Edith M. Restaino (nee Noce), age 98 of Wayne, died on Wednesday, August 15, 2018.  She had lived in Wayne since 1966.

Edith grew up in Newark, on Hartford St., in the heart of the city.  Her family owned several businesses there, including Noce Ice, Noce Fuel Oil, and the C&I Coal Company.  Edith was always good with numbers and served as the bookkeeper for all their businesses, and at the Newman Tannery in Newark, Bally’s Fitness in Wayne, and the Lakeland Healthcare Center in Wanaque, just to name a few.  Her children recall the neighborhood fondly, and they have many good memories of growing up there.  In 1966, she moved with her beloved husband, Nicholas and her family, to Wayne and she’s lived here ever since.

Edith was a devout Catholic who attended mass every day at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Wayne.  Next to her faith in God was her loved for her family.  Everything seemed to revolve around family for her; she was like the hub of their family wheel.  Of course, her cooking was also responsible for drawing people to her home.  She was an absolutely incredible cook who made everything from scratch.  Her fresh pasta and homemade gnocchi were to die for, as was her pickled eggplant and roasted peppers.  Her ricotta cheesecake was second to none.  Anyone who broke bread in her home knows how she brought joy to everyone she met, and left them with a full stomach as well.

Edith is survived by her two children; Patricia Restaino of Wayne, and James Restaino and his wife Eileen of Wanaque, three grandchildren; Maryssa Geist of Wayne, Jesse and Tyler Restaino of Wanaque, and one sister; Fran LaSala.  She was predeceased by her beloved husband Nicholas in 2013, by her granddaughter; Nicole Geist in 1996, and by her five brothers and a sister.
