Emma Ellicott, age 89 of Wayne, died suddenly on Saturday, February 7, 2009.
She was born in Paterson and lived most of her life in Pompton Plains. She moved to the Sisco Village of Wayne in 1987 and has resided there ever since.
Emma met her husband, George, in the 1930’s on a blind date. That date was just the beginning for them, as they enjoyed fifty four years of marriage together before George passed in 1992. George was a builder and had built many homes throughout the area, especially in Pompton Plains. It seemed as though every time he finished a home he liked it so much that he would move his family into the new house! As a result, Emma and George moved many times but always within Pompton Plains, which is where they raised their children; Arlene and Jack.
Emma was a great dancer and loved to dance with her husband. The most memorable times of her life were spent at the Jersey Shore. She and George rented a different house each summer, along with the kids, staying in Seaside, Beach Haven West, Lavallette, and many other beach towns up and down the shore.
Emma is survived by her two children; Arlene DiRenza and her husband Ron of Pompton Plains, and one son, Jack Ellicott and his wife Lori of Wayne, four grandchildren; Michele Levine and her husband Mitch of Pompton Plains, Christopher DiRenza and his wife Karolee of Ellington, CT, Ryan Ellicott and Adam Ellicott, both of Wayne, as well as three great-grandchildren; Madison and Sydney Levine of Pompton Plains, and Alex DiRenza of Ellington, CT.
