Michelle Fanelli, 53, of Red Bank, NJ, passed away peacefully on Monday, June 30, 2025. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Michelle relocated to New Jersey many years ago where she built a life centered around her family, friendships, and warm spirit.
Michelle had a welcoming smile and kind nature that left a lasting impression on everyone she met. She had a zest for life and a heart full of compassion. In her spare time, Michelle enjoyed spending time at the beach, dancing around, and could often be found enjoying time with her loved ones.
She was predeceased by her beloved father, Wilfredo Guzman. Michelle leaves behind her loving mother, Priscilla Costello Guzman; her cherished children, Brittney Fanelli and Christopher Fanelli; her former husband, Chris Fanelli; her dear siblings, Alfred Guzman, Florence Guzman, and Francess Guzman; and a host of extended family and friends who will miss her dearly.
Family and friends are invited to pay their respects on Thursday, July 3rd, from 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Freeman Manalapan-Marlboro Funeral Home, 344 Route 9 North, Manalapan, NJ. A funeral service will be held that evening at 6:30 PM. For directions or to leave a condolence, please visit www.freemanfuneralhomes.com.
