Della M. Wisniewski's Obituary
Della “Dolly” M. Wisniewski (née Reigal) passed away peacefully on March 26, 2026, with her family by her side. She was born on December 17, 1937, in Philadelphia, PA, to the late Rose Marie Monforto.
Dolly was the beloved wife of 65 years to the late Thomas Wisniewski Sr., who passed in 2022. She had been a proud resident of Cinnaminson, NJ since July of 1978, after spending her early years in Philadelphia.
She was the loving mother of the late Thomas Wisniewski Jr., the late Robert Wisniewski (Rita), and Diane Hudson (née Wisniewski), wife of the late Randall Hudson.
Dolly was a cherished grandmother and Nana to Melissa Salvatoriello (Dominic) (née Hudson), Christopher Mell, Ryan Hudson, Thomas Wisniewski III (Jaime), Jennifer Jung (Michael) (née Wisniewski), Christine Haney (née Sparks), Michael Mucerino, and Thomas Sparks. She was also the proud great-grandmother of 13.
Dolly met her husband, Thomas, at a young age, and they married when they were just 21 and 19. Together they built a beautiful life and raised their family in Philadelphia. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and Nana—full of life, energy, and personality. Known for being spunky and feisty, Dolly brought joy, laughter, and strength to those around her.
Before fully retiring, she worked as a bus aide for both the First Student in Delran and Cinnaminson school districts working directly with special needs children, roles she truly loved. She had a deep affection for animals, loved spending time with her family, was always listening to music and/or watching shows and movies, enjoyed cooking and baking, and loved shopping anywhere she could go.
She will be deeply missed by all who loved her.
Services will be held privately for the family.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Randall’s Rescue in memory of Della. www.RandallsRescue.com
