Marianne E. Kraus

(nee Ksiazek) On November 7, 2020 of Audubon, NJ age 66yrs. Beloved wife of William. Loving daughter of Elaine and the late Walter Ksiazek. Devoted mother of Laura Andrews (Sean). Loving granny of Sean William Andrews. Dear sister of Linda Palmquist (David), Michael Ksiazek (Carol), Christine Wilson (Glenn), Richard Ksiazek, and Barbara Ksiazek. Also survived by many nieces and nephews. Marianne was never one to dilly-daily. A dear sister, devoted wife, loving mothing, cherished grandmother, and shameless aunt. She worked hard and burned bright every day. Sometimes, she was a bit hot to handle, but you always knew that she was telling you the truth, with love. She expected the best from everyone that she met and never hesitated to offer help when she noticed someone in need. Her fierce commitment to care for those she knew and loved made her a powerful force in our lives. Relatives and friends are invited to a visitation on Sunday June 6, 2021 from 3PM to 5PM at the POPIOLEK FUNERAL HOME, 400 Clements Bridge Rd, Barrington, NJ where a Memorial Service will follow at 5PM.
