Anne Orosy (nee Kaduk), age 90 of Wayne, died on Wednesday, May 30, 2018 after a brief illness.  She had lived in Montvale, NJ before moving to Wayne two years ago.

Anne was born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.  She took her first job as a seamstress at the age of fourteen.  Of course, she was younger than Canadian law allowed for such employment, so she had to fib a little on her job application.  Lo and behold, her skills as a seamstress were exemplary and she soon found herself promoted to “supervisor!”  Not even fifteen years old yet, Anne was supervising a team of seamstresses, all of them much older than she was.  In short order, she was offered another promotion which required her to document her age.  Rather than face the potential consequences, she decided to quit and leave before any trouble might have arisen.  Nevertheless, she had proven how skilled she was as a seamstress and her talent only improved throughout the years.  She made her own wedding gown, which she later altered into a gorgeous dress which she was able to wear again and again.  She fashioned much of her own clothing, her children’s clothing, and countless other garments.  She was very skilled at just about any kind of handy-craft, especially those which required sewing and knitting.  During her senior years, she remained very socially active.  While in Montvale, she taught chair exercise classes at the Montvale Senior Community Center, and they use video recordings of her classes to this day.  She also loved to play cards, particularly Bridge and Poker.  When she moved to Wayne two years ago, she quickly found friends within the Golden Age Circle, and joined Canasta games at the Wayne YMCA where she also continued her commitment to exercise, three times per week without fail.

Anne met her husband Joseph at the wedding of a mutual friend, where they were each serving in the wedding party.  Joe took her to the movies on their first date, and they married in 1946.  Joe was a skilled mechanical engineer with more than seventy patents to his name.  His skills however, caused him to be in high demand professionally, and he traveled extensively during his career.  Their family also moved more than seven times, living in Canada, New York City, Connecticut, Chicago, and New Jersey.  Anne was always the devoted wife and worked tirelessly to raise their children and maintain the family home.  Joe passed in 2002 after fifty-six years of marriage after which Anne began to enjoy some traveling of her own.  She has visited Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, England, Switzerland, Spain, and many more destinations.  She had always been fascinated by Kangaroos, and on her trip to Australia she was able to fulfill her dream.  She has lived a long life, filled with many blessings and good health.

Anne is survived by her two children; Cindy Orosy and her husband John Toth of Wayne, and Gary Orosy and his wife Kelly Ring of Krum, Texas, as well as her grandchildren, including Erik Nyby, Michael Nyby and his wife Sonia of Toronto, Canada, and Stephen Orosy of Krum, Texas.  She was predeceased by her husband Joe in 2002.
