Donna Jean (Reed) Przybylowksi

With her family gathered around her in loving support, Donna Jean Przybylowski departed this world for the next on June 20, 2018. Such a blessing as this we will treasure for all of our days... Born to Geraldine and Arthur Reed on 28 June 1954 in Sayreville, NJ, Donna began and ended her life with love surrounding her. Sayreville immediately gave way to Milltown as Donna's hometown, a place of friendship, play, and a host of challenges and treasures. Donna's lifelong love of animals was always on full display. Ferrets and cockatoos are but two of the animal kingdom's creatures who made it into Donna's home and heart, a heart that was beyond self-giving with the extreme love she extended to everyone and every being that came into her life.  It was from Donna's heart that daughter Crissy and son Jason emerged. And their love of Donna always, and especially in her last days, stands testimony to the love with which Donna raised them. Nothing ever came into Donna Jean's life to rival Jim Przybylowski. Their decades together are unsurpassed by the love and utter devotion they shared. To witness Jim taking care of Donna in these last years is to have witnessed a greater love than most of us ever dream of. Donna Jean now joins her mother and father, her grandmothers CarrieReed and Rose Dunn, and other family members who have preceded her, along with those beloved Ridgebacks and many other cherished pets. Donna leaves behind devoted husband Jim, daughter Cristen Troop, son Jason Kerekesch, stepson Jimmy Przybylowski,  grandchildren Kailey, Brandon, Emma Rae, and Joey, mother-in-law Ruth, brother Skip Reed and sister-in-law Margaret and many beloved friends and neighbors. Donna’s family will welcome friends Sunday 2-4 & 7-9pm at the Bronson & Guthlein Funeral Home of Milltown.  The funeral service will be celebrated Monday 11am at the funeral home followed by interment at Holy Cross Cemetery, East Brunswick, NJ.
