Obituary of Louise Farella

Louise Farella, age 87, passed away surrounded by the love of her family on Saturday, November 25, 2023. She was born on August 1, 1936, in New York, New York, to the late Gabriel and Angela (Valenzano) Farella. As a young girl, Louise relocated to North Brunswick, where she would spend the entirety of her life.

Louise was a woman of remarkable achievements, dedicating her professional life to the real estate industry. She served with pride and success at the Bob Grimm Agency in East Brunswick, leaving an indelible mark on the community she served. In her leisure time, Louise found joy in the thrill of Atlantic City, where she and her brother would try their luck in the casinos. Her taste for the finer things in life was also evident in her appreciation for a glass of wine, always enjoyed with only a single cube of ice. Above all else, Louise cherished her family and took immense pride in being a great-great Aunt. Her love and devotion to family were unwavering, creating lasting memories that will be cherished by all who knew her.

Louise is predeceased by her brothers, Ralph, Angelo, Joseph, and Louis, as well as their spouses, Antoinette and Kim. She is also preceded in death by her sisters Rose Caruso and Mary Santoro, along with their husbands Vincent Caruso and Cateno Santoro, and her sister-in-law, Sandi Farella.

She is survived by her brother, Michael Farella, and her loving nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, great-great-nieces, and great-great-nephews, as well as her godchildren, extended family, and friends.
