Dorothy V. Scott (nee Aston), age 89 of Wayne, died peacefully on Saturday, October 3, 2015. She had lived in Packanack Lake since 1951.
Dorothy grew up in Lyndhurst, NJ. She met her husband Jerome while roller skating one day and they began dating. Marriage followed in 1946 and they built their house in Packanack Lake in Wayne and moved into it in May of 1951. Dorothy became very involved in the Packanack community, participating in events at the community club house, square dancing, Scout leader, and she loved to golf at the Packanack Golf Club. She loved to embroider and made many cowboy shirts, all by hand. She also enjoyed gardening, creating dried flower arrangements and wreaths, and playing cards. Dorothy would drop everything if a game of Pinochle was planned. In her later years, just about the only thing that would get her moving was a card game! Sadly, Jerome passed in 1986.
Dorothy was a loving wife and mother, devoted to her family. She planned a family picnic for the first Sunday of May every year, without fail, and summer vacations were usually road trips to Florida or Arizona. They would drive all the way to Arizona, with three kids in the car, and back again! She continued as a wonderful grandmother and an adoring great-grandmother, blessing them with memories to cherish throughout their lives. They will all miss her dearly.
Dorothy is survived by her three children; Gregory and his wife Chong of Pequannock, NJ, Linda Ruocco and her husband William of Deerfield Beach, FL, , and Christopher and his wife Patricia of Pequannock, NJ, four grandchildren; Donald Scott and his wife Kathy of Phoenix, AZ, Sandra Scott of Pequannock, NJ, and Chad Oliver of Deerfield Beach, FL and Anthony Ruocco of Pompton Lakes, NJ, four great-grandchildren; Kyle Oliver of St. Augustine, FL, and Dakota Scott of Phoenix, AZ, Dylan and Mathew Ruocco of Pompton Lakes,NJ her sister; Jewel Hansen of Brick, NJ, and many loving nieces and nephews.
