Obituary of Carolyn T Curcio

Somerset, NJ – Carolyn T. Curcio, 87, joined her loved ones in heaven on Thursday, April 14, 2016. She was born in Raritan (where she resided most of her life) on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1928 to her dear parents, Laura Romano and Harry Curcio. Carolyn was a Secretary for Branchburg Borough in Branchburg, a communicant of St. Ann's Church, and was a proud member of their choir. She enjoyed playing the piano, baking, and spending time with her family. Carolyn had a natural talent for art and transformed canvases into works of art by using pastels and paints. She had a beautiful singing voice and she and her sisters would perfectly blend harmonies. Carolyn served as an inspiration by sharing everyday moments of her homemade treats and answering "Jeopardy" questions. Her big achievement later in life was graduating Raritan Valley Community College as Summa Cum Laude. Carolyn was a kind, caring, generous person, and will be sadly missed by all who knew her. Carolyn is survived by her beloved sisters, Sally Kennedy of Bridgewater, and Annette Del Rocco of Raritan, several loving nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and friends. She was predeceased by her parents, her brother, Ralph Curcio and sister-in-law, Emilie.
