Adeline “Addy” Pescatore (nee Cali) of Wayne passed peacefully at home on Tuesday, August 14, 2018.
She was born and raised in the Carol Gardens section of Brooklyn, New York and graduated from the New York Needles and Trade High School in New York City. She worked as an office manager for the New York City Board of Education for twenty-five years before retiring in 1995.
Adeline married her childhood sweetheart Emilio "Googy" Pescatore on September 7, 1947 at Saint Mary Star of the Sea Church in Brooklyn. They lived, worked and retired while living in Brooklyn. After their retirement they moved to the Packanack Lake section of Wayne. Addy and Emilio were all about being with their family. They loved family trips to the Jersey Shore but in reality anywhere they could be with their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. To Addy, her children were the center of her life.
She will be remembered for her huge loving heart, being full of energy, and always being there when you needed her. When it came to playing Rummikub she was the undisputed champion. She was an excellent cook specializing in all types of Italian specialties. The love she cooked into her meatballs, eggplant parmigiana and lasagna will never be forgotten. Addy was very active in the senior Wayne community. She was still driving, always on the go, and willing to help wherever she could. She enjoyed all kinds of trips with the seniors of Wayne, was active with the Golden Age Circle of Wayne and was the Secretary at the Golden Key and treasured the friends she made there.
She was predeceased by her husband of fifty-eight years Emilio Pescatore (2005); she was the devoted mother of Toni Ann Sileno and her husband Robert of Wayne, Louis Pescatore and his wife Maryanne of Manhasset, Long Island, and Steven Pescatore and his wife Lorraine of Wayne; she was the cherished grandmother of eight grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren; dearly loved sister of Josephine D’Amico of Marathon, NY and the late Antoinette Rega, Fortunata Scotto, and Rocco Cali.
In lieu of flowers memorial donations to St. Judes Children’s Research Hospital, Memorial Processing, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105-9959 would be greatly appreciated.
