Antonia "Nina" Panzica (nee Granata) age 95 passed peacefully at home on Sunday, September 22, 2012.
She was born and raised in Bronx New York, lived in Ridgefield Park New Jersey for twenty years, Brick New Jersey for ten years, Pompton Lakes New Jersey and finally Pompton Plains New Jersey where she lived for the past eight years.
Antonia was the perfect mom, she was involved in all of her children’s activities like Dance Committee’s, Parent Teacher Associations…you name it – she was there. She was also mom to all the kids in the neighborhood as well. She loved to travel having been to Italy two times, all across the United States, and toured all over Europe. She also liked Bingo, belonged to a bowling league when living in Brick and loved to play the slot machines. Her special touch on Cucidati’s (Italian Fig Cookies) known by the family as “Woochies” will be greatly missed.
She met Anthony Panzica at a wedding. When Anthony saw her he said “some day I’m going to’ marry her.” Their first date was a drive in the Bronx where they went to dinner. They married on February 16, 1947 and enjoyed a wonderful fifty-five years of a loving marriage.
She was the loving wife of the late Anthony Panzica Sr.(2002); devoted mother of Catherine Prior and her husband William of Wayne, and Dr. Anthony J. Panzica and his wife Susan of Paramus; cherished grandmother of Billy Prior, A.J. Panzica, and Lauren Panzica; sister of Jean Adamo of Bronx, NY, and the late Jack Granata, Mary Marsala, Josephine Catanese, Thomas Granata, Joseph Granata.
