Annie B. Iaconio(nee Sloss) age 90 of North Haledon died on Monday, October 5, 2009 at St Josephs Hospital, Wayne with the comfort of her family by her side.

Annie was born in Kilmarnock, Scotland and came to the United States in 1946. In Scotland she had been a carpet finisher who sewed the seams in carpets and finished intricate details of carpeting on elaborate staircases. She was sponsored into the US by Mary and Bill Lough; her sister and the US soldier she had married. She settled down in North Haledon, NJ and took a job wiring transformers in Paterson.

In 1951 she married the love of her life James B. Iaconio at St. Bonaventures Church, Paterson. They took the “Manhattan Line” bus from Paterson to NYC where they honeymooned at the St. Vincent Hotel. Married for one year she had her son James and began her career as a stay-at-home mom. When James began school she took a job at the American Bible Society in Wayne where she worked for twenty years before retiring in 1984. Annie and James had a loving and devoted marriage of fifty-eight years.

Annie will be remembered as a terrific cook(she learned Italian cooking from her mother-in-law), she was outgoing, enjoyed knitting, sewing and would read three to four books at a time.

She is the beloved wife of James B. Iaconio; devoted mother of James Iaconio and his wife Eileen of Haledon; cherished grandmother of Jimmy Iaconio and Dana Galusha and her husband Nick; loved aunt of Derek Lough and his wife Charleah and their children Craig and Glynis.

Those planning an expression of sympathy in Annie’s memory are asked to consider the Haledon Ambulance Corps, 792 Belmont Avenue, North Haledon, NJ 07508.
