Raymond Ostrowski Sr., passed away peacefully on Sunday February 9, 2025 with his loving family by his side.
Born in Trenton, he was a longtime resident of the Wrightstown/ North Hanover Community. He owned and operated Rays Welding and was then employed as a Blue Seal Boiler Operator with Pierce Roberts Rubber Company, retiring after 40 years of dedicated service.
Ray was known for his love of hunting and fishing, often spending time in the serene New Jersey Pine Barrens, where he found peace and adventure. His deep connection to nature was only matched by his devotion to his family.
A proud father and grandfather, Ray was happiest when surrounded by his loved ones. He had a special gift for capturing the moments that mattered most, especially through his photography. Whether it was a birthday celebration or a family gathering, Ray could always be counted on to snap a perfect picture, preserving memories that will now live on forever.
Son of the late Walter and Victoria Ostrowski, he is predeceased by his siblings, Louis "Tex" Tegzes, David Ostrowski and Ann South. He is survived by his wife, Evelyn Ostrowski, his children, Raymond Ostrowski Jr., John Ostrowski, Susan and Jack Fennimore, his grandchildren, Adam and Luke Fennimore, his siblings, Walter Ostrowski Jr., Patricia Hendrickson, Lorraine Hanuschik, and many nieces and nephews.
A Gathering of family and friends will be held on Thursday February 13, 2025 from 2:00 to 4:00 pm at the Bordentown Home for Funerals 40 Crosswicks St. Bordentown NJ 08505. Burial will be private.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made in Ray's name to Alzheimer's New Jersey 425 Eagle Rock Ave., Suite 203, Roseland, NJ 07068.
