"...the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast"  Peter 5:10
Eugenia Morse, 95, passed away peacefully at home on March 7, 2021.
She was born in Naples, Italy and has been a resident of Little Falls since she arrived in the U.S. in 1955. Eugenia was predeceased by her beloved husband, Anthony, her parents Giovanni & Francesca Rizzo, her brother Gerardo Rizzo and sister Tina Pasqualini. She is the cherished mother of Ralph, Aurora Iannelli and her husband James. She is also survived by her dear cousins and many wonderful nieces, nephews, godchildren and friends whom she loved greatly and by her devoted caregiver Robin Kearsley and Lynn Carlson who lovingly cared for her. 
Eugenia had a witty sense of humor and enjoyed telling jokes and making her family laugh. She loved music, dancing and singing; especially songs from her beloved Napoli. Some of her favorite times were spent visiting with family and enjoying a cup or two of espresso. She spent many beautiful days on her sunporch reading and waving to neighbors passing by. 
Eugenia was a parishioner of Our Lady of the Holy Angels church where she was a member of the adult choir and volunteered to support many church activities. She was a devoted servant of the Lord whom she loved faithfully throughout her life.
A Funeral Mass will be held on Wednesday, March 10 at 9:30 AM at Our Lady of the Holy Angels Church, 465 Main Street, Little Falls. Please meet directly at church. Masks will be required. Interment to follow at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery, Union Boulevard, Totowa. 
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Rheumatoid Arthritis Foundation at Rheumatoid Arthritis Foundation, Help Fight RA
8815 Conroy Windermere Rd., Suite 309
Orlando, FL 32835 or at www.helpfightra.org

Eugenia, I never had the pleasure of meeting you face to face, but I feel like I know you, through your precious daughter Aurora.
God bless your soul, and rest easy in His presence.

And He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.
Revelation 21:4

Dear Aurora, Jim and Ralph,

I am so very sorry to find out about the passing of your Mom and Mother in law. She has been blessed with 95 good years. She is with your Dad again and the dear Lord. No more pain or suffering.

I am so sorry I live so far away or I would be there for her Mass.
Aurora, Know I will be thinking of you. :)

My deepest sympathies are with you at this difficult time.

Love you!

Marguerite :)

Eugenia, I wish I got the pleasure to meet you, but through my friend and an amazing person, your daughter Aurora, I got to know part of you.

Mama, as you go be with the Angles your memories will remain with your family. Aurora, Jim and Ralph, receive my deepest condolences.

I quote: Isaiah 57:1-2
The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death.

Jambo Lucy! Thank you for you kind words. I wish my mom got to meet you too, but I showed her Salma’s and family the pictures you sent me. She is smiling again and pain free.

Aurora and family, my sincere condolences. Matthew 7:16 says that " we will know them by their fruits".
I never had the chance to meet your mother but I can only imagine her loving kindness to neighbours through her fruit which is you.
May God rest her beautiful soul in eternal peace.

I remember in the 60's and 70's playing at the Nuzzo's and your Mom and Dad were such nice people.I was so intrigued when Fulvia came from Italy and as little ones we tried to tech her English. Those days in LF were treasures. God Bless Mrs. Morse
