Lourdes Naris

Lourdes Villar Naris, a cherished member of the Jersey City community, passed away peacefully at the age of 84 on November 1, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. Born on April 18, 1942, in Santo Tomas, Pangasinan, Philippines, Lourdes was the daughter of the late Antonio Naris and Marcela Villar. Her journey took her to Jersey City, New Jersey, where she became a devoted member of the Harvest City Bible Church, which played a central role in her life. Lourdes' faith and community spirit were unwavering, and she found immense joy in her church family, who cherished her gentle, kind-hearted nature and her unwavering strength.

Lourdes was a beloved mother to Maritess Enriquez, Hydee Alberto, Luisito Jr. Ribo, Elizabeth Salazar, and Perlita Macadangdang, and a loving sister to Rosie Cunanan; a proud grandmother to all her grandchildren. Her nurturing spirit and love for her family were evident in every aspect of her life. Lourdes’ home was always filled with laughter, love, and the aroma of her delicious Filipino dishes, which she generously shared with all who crossed her threshold. Her legacy is one of compassion, resilience, and a deep-seated belief in the power of faith and family.

Friends and family are invited to celebrate Lourdes' life at a visitation on Friday, November 6, 2026, from 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm at Zuasola Funeral Homes of New Jersey, located at 101 Union Avenue, Belleville, New Jersey.

Lourdes will be laid to rest at Alfredo C. Pescador Memorial Park in her beloved hometown of Santo Tomas, Pangasinan, Philippines, where an additional funeral service will be held.
