Margaret “Peg” Crum
1948 – 2023
Margaret “Peg” Crum, of Parsippany, NJ, formerly of Ewing, NJ, died peacefully on the evening of Friday, December 22, 2023 at St. Clare’s Hospital in Denville, NJ from unexpected complications due to a recent illness. She was 75.
Born in Hungary on April 16, 1948, she immigrated to the United States in 1956. She worked for AT&T and then at a law firm. She later focused her energies on her greatest passion – taking care of and spending time with her family. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She enjoyed cooking, crocheting and sharing stories of the past with her grandkids.
Daughter of the late Zigmund and Irma Nemes, she was a devoted wife to her late husband Gregory Scott Crum.
She is survived by her three sons: Anthony Mezo (companion Deanne Vonier) and children Ann Marie, Anthony Jr, and Tatum Rae; Jeffrey (Susan) and their daughter Ashleigh; Michael (Michela) and children Arianna, Luciano, Giulianna, Lilianna, Giovanni and Leonardo; her two younger sisters: Maggie (Dale) Wainright and their daughter Margie; Maria (Frank) Behlert and their son Colt; her two brothers-in-law: Alan (Marion) Crum; Thomas (Denise) Crum and several loving nieces and nephews. She is also survived by her close friend of 14 years, whom she considered the daughter that she never had, Mindy (Roy) Hylton and their children Eliana, Annabel and Nathaniel.
She was greatly loved and will be surely missed. We bless God for the life she shared and the love she gave to us. May her soul be at peace as she rests in the arms of Jesus Christ. We love you, Peg!
