Evelyn Claire Bocchino age 92 of Montville passed away peacefully on November 20, 2018 while receiving the loving care of her family.

She was born in South River, New Jersey to Peter and Anna Dunn.  The family soon moved to Newark, New Jersey where Evelyn graduated from Eastside High School with the Class of 1944.

Just out of high school she worked for the Ronson Corporation in Newark where she met Anthony Bocchino.  They fell in love and married on October 1, 1950 at Saint Rose of Lima Church in Newark. They enjoyed a loving and devoted marriage of forty-six years before Anthony’s passing in November of 1996.

After leaving the Ronson Corporation she retired from the Philips Corporation, formerly the Westinghouse Corporation, where she worked on a light bulb assembly line for thirty years. For many years she belonged to the Disabled American Veterans Auxiliary.  

Evelyn was dedicated to her Catholic faith and a parishioner of Saint Anthony’s Church in Belleville for over sixty years.  She was most recently a parishioner of St Pius X church in Montville. She was known as Evelyn, Aunt Claire, Aunt Evelyn, loved to tease, and had a dry, wicked sense of humor.

She was predeceased by her husband Anthony Bocchino; and was predeceased by her six loving siblings,  Marie Novak, James Dunn, Rita Kirby, Muriel Black, Peter Dunn, and Ella Murphy; she was dearly loved by many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
