Lucille DiNorscio, 82, passed away peacefully on Friday, March 13, 2026, at Community Medical Center in Toms River, New Jersey, surrounded by her loving family.

Born on December 16, 1943, in Newark, New Jersey, Lucille was raised there and resided in Newark before later moving to Union, where she spent many years raising her family and becoming a cherished part of the community. She later lived in East Brunswick and, most recently, moved to Toms River last year.

Lucille worked for many years as a dedicated realtor with Larchmont Realty in Union, where she served her clients with diligence and care until her retirement. 

Lucille found great joy in life’s simple pleasures. She loved taking trips to Atlantic City, playing cards with family and friends, and especially treasured making Christmas cookies with her granddaughter, Alivia. Those moments brought her tremendous happiness and created memories that will be held close by those who loved her.

She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Theodore DiNorscio.

Lucille is survived by her sons, Donald DiNorscio and his wife, Kathleen and Daniel DiNorscio; her cherished granddaughter, Alivia; her brothers, Paul Paolella and his wife, Judy, and Raymond Paolella; as well as her longtime companion, John Zink.
