It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Mary White, age 83.  She passed away peacefully in her sleep Sunday morning, March 2, 2025.  Mary was the first born of three children to Frances (Perry) and John Pascoal and was raised in Newark.

In 1961, Mary married her beloved husband, Roger, and they shared the same birthdate.  They had been married one month shy of 64 years.  After residing many years in Newark, they moved to Boonton in 1975 and lastly to Hamburg in 2015.

Mary worked as head teller of a bank in Newark and then Inside Sales / Customer Service for manufacturing companies the remainder of her career until early retirement in 2003.  At age 70, she went back to work part-time as a Cashier at ShopRite in Byram.  In 2015, she transferred to ShopRite in Franklin, working until May, 2020 due to the Covid pandemic.

Mary excelled at all she put her heart into including, but not limited to, cooking, sewing, crocheting, knitting, ceramics, crafts, gardening, wallpaper, etc.  She was on the Board of Directors of the Falcon Ridge HOA in Hamburg for the past seven years.

Mary was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother and will be profoundly missed.  She was predeceased by her parents; younger brother, John Pascoal; and two nieces, Karen and Christine.  Mary is survived by her devoted husband, Roger White, of Hamburg.  She is the beloved mother of Diane Kimble of Hamburg; Roger and his wife Renee of Hopatcong; Michael and his wife Pamela of Dittmer, Missouri; devoted grandmother of Jonathan, Skyler, Roger, and Ryan; adored great-grandmother of Hunter; beloved younger sister, Gloria Kyzer; many nieces and nephews; best friend of 4+ decades, Marge Cunningham; and dear friend, Linda Kehl, who has helped tremendously.
