Bertha A. Moss

Bertha A. Moss ( Konupka), 94, passed away peacefully on June 13, 2024 in Wrentham, MA,   formerly of Red Bank, NJ  surrounded by her loving family.  Bertha was born on November 23, 1929 to the late Joseph and Josephine Konupka and was raised in West Wyoming, PA.   She was married to her high school sweetheart, Robert Moss, for more than 50 years and they were inseparable until his death in 2009.  She was an amazing mother to sons Ronald (deceased), Wayne (wife Pam) of Medfield, MA and David (wife Jill) of Red Bank, NJ raising them in Maywood, NJ.    She was a special grandma to five grandchildren Kristin Rhyne (Stephen),  Dan Moss (Wesley), Karyn Parsons (Matthew), Mackenzie Moss (fiancé Liam)  and Morgan Moss.  Also survived by five great-grandchildren (James and Charlotte Rhyne; Isabelle, Charlie and Henry Parsons).  One of seven children, she was predeceased by her siblings John, Katherine, Sophie, Ann and Helen.  She is survived by her brother Joseph “Sonny” Konupka (wife Lucille) of Harrisburg, PA and several loving nieces and nephews.

Bertha loved her family and her church.  She was devoted to her family and was a wonderful stay at home mother raising her sons.  Once her sons grew older, Bertha returned to the workforce and enjoyed her work for many years with the administrative team at the Sears Roebuck Distribution Center where she excelled in her position.  What was most special about Bertha was her warmth and her smile which could light up the room.   She enjoyed painting, dancing and being around family and friends.   She was generous and thoughtful and her grandchildren always looked forward to her visits.  Bertha will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.

Visitation will be held on Friday, June 21st from 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM with a service beginning at 10:30 AM at Van Emburgh-Sneider-Pernice Funeral Home, 109 Darlington Avenue, Ramsey, NJ.  Interment will follow at Maryrest Cemetery in Mahwah, NJ.
