Eileen Marsha Jeseseke

Eileen Marsha Jeseseke, 66, lifelong resident of Saddle Brook, started her peaceful journey to heaven on Monday, August 11, 2025, after a long illness. Born in Passaic NJ, Eileen was the beloved daughter of the late Frank (Jessie) and Helen ( Kandravy) Jeseseke of Saddle Brook. Eileen is survived by her cousins Marjorie Jennings and her husband Edward, William Csejka and his wife Patricia, Brian Jennings and his wife Meghan, and their son Jackson, Kimberly Jennings and numerous lifelong friends and neighbors. Eileen is predeceased by her loving sister and caregiver Ellen Frances Jeseseke-Woolsey on July 22, 2025 and brother-in-law Russell St. Clair Woolsey, Jr. in 2007. Eileen was a graduate of Saddle Brook High School and went on to attend and graduate from William Paterson University. She had a deep appreciation for animals and found beauty in all of nature. Eileen shared her creativity and passion through her work as a floral designer at Metropolitan Plant Exchange, Paramus, and at Bill O’Shea’s Florist, Hasbrouck Heights. Eileen valued her family and the care, love and security they provided throughout her life. She enjoyed spending quality time with them, especially at their summer beach house in Ortley Beach in her younger years and later at their Toms River summer home. She lived life to the fullest and delighted in the tranquility of the ocean and the beach. Eileen was deeply devoted to her father, mother, and brother-in-law. However, her

admiration, love and appreciation for her sister and lifelong caregiver, Ellen, who

recently passed, was a bond that was very special and unmatched. Eileen and Ellen were devoted sisters, deeply connected and truly lived their lives for each other. This is evident in their passing of only a few weeks from each other. The memories of Eileen’s light-hearted spirit, sense of humor and devotion to her family will be cherished by all who knew and loved her.

A gathering of family and friends for a memorial service in eternal memory of Eileen (as well as her sister Ellen) will be held at Kugler Community Home For Funerals 311 Fifth Street Saddle Brook, NJ on Friday, September 26, 2025 from 11am-2pm. Interment to follow in SS. Peter & Paul Orthodox Cemetery in Saddle Brook.
