Christopher Brozuski

Christopher “Chris” J. Brozuski, age 67 of Oak Ridge, passed Friday, January 6, 2023.

He was born to the late Charles and Victoria Brozuski in Denville, New Jersey.  He was raised in the White Meadow Lake section of Rockaway Township and graduated from Morris Hills High School with the Class of 1974.  During his high school years Chris played trumpet with the high school’s band and marching band.  He continued his education at the RETS Institute in Nutley where he received his Associates Degree as a Certified Electronics Technician.

As a young man he was a paperboy in White Meadow Lake where he would eventually work in the maintenance department of the lake.  He also worked at the ShopRite in Rockaway’s produce department during high school and while attending RETS. His degree as a Certified Electronics Technician would take him to the Casio Corporation in Parsippany, Bell Labs in Whippany and as an independent contractor for a time.  Over the last fifteen years he has worked as a Technology Coordinator for several school districts including Metuchen, Morris Plains, and through 2022 he worked with the Wharton Borough School District.

Chris met Cindy Vergano on a blind date on November 22, 1980 at a dance club in Andover.  He proposed marriage after one month of dating and Cindy said she was not ready.  It took three and a half years for Cindy to wrap her mind around marriage and they tied the knot on June 10, 1984 at Our Lady of Consolation Church, Wayne and enjoyed a honeymoon in Key West, Florida.  Their marriage was blessed with a son Greg, and they enjoyed a loving and devoted marriage of thirty-eight years.

Chris will be lovingly remembered for his ability to fix just about anything.  He was like the Energizer Bunny paired with the all-knowing skills and ability of the famous television personality MacGyver. He had every imaginable tool and always had a couple projects going on at the same time. Chris took over the basement and claimed it as his workshop. Those who knew him will recall he didn’t like the cold weather, was annoyed by the Fall and its leaves, and was not a fan of Winter. He enjoyed family trips to Wildwood, Ocean City Maryland and wanted to buy a boat until Cindy put a stop to that. He loved watching the winter and summer Olympics and was a huge Green Bay Packers – Aaron Rodgers fan.  He also shocked his family by buying a full size backhoe on eBay and when he expressed in interest in getting another back hoe Cindy had to put a stop to that just like the boat.

Chris was the loving husband of Cindy Vergano Brozuski; he was the devoted father of Greg Brozuski and his fiancé Keira Logue of Eastampton, NJ; he was the loved brother of the late Valerie Casey and her surviving husband Bernard of Holly Springs, GA, Charles and his fiancé Trish Rogalsky of Lake Hopatcong, and Michelle Lazzari of Freeport, NY; loved father-in-law Dino Vergano and late mother-in-law Dolores of Wayne: loved brother-in-law of Chris Vergano and his wife Deneen of Wayne; and dearly loved uncle of many nieces and nephews. He will also be dearly missed by his Beagle-Pointer mix dogs Gremlin and Guava.
