Fred Mecky “Freddy” age 69 of Wayne died Thursday, February 7, 2008 at home. His passing was quiet and peaceful while receiving the loving care of his wife.

He was born in Newark and had lived in Irvington and Union before moving to Wayne forty-two years ago.

Fred received his formal education at Union High School graduating with the Class of 1956. He went on to study Tool and Die skills at Newark College of Engineering in Newark.

He started his work career at Ragen Corporation in North Arlington and then became a Tool maker at Parker Hannifin in Belleville where he worked on government contracts for the aerospace program. He finally retired in 2000 after forty-four years as a Tool and Die maker.

Many of his finest joys in life were experience in the great outdoors where he enjoyed gardening, fishing and hunting to the his hearts content.

Fred and Donna met each other on a blind date and their love for each other blossomed into forty-two years of “happy and loving” marriage together.

His personality was conservative with dry humor prevailing. His wife and family will always remember his loyalty, honesty and hard working ethic.

Surviving are his loving wife Donna (nee McNulty) Mecky; his loving mother-in-law Laura McNulty and many extended family members and friends.

He is also survived by his cherished cat “Andrew” who was often on his lap or beside him.

Those planning an expression of sympathy in Fred’s memory are asked to consider the American Cancer Society, 20 Mercer Street, Hackensack, NJ 07601.
