Rumpa S. Kuck

Rumpa Suwanvet Kuck, 76, of Pemberton Twp, NJ, passed away on Friday, November 7, 2025, at Virtua Memorial Hospital in Mount Holly, NJ, surrounded by the love of her family.
Born in Lopburi, Thailand, on November 10, 1948, to the late Sak and Bua-Nguan Suwanvet, Rumpa's life was defined by love, dedication, and generosity. In 1973, while her future husband, Edgar Paul Kuck, was serving in the United States Air Force, their paths crossed - beginning a lifelong partnership filled with adventure, devotion, and mutual respect. Together, they made their home in Andersen Air Base, Guam, Griffiss Air Force Base, NY, and finally settled in Pemberton, NJ, where Rumpa resided for more than 49 years.
Rumpa was known for her warmth and readiness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. She was an avid volunteer and a friend to all who knew her. Exceptionally talented, she found joy in cooking, gardening, and sewing, creating beauty and comfort through everything she touched. Her kindness, patience, and generosity of spirit will be fondly remembered by all who were lucky enough to know her.
She is survived by her sons, Noppong Suwanvet and Michael Kuck; her daughter Nancy Ballesteros (Mark); and her beloved granddaughter, Maria Ballesteros, who brought her immense joy. She is also survived by several siblings, nieces, and nephews around the world, who will cherish her memory. She was preceded in death by her husband, Edgar, her daughter, Amornrat Suwanvet, and several siblings who passed before her.
A Thai Buddhist ceremony will be held at a later date, followed by inurnment at Arlington National Cemetery.
Rumpa will be dearly missed and forever remembered for her gentle heart, joyful spirit, and the love she shared so freely. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Rumpa S. Kuck, please visit our floral store.
