Zdzisława (Musiał) Ulman, known to many as Jessie, 71, of Cumberland, RI, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 16th, 2026. Born in Poland, she was the beloved wife of the late Stanisław Ulman and the daughter of the late Andrzej and Marianna Musiał.
She lived each day with kindness, resilience, and a deep faith. Prior to retirement, she worked for more than 20 years as a Certified Nursing Assistant, caring for others with dedication and compassion.
She loved spending time with her family and friends. She enjoyed the ocean, cooking, gardening, and being outdoors—simple joys that brought her comfort and happiness. Above all, she cherished babysitting her grandchildren, creating memories with them that will be held close forever.
She is survived by her two children, Joanna Ulman and Mark Ulman and his wife Danielle; her grandchildren, Madelyn and Cameron; her sister, Barbara Obirek and her husband Zbigniew; and their three children, Darek, Tomasz, and Michal of Poland.
She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
