Grace Runz, age 81, an over fifty year resident of Wayne, passed Sunday, October 9, 2016.

She was born and raised in Paterson having graduated from Eastside High School. Grace worked for Markowitz Flowers in Totowa, Brogan Cadillac in Totowa, Hearst Publishing in Parsippany, and most recently Spiral Binding in Totowa before retiring ten years ago.

Grace will be remembered as a caring, loving, giving, fiercely protective mom, who loved gardening. She married the love of her life Donald O Runz on May 9, 1959 and had twenty-nine years of loving marriage before his passing in 1988. They were a loving and devoted couple who were often the life of a party. They enjoyed holidays, card games, and all kinds of parties that would last until the wee hours of the morning with family, friends, and neighbors. Their home was always a comfortable, welcoming place to be.

She was the loving wife of the late Donald O. Runz(1988); devoted mother of Michael Runz of Haledon, and Donald Runz of Wayne; cherished grandmother of Christine Fitzgerald and her husband Shaun and Rebecca Runz all of Vernon; dear sister of Joseph Santucci and his wife Nancy of Hawthorne.
