Barbara J. Ryan (nee Wimmer), age 67, of Williamstown, NJ, formerly of Somerdale, NJ, passed away on September 14, 2024, surrounded by her loving family.
Barbara was born and raised in Philadelphia, PA. Known to many as, "Bocci," she was a vibrant soul, who found joy in playing the lottery, casinos, and Jersey Shore beach days. Her ultimate happiness was found in trips to Jamaica, her cherished "happy place." Barbara was an animal lover and had an affection for senior shelter dogs. She leaves behind her little rescue dog, Gracie. She was a dedicated wife, mother, grandmother, and sister. Bocci shared an extraordinary bond with her grandchildren, who were the center of her world. She will be deeply missed by the ones that loved her most.
Beloved wife of the late Edward G. Ryan. Devoted mother of Kelly Moczydlowski (Joe) and Erin Cinalli (Joe). Dear sister of Linda McCullough and Janice Smith (Timothy). Loving grandmother of Joe, Jordan, JoeJoe, Henry, Elliana, and Ryan.
