Frederick A. Hennig age 87 of Wayne passed peacefully on Monday, July 21, 2014.

He was born and raised in West New York, NJ having graduated from Holy Family High School in Union City with the Class of 1945. He attended Saint Peters College in Jersey City. Fred lived in Matawan before moving to Wayne forty-three years ago. He lived in the Packanack Lake section of Wayne and more recently the Sisco Village in Wayne.

He was a veteran of the United States Air Force where he served as a meteorologist.

In his younger years Fred worked as a “Dugan Man” delivering bread, cakes, pastries, and potato chips. He later worked as a Singer Sewing Machine salesman. After returning from his service in the US Air Force he worked at the Household Finance Corporation, and the Motor Club of America/Coe Insurance Company for over twenty years before retiring.

Fred was a member of Our Lady of the Valley RC Church, Wayne and a member of the Knights of Columbus Council 10206.

He was a member of the Golden Age Circle of Wayne and a volunteer at Chilton Hospital.

Fred was a funny, understanding, selfless person who loved birds, flowers, classical music, and movies. He was totally devoted to his wife, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. His quiet, intellectual demeanor, garnished with a dry sense of humor, will be missed by all who knew him.

He was the loving husband of Anna (Murphy) Hennig; dear father of Mark W. Hennig and his wife Debra of Wayne, Daria M. Hoffman and her husband Gilbert of Maywood, Kurt F. Hennig of Paramus, David J. Hennig and his wife Michele of Butler, and Diana Biesiada and her husband Keith of Cedar Grove; cherished grandfather of seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren; brother of Wallace Hennig of Secaucus, and the late Steven Hennig (2011).

In lieu of flowers memorial donations to the American Lung Association, 1031 Route 22 West, Suite 203, Bridgewater, NJ 08807 would be appreciated.
