Tiffany Lynn Nardella
April 6, 1974 – July 10, 2026
Tiffany Lynn Nardella, 52, of Somerdale, NJ, took to eternal flight on Friday July 10, 2026. Born in Clifton Springs, NY, she was the loving daughter of Rebecca Jane Hesbon and the late Graham Smith; devoted wife and life partner to Michael Nardella.
A graduate of Midlakes High School, she attended the Rochester Institute of Technology where she studied civil engineering until her passion for social work came into focus. She was driven to make the world a better place for others and set out on a path to do so.
Upon receiving her bachelor’s degree, she spread her wings and moved to Philadelphia, which quickly became home for her; she fell in love with the city and its people. Tiffany went on to receive her Master of Library Information Science from Drexel University, fulfilling her desire to provide access to programs and services for the numerous communities that she would ultimately serve.
After working at CHOICE and The University of the Arts, she began her career at the Free Library of Philadelphia, where she ascended to branch manager and administrator, taking on roles that were critical to its mission. She loved her job and the people she worked with and supervised, her collective library family. The work was often challenging but she found it to be deeply meaningful and rewarding.
In 2011, Tiffany met the love of her life and best friend, Michael. The feeling was mutual, and two years later they exchanged vows in the Marigny neighborhood of New Orleans, a place they had visited earlier that aligned with their love of live music and cultural activities. Prior to their wedding, they had adopted their beloved pit bull Comet, a one-year-old rescue pup who would prove to be the sweetest, most loving boy. He quickly adhered to their side – mostly Tiffany’s – as they embodied the same unwavering spirit and lust for life. They built their cozy nest together, serving as shelter for all of life’s challenges that would lie ahead. Never content with confinement, she made full use of her time to explore beyond the status quo, always maintaining that being with Michael allowed her to be her true free-spirited self and included much dancing in the kitchen – a precious side meant for his eyes only.
Along her journey, Tiffany was an active member of DENJPA and Living Beyond Breast Cancer. She devoted much time and energy to advocating legislative action for more research and funding and held special bonds with her fellow survivors. She was an avid cyclist and member of the Young Survival Coalition (YSC Philly) and participated in the annual East Coast Tour de Pink for many years. When she could no longer ride, she turned her focus towards volunteer work, serving as an English tutor for refugees at the Camden County Library and volunteer at PAWS Philadelphia. She was inclined to give back to society for the greater good.
When she wasn’t enduring treatment, she immersed herself in nature and the outdoors. She enjoyed camping, hiking, gardening, kayaking, paddleboarding, yoga, swimming, and beach days – her ultimate happy place. She also became enamored with birds and had transformed her backyard into a thriving habitat for numerous species, notwithstanding the squirrels; the sound of chirping was music to her ears.
She loved to travel, whether it be to a Library conference in Denmark with colleagues, a train ride to Montana with her mom Becky, an Airbnb in Venice Beach with in-laws Brian & Lynne, or a secluded cabin in the woods with her chosen family Dave, Jackie, Jason & Carolyn.
Tiffany will always be remembered for her compassion towards others and her ability to face life with grace, strength and humor. She was an inspiration to others, a caring and genuine person who achieved her goal of making the world a better place for everyone who came to know and love her.
She is survived by her brothers Matt Cramer (fiancé Robin) and Chris Smith (wife Tracy); her sister Jennifer Smith Vorrasi (husband Tony); her sisters-in-law Lori Kozlosky (husband Mark), Lisa Nardella and Lynne Nardella (husband Brian); her Aunt Barb and Uncle Jim Sanford; her Cousin Samantha Sanford-Mereau (husband Matt); her nephews and nieces Dane (wife Erin), Devin, Graham, Caitlin, Colin, and Mia.
In addition to her father, she was preceded in death by her mother-in-law Judith Nardella; her brother-in-law Brian Nardella; her cherished fur-babies Willow, Sabrina and Comet.
Her father-in-law Louis Nardella came to pass shortly afterwards; her resilience and positive attitude provided much inspiration for him in his final months.
A memorial service will be held in her honor on Saturday August 29th at Kain-Murphy Funeral Services, 15 West End Ave. Haddonfield, NJ. Relatives and friends are invited to greet Tiffany’s family from 12 – 1:15pm. Words of Remembrance will begin at 1:30pm, and post-gathering will conclude at 3pm.

