Miriam Ulrich Obituary

Miriam Ulrich, a cherished mother, friend, and businesswoman, passed away peacefully on August 13, 2025, in Newport News, Virginia. She was 65 years old.

Born on February 8, 1960, in Trenton, New Jersey, Miriam grew up with a passion for creativity and entrepreneurship. She pursued a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing, which led her to a successful career as a business owner in the media field. Later, she embraced her most rewarding role as a dedicated mother, pouring her heart into raising her family.

Miriam had a love for cooking, often filling her home with the comforting aromas of her culinary creations, a skill she honed through her degree in Culinary Arts. Whether enjoying the ocean breeze on Chincoteague Island, or spending time with her loyal pet, Cooper, Miriam found joy in the simple moments.

She is preceded in death by her loving husband, John Ulrich; her son, William Ulrich; and her parents, Sam and Sue Hurwitz. Miriam leaves behind her son, Michael Ulrich, and her treasured pet, Cooper, who brought immense joy to her life.

A memorial service to honor Miriam's life will be held on August 24, 2025, at 1 PM at Forest Hills Memorial Park in Reading, Pennsylvania. Family and friends are invited to gather and celebrate the life of a remarkable woman whose legacy of love and kindness will endure in the hearts of all who knew her.
