null Pufall Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Jones Funeral Home - Richlands on Feb. 18, 2026.
Benjamin & Sebastian Pufall (7) Passed unexpectedly February 8, 2026.

Benjamin & Sebastian were born on September 19, 2018, in Jacksonville, NC to
Barbara Zarlinga and Zack Pufall.

In life the boys lived large, loved big, and played hard. They enjoyed playing with
their toy trucks, getting dirty, and spending time with their family. They both had such big hearts and they had the purest love. Their smiles lit up the room and their laugh filled the air. Anyone could not help but laugh and smile being around them.

Benji was the curious brother, outgoing and always looking for the next adventure. He had a dream of building a robot out of spare parts and pieces found all over the yard and had started to find objects to do just that. Bash was the timid one, not as outgoing as his brother, but was always there with him. He had a sense of humor and could make you laugh just by looking at you with his silly face and mannerisms.

Together they were the perfect mix of both worlds. So completely different and yet so much the same. Put together in this worldly plane to change the world and every single heart they encountered. Their lives may have been taken far too early for our hearts and minds to comprehend but their bodies and souls had a great mission.

Proceeded in death by their grandfather Robert W. Zarlinga

They leave behind Cameron Carey, brother, Hailey Carey, sister, Olivia Pufall, sister,
Grandparents Denise Capretta Morrison, grandmother, Patricia Pufall, grandmother, Ted Pufall, grandfather, Bobby Zarlinga, uncle, Jackie Zarlinga, aunt, Sophia Zarlinga, cousin, Matt Pufall, uncle, Lindsey Clements, aunt and many loving family and friends.

Services will be held Saturday February 21st 2025 at Richlands Elementary School 415 Cow Horn Rd, Richlands, NC 28574

Visitation 11am-1pm Service 1pm-2pm
