Carol Nan McEnroe, age 67, of Wayne, died peacefully on Monday, March 30, 2015.
Carol was born in Washington, PA and raised in North Arlington where she attended local schools, graduating from North Arlington High School in 1966.
Carol met her husband Raymond McEnroe while bowling in a North Arlington bowling league.
Over time their love for each other grew leading to marriage on October 9, 1971. Following a honeymoon in Bermuda, they initially settled in Lyndhurst before moving in the mid-1970’s to the Packanack Lake section of Wayne where they’ve remained to this present day.
In 1974 Carol and Ray were blessed with a baby girl and they named her Lori. Carol dedicated herself to being a full-time mother and homemaker serving as a volunteer in Lori’s Girl Scout Troop.
She returned to the workforce initially working as a medical assistant for various doctors, but she was especially proud of her later role as Manager of the Urgent Care in Riverdale. Overall, her career in the medical field spanned over thirty years.
Carol had a myriad of interests including crocheting, photography, and scrap booking. As a child, she enjoyed spending time at the Jersey shore. That love of the sand and sea continued all throughout her entire life.
After retiring, Carol and Ray got to travel a bit. They enjoyed trips to California where they volunteered to work on the floats for the Rose Bowl parade. They also vacationed in the Bahamas and, for many years, in Ocean City, Maryland.
Cooking and baking were perfect pastimes for Carol and went very well with her love for entertaining. Her house was always the place to be for all major holidays. It’s no wonder she liked to entertain as Carol was such a friendly, outgoing person who was so full of life. When she went to others homes for parties or get-togethers, you could always count on her being the first to arrive and the last to leave.
Surviving is Carol’s beloved husband of 43 years, Raymond; her dear daughter Lori and husband Frank Colaizzi of Rivervale; her dear twin brother David and wife Maria Swartzfeger; her nephew Brian and wife Laura Swartzfeger; and her great-nephew Connor.
In lieu of flowers, those planning an expression of sympathy in Carol’s name are asked to consider the American Heart Association, P.O. Box 417005, Boston, MA 02241-7005.
