Elaine Fay Radhuber, “Lyn”, was born in 1924 in Union City, NJ, in a “cold water flat” as the second daughter of Warren F. and Helen E. Marshall, a career state Republican Party official for over 40 years.
Lyn graduated from Union Hill High School in 1942. She answered the patriotic call of wartime by enrolling in nurse’s training school, Christ Hospital, Jersey City, NJ. She would form many lifetime friends from this experience. She was capped as a Registered Nurse in 1943. In 1945, she married her high school sweetheart, William Radhuber, Jr., who was a graduate of Stevens Institute of Technology and a Navy Ensign. They were divorced in the 1980’s.
Lyn moved from Union City to Wayne, NJ in 1953. After the birth of her children, Keith in 1947, Karen in 1952, and Craig in 1954, she returned to nursing. During this time, she enjoyed ballroom dancing and enrolled in Dale Carnegie public speaking courses.
Lyn was frustrated by the irregular hours of private duty nursing. In the late 1960’s, Lyn applied for and won the newly created position of Director of Utilization at St. Jospeh's Medical Center, Paterson, NJ. She oversaw the administration of the then recently legislated Medicare program and was instrumental in creating many procedures that would be adapted state- and nation-wide. Lyn retired in 1989 after valuable contributions to the growth of St. Joseph’s, and the administration of Medicare.
Lyn moved to Cobb County, Georgia in 1994. She was active in the Cobb County Senior Center, and particularly enjoyed the church services at Due West which were punctuated by elaborately produced spirituals. She moved back to New Jersey in 2008 and resided at the Chelsea in Tinton Falls, where she battled the onset of dementia in her later years. She passed away weeks before her 87th birthday.
Lyn is survived by her three children; Keith Radhuber and his wife Janice of Tinton Falls, Karen Siepe and her husband Kim of Effort, PA , and Craig Radhuber of Union City, NJ, five grandchildren; Keather, Kourtney and Kacey Siepe and Grace and Mary Radhuber, and two great grandchildren.