Judith Miller
Age: 88 of Haddonfield
Judith P. Miller (nee Peters) who was born August 9, 1937 to the late John and Ethel Peters -owners of Haddonfield’s well known Peters Ice Cream and Candy – passed away on July 20, 2026, after spending her entire life in Haddonfield.
Judith (Judy) was the devoted wife of the late Harry C. Miller, the cherished mother of Steve (Cheryl) Miller, Donna (John) Perkins, and John (Jan) Miller; grandmother of Mike (Jess), Dani, Sean (Jamie), Kyle (Jenny), Ally (Anthony), Brittany (Ben) and Tyler (Ocean); And, the Great Grandmother of 10.
Later in life, she became the first female employee at Westmont Hardware. She also guided school children through the intersection of Hopkins Ave., and Grove Street as their beloved crossing guard. She enjoyed vacationing at the Jersey shore and it was there that she met Harry and where they continued to vacation with their children and grandchildren. She loved to sing or hum a melody, quote a random poem, and diligently document in her calendars – and then remind everyone each year – of every ‘Miller Moment’. And, let’s not forget the call backs that followed immediately after both hung up the phone…or the dollar bills.
Funeral services for Judith will be held privately by the family. In lieu of flowers, charitable donations in Judith’s name may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association (https://www.alz.org/?form=FUNDHYMMBXU ).

Peter Van Dyke Bull
Age: 88 of Haddonfield
Peter Van Dyke Bull passed away peacefully at his home following a courageous battle with arterial sclerosis.
Born in 1938, at Flower Hospital in Manhattan, New York, Peter was raised in Garden City, New York, where he developed the strong work ethic, integrity, and determination that would define his life.
Peter attended Norwich University in Northfield, Vermont, before transferring to Hofstra College in Hempstead, New York. It was at Hofstra that he met the love of his life, Judith Glover. The couple married on January 27, 1962, at Grace Methodist Church in Valley Stream, New York, and shared 57 wonderful years of marriage until Judy’s passing.
In 1966, Peter and Judy made their home in Haddonfield, New Jersey, where they became devoted members of Haddonfield Methodist Church. Peter also proudly served in the Army National Guard until 1969.
Peter began his professional career as a paper salesman with West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company before transitioning into packaging sales in the Philadelphia area. After achieving success with Anchor Container, he founded Taurus Packaging Corporation, representing several packaging manufacturers throughout the region.
In the early 1990s, Peter partnered with his son, Christopher, and another business associate to establish Taurus Packaging and Display. As President, Peter helped grow the company from a small four-person operation located on the third floor of his Haddonfield Mews townhouse into a thriving corporation employing dozens of people. His entrepreneurial vision, leadership, and commitment to his employees and customers remained the cornerstone of the business until his retirement in 2007.
For over 40 years, he and Judy spent all their summers on Long Beach Island. The little bungalow they bought in 1968 became the center of our family life every weekend in the spring and fall. And every day from the last day of school until Labor Day. Countless memories and many great friendships were forged there.
Another passion for Peter was his cars. Over the years, he collected beautiful classics—a 1953 Jaguar, a pistachio green Kaiser-Darrin, his favorite Austin Woody, a 1953 Studebaker, a 1965½ Mustang convertible, a Mercedes convertible, and, of course, the unforgettable 1988 Rolls-Royce convertible which he proudly drove in the annual July 4th Parade for many years.
Peter will be remembered as a devoted husband, loving father, proud grandfather and great-grandfather, successful businessman, faithful church member, and friend to many. His legacy lives on through the family he cherished, the business he built, and the countless lives he touched through his kindness, wisdom, and unwavering dedication.
Peter was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Judith “Judy” Bull. He is survived by his brother, Steven Bull; his son, Christopher Bull (Jeanne Marie); his daughter, Jennifer Bull (Eric Mason); his granddaughters, Nicole, Michelle, Christy, and Kate; and his great-grandchildren, Margot and Levi.
He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, former colleagues, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. May his memory be a blessing.
A Celebration of Life for Peter will be held on Friday, July 24th from 12:00-3:00pm at Tavistock Country Club 100 Tavistock Ln., Haddonfield, NJ 08033. In lieu of flowers, charitable donations in Peter’s name may be made to Wise Animal Rescue www.wiseanimalrescue.com or to the New Jersey Humane Society https://www.newjerseyhumanesociety.org/.
