Clementine T. Cunningham age 96 of Wayne passed peacefully on Monday, February 2, 2015.
She was born and raised in Brooklyn, NY and when she married she moved to Wayne, NJ where her family had summered for many years.
Clementine met her husband Charles when he was making a delivery to where she worked. They soon fell in love and married at Saint Marys Church in Brooklyn, NY on August 28, 1943. They honeymooned at Niagra Falls, New York and enjoyed forty years of a loving and caring marriage before Charles passing in 1983.
She enjoyed sewing, playing cards, and loved to cook. Many will remember her as being fun with a great sense of humor. Her special touch on Italian specialties like pizza, spaghetti (she made her own pasta), and Easter pies will be greatly missed. Everyone was made to feel welcome in her home and when her children were growing up they would bring the neighborhood kids to their house as mom always had food ready for everyone. Clementine kept a long standing tradition of Sunday family dinners, and holiday dinners were always made more special by all her cooking and baking. She had a large rose garden on the side of the house and her children and neighborhood kids would ask her for roses when they had dates. She loved to talk on the phone unless the New York Yankees were on. Then she would be curt and to the point so she could get back to watching her beloved Yankees and especially Lou Pinella and Paul O’Neil…her favorites.
Clementine was a member of Holy Cross RC Church in Wayne where all her children attended school, she was a member of the Columbiettes, and her husband Charles helped to build the first Altar.
Clementine was a member of the Golden Age Circle of Wayne and served as secretary for many years.
She was the loving wife of the late Charles Cunningham(1983); devoted mother of Charles J. Cunningham and his wife Patricia of Pompton Plains, Anthony E. Cunningham of Cape Coral, FL, Joanne Woodhouse and her husband Woody of Wayne, and Mary Pat Boughton and her husband Thomas of Wayne; cherished grandmother of five grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren; she was the loving sister of the late Jean Duddy and Anthony DiRocco.
In lieu of flowers memorial donations to the Wayne Fire Dept. P.O.L Co. #2, 970 State Route 23, Wayne, NJ 07470 or the Wayne Memorial First Aid Squad, PO Box 2004, Wayne, NJ 07474 would be appreciated.
