Miriam (nee Mundy) on May 25, 2026. Daughter of the late Paul and Margaret Mundy, beloved mother of Joseph (Karen) and Sean Broderick. Loving grandmother of Kelly, Kristen, Shannon and Kaleigh Broderick. Sister of Paul (Mary Ellen) Mundy, Kathleen (Walter) Martin and Kevin (Roberta) Mundy.
Miriam was born on February 14, 1940, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She was raised in Philadelphia and attended Little Flower Catholic High School for Girls, where she participated in theater and graduated in 1957. After high school, Miriam married Joseph Broderick and began raising her family in Northeast Philadelphia before later moving to Barrington, New Jersey.
Following her life’s mission, she worked in a variety of entry-level and internship positions in the addictions field, gaining the experience and certifications required to build her career. She later earned her undergraduate degree from Saint Joseph’s University and went on to receive her Master’s degree in Theology from Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary, now known as Palmer Theological Seminary.
After completing her graduate studies, Miriam established a private counseling practice where she provided addiction, marriage, and family counseling for many years, devoting her life to helping individuals and families heal and rebuild their lives. In 1998, Miriam founded My Father’s House, a nonprofit substance abuse and rehabilitation center that reflected her lifelong commitment to serving others with compassion, faith, and understanding.
Miriam will always be remembered for her unwavering faith in God, tireless dedication, deep compassion, and endless love for the people whose lives she touched.
