Dolores Bosland age 78, “a skilled and dedicated teacher in the Wayne School System,”of Wayne died Friday, June 20, 2008 at the Saint Joseph’s Wayne Hospital Hospice.
She was born in Paterson and had lived her formative years in Paterson later living in Fair Lawn before moving to Wayne forty-seven years ago.
Dolores received her formal education at Paterson Grammar School No. 5 and then at Paterson Central High School graduating with the Class of 1947. She then made a career choice of becoming a teacher and went on to William Paterson Teachers College where she received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Education with the Class of 1950. Later she received her Masters Degree in Primary Education from Montclair State College.
She was employed by the Wayne Board of Education retiring in June 1986. Most of her thirty-eight year career, as a teacher, was at the Pines Lake Elementary School in Wayne.
It was obvious by her endless endeavors in teaching that she loved her work and the children she was privileged to teach. Wayne Township and the students of the school system that received her instruction were truly benefited personally from having such a dedicated teacher. Many of her former students have fond memories of her skills and over the years have maintained a personal friendship with her. You could safely arrive at the conclusion that she found teaching to be the perfect job for her life.
She was particularly skilled at art including, sketching, oil painting, ceramics and many other forms of art work. She also had a ceramic studio in her home and in her spare time she taught that subject to many people. When not teaching she pursued her joy of gardening around her home.
Her personality was that of an extravert who loved people especially her students as evidenced by her dedicated approach to teaching.
Within her family she took over her late mother’s role keeping the family unit and was the cohesive force that brought all the family members together for special family gatherings.
Surviving are one very special cousin to Czeslawa Grycewicz who everyone in the family calls “Aunt Ches” of East Brunswick; six first cousins including Fran Shaw of Wayne, Irene Efchak of Wallington, Dolores Bogan of Ocean, William Pietrowitz of Cayce, South Carolina, Irene Pietrowitz of Wallington, Thomas Pietrowitz of Marco Island, Florida and Edward Pietrowitz of Wallington she is also survived by an extended Bosland family.
She is also survived by her faithful companion Krissi II.
Dolores was predeceased by her parents Mary and Leonard Bosland and her beloved brother Ronald Bosland.
