Benny R. Gusciora, age 91, of Ocean View, DE, formerly of Bradley Gardens, NJ, passed away on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, at Excel Care in Lewes, DE.

Born in Bound Brook, NJ on July 14, 1934, Benny was the son of the late Benedict Joseph Gusciora and Frances (Hall) Gusciora. He worked as a roll mill operator for the Inmont Company until his retirement.

Retirement never slowed Benny down. He was happiest keeping busy with handyman projects and giving his time to others. A proud and dedicated member of the Bradley Gardens Fire Company for 30 years, he faithfully served his New Jersey community. Benny also loved bowling, playing softball, and spending peaceful days fishing.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Frances (Marty) Gusciora. Benny is survived by his loving wife of 63 years, Patricia (Salatney) Gusciora; his two children, Leslie Casuso and her husband, Michael, of Flemington, NJ, and Glen Joseph Gusciora and his wife, Shelly, of Milford, DE; his two grandchildren, Stephen Casuso and Benjamin Gusciora; and his youngest sister, Dianna Molesko and husband Jeff.

A graveside service will be held at 11:00 AM on Monday, November 24, 2025, at Gate of Heaven Cemetery, 32112 Vines Creek Rd., Dagsboro, DE 19939.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions in Benny's name to the Bradley Gardens Volunteer Fire Company, 24 Old York Rd., Bridgewater, NJ 08807.
