Obituary

Christine Joan Trabulsi, 85, of Garnet Valley passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 20, 2026, at Riddle Memorial Hospital in Media, Pennsylvania.

Born in London, England, Christine immigrated to the United States in 1958. She went on to earn a bachelor's degree in biology from the College of William & Mary before pursuing her calling in nursing. She earned both a bachelor's degree and, later, a master's degree in nursing from Widener University.

Christine dedicated 25 years of her life to caring for others as a registered nurse at Riddle Hospital. Her compassion and kindness extended far beyond her work at the bedside. She led diabetes education classes, helping others better understand and manage their health, and cancer support groups, where she offered comfort, encouragement, and hope during difficult times. Through her knowledge, generosity, and genuine care, Christine touched countless lives and left a lasting impression on all those she served.

Above all, she treasured the time she spent with her family, especially her grandchildren, who lovingly called her "Nana." She devoted herself to caring for them, whether babysitting, tending to them when they were sick, preparing their meals, or simply spending time together. She delighted in playing hide-and-seek, singing songs, and creating special memories with each of them. Her grandchildren will forever remember her as a loving caregiver, devoted Nana, and cherished companion who brought comfort, joy, and love to their lives.

She was the daughter of the late: Charles and Violet (Kate) Merrick.

Survivors: Her beloved husband of 62 years: Richard Trabulsi, four children: Jason (Gediah) Trabulsi, Jennifer (Jim) Ciccarelli, Jillian (Mark) Nicosia, and Sarah (Mark) Fetterman. Additionally, she is survived by nine grandchildren: Kira, Leila, Lucas, Jacob, Eric, Alex, Colin, Victoria, and Kate.

A private service will be held Saturday, October 3, 2026, at Nolan-Fidale Funeral Home, Aston, Pennsylvania; followed by a private interment at Edgewood Memorial Park, Glen Mills, Pennsylvania.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made in Christine's honor to the American Diabetes Association.
