Virginia Bauer.
Alma was a kind soul, who could do no harm to others. Nothing brought Alma more joy than her pets over the years, with a special affinity for the many cats she had. Alma enjoyed self surpassing jeopardy contestants, scrabble games with family, and crossword puzzles, anything that put her great mind to work. When not at home she enjoyed spending time with her sisters, Janice and Ginny, bouncing about Atlantic City and the surrounding area, commonly being referred to as the golden girls.
In lieu of flower please make a donation to an Alzheimer's Association of choice.
