Obituary of Apollo Ralph Polise

Apollo "Ralph" Polise, 84, of Morris Plains passed away peacefully at home with his loving family by his side on January 12, 2022. Born and raised in Madison, Ralph graduated from Madison High School in 1957. He resided in Morris Plains for the past 34 years. Ralph owned a residential cleaning service in Morris Plains for 50 years, until he retired in 2014. Ralph's biggest enjoyments in life were raising his sons; his dedication to yard work (like his Father); and his love of sports. In high school, Ralph excelled in football, basketball, and baseball. Ralph was the dear husband of Kathleen Susko Polise, and the devoted father of William E. Fisher (wife Ashley) and Jeffrey A. Fisher. He was also the beloved brother of Barbara Murphy, of Madison, and Ceasar Polise, of Whippany; and the adored uncle to many nieces and nephews. Ralph was also a wonderful friend to so many who will miss him dearly. Ralph was predeceased by his siblings, Louise Polise, Ceri Polise, Ann Fiore, Joseph Polise, and Carmella Krauel. A Celebration of Ralph's Life will be held at a later date. The family kindly requests donations in memory of Ralph may be made to: Father John's Animal House, 50 Father John's Lane, Lafayette, NJ 07848 (www.fatherjohns.org).
