Helena Michalska's Obituary
Helena Michalska, age 91, passed away peacefully early Thursday morning, 4/08/2021, at her home in Carlstadt, NJ. She was a beloved mother, grandmother and wife of her only love and predeceased husband.
Her final days were spent at home surrounded by her loving family.
She was born in Poland, but lived in the USA for over 30 years. Helena was a Chef and a business owner with her husband in her earlier years. She lived her life to the fullest through simple pleasures, chatting with friends and family. Always welcoming, giving and embracing others. She was a spiritual and very religious woman, involved with many church activities throughout her life. She loved the outdoors and loved to cook. Helena also had a passion for gardening, sewing and reading. She was devoted to her family and mostly enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, especially her granddaughter, Susan who lived with her and was the most important part of her life. Her life will be forever cherished in the lives of her three children: Maria Michalski, Janina Pelak, Stephanie Muth and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren in the USA and Poland.
She will be deeply missed by her family and all who knew her. Family, friends and others whose lives Helena touched are invited to the viewing 4-8pm on Friday, 4/16/2021 at Shook Funeral Home, 639 Van Houten Ave., Clifton. A funeral service is scheduled for 10am on Saturday, 4/17/2021 at Saints Peter and Paul PNC Church, Passaic. The burial will follow at East Ridgelawn Cemetery, Clifton.
Your prayers and all expressions of love and sympathy are greatly appreciated.
May blessings of peace and love continue with you forever!
If we did not go to sleep at night
We'd never awaken to see the light
And the joy of watching a new day break
Or meeting the dawn by some quiet lake,
Would never be ours unless we slept
While God and all His angels kept,
A vigil through this "little death"
That's over with the morning's breath.
And death, too, is a time of sleeping
For those who died are in God's keeping.
And there's a sunrise for each soul,
For life, not death is God's promised goal.
So trust God's promise and doubt him never
For only through death can one live forever!
