Publish in a newspaper

(nee Papaleo) Maria T. Honrychs, of West Berlin, NJ, passed away on September 13, 2025, at the age of 90. Beloved wife of the late Sigmund J. Honrychs, Jr., beloved mother of Denise A. Polichnowski (the late Richard) and the late Dr. Michael B. Honrychs DMD (surviving spouse Karen), proud grandmother of Matthew Honrychs, Devon (Christopher) Griffis and Dayna Honrychs and great-grandmother of Wyatt. Predeceased by her sister Bernadette Marsella.

During her life, Maria was active in her community and Church, St. Simon Stock Parish/Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church (Berlin, NJ). Maria taught CCD and served as a Eucharistic Minister that visited several area hospitals.

Family was her greatest joy. She cherished hosting holidays, telling stories, creating traditions (like baking cookies with her granddaughters), and making memorable moments with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchild. An avid cook, she loved sharing recipes for everyone to enjoy. No one ever left "Maria's Kitchen" hungry.

Known for telling it how it is, you always knew where you stood with Marie. Forever held in their hearts, she will be dearly missed by all whose lives she touched.

Relatives and friends are invited to her viewing on Thursday, September 18th from 10:00AM to 11:00 AM at St. Simon Stock Parish/OLMC Church, 178 W. White Horse Pike Berlin, NJ 08009, where the funeral Mass will begin at 11:00AM. Entombment to follow at Calvary Cemetery Mausoleum, Cherry Hill, NJ. Arrangements by BOCCO FUNERAL HOME, Cherry Hill, NJ.
