Maurice B Bielicki Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Maurice Baker Bielicki was born on June 11, 1931, in Camden, NJ. Ray, as he was known to his friends and family, passed away peacefully on May 24th, 2022 in Naples, FL. Ray spent his childhood years immersed in sports, lettering in football, basketball and baseball all four years he attended Camden High School. After graduating he attended college briefly then enlisted in the United States Army during the height of the Korean War in 1951 where he was a member of the First Cavalry. When he returned from Korea, Ray became a member of the Camden Police Department. He married his wife, Barbara Ann Cannon, in 1969. She supported his efforts every step of the way and together, they had one child: Dana. Ray obtained a degree in Criminal Justice from Ryder University and spent the balance of his career working for the NJ Division of Civil Rights as a case conciliator. Ray was a lover of sports movies, music and dancing. He was deeply passionate about football and could be found glued to the television every Sunday with a plate of cheese and crackers to snack on while watching the gameday lineup. He played softball and basketball into his mid-sixties and golfed and bowled in his later years when he also took up cornhole. Ray was always thrilled to take his wife for a spin around the dancefloor. He was an active member of the Elks Club and enjoyed the time he spent with friends singing karaoke there and at the Moose club. He is survived by his loving wife, Barbara Ann and daughter, Dana; his son, Keith; and his granddaughter, Elena. He is predeceased by his daughter, Lisa, and son, Dean. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at Shikany's Bonita Funeral Home on Wednesday June 8, 2022 at 4:00 P.M. Committal will take place in William C.
