Margaret M. Gaudenzi of Haddonfield, NJ died November 16, 2025. Age 84. Beloved wife of the late Thomas Gaudenzi. Loving mother of Christine Gaudenzi (Mark Spencer) and Jacqueline Paparone (Donald). Devoted grandmother of Chelsey Freeman (Ryan Evers), Madison Fink and Joseph Fink. Devoted great-grandmother of Rowan Evers. Dear friend Regina Dybka.
Margaret Mary Cullen was born in New York City in 1941 in an Irish immigrant family and enjoyed her city upbringing among her sister Patricia and brothers Samuel, Robert and John. She was a gifted student who advanced through school a year ahead of her peers and she felt incredibly privileged to attend St. Jean Baptiste High School, a school that still educates girls from diverse backgrounds. Margaret was born with the gift of storytelling, and her family will miss her lore of city life, many stories told impersonating her parent's Irish brogues. Margaret and her husband lived in many states and even Canada as his career took him on a journey of several transitions. Margaret excelled at creating a new home for her family every two to four years depending on where Thomas Gaudenzi's career took her. Later in life, following her early career days as an administrative assistant at Newsweek in NYC, she enjoyed a new career start as her two daughters were older. She worked at the Cherry Hill Chamber of Commerce and more recently Bancroft, a place whose mission she felt proud to contribute to in her role supporting the President and CEO. What made her most proud was to share stories of her daughters, grandchildren and great grandson.
Celebration of Life Details will be shared at a later date. For those who wish to make any recognition of Margaret's life, the family asks that donations be made to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
