Eleanor M. Boehm, 84, of Clifton.

She graduated from the “old” Clifton High School in 1947. She later graduated from Newark Prep Secretarial School.
She got married in 1950.
She was employed by Shulton as a keypunch operator in her twenties. In 1953 she settled down to have her three children.
She later returned to work at Clifton Drapery, followed by her employment at Meat and Chicken Co-op in Paterson, where she was fondly known as the “Chicken Lady”.
She retired after working there for ten years.
Later in life she enjoyed going on cruises with her husband and for ten years enjoyed their time share in Aruba and a trip to Germany.
She also enjoyed trips to Atlantic City to play her slots and vacationing in Wildwood Crest.
She was a member of the Golden Ages of Wayne and the Senior Center in Wayne.
She was also predeceased by her parents Mabel and Arthur Oberg of Wayne in 1968, her brothers Arthur and Donald and her sister Joyce (Markert).
She is survived by her brother Frank. She is also survived by three sons, Dr. Edward W. Boehm and his wife Kim of Franklin Lakes, Brian L. Boehm of Clifton, and David W. Boehm and his wife Krissy of Cranbury. She is also the cherished Grandmother of Deanna, Kerstin, And Katie.
