DeRose, Helen B. age 92 of Wayne, died peaceful

DeRose, Helen B. age 92 of Wayne, died peacefully on July 27, 2015, a resident of Wayne since 1950.

Daughter of John and Mary Bienkowski, born Nov 7, 1922, Helen grew up in Newark, a graduate of Southside HS. She was so proud of skipping 2 grades in elementary school! She worked in the War Dept. during WWII. After moving to Wayne, she held office manager positions at several engineering firms, the last being – John Zanetakos & Assoc. of Wayne.

Helen is predeceased by her parents and her five siblings: Joseph, John, Stanley, Stephanie and Stella, predeceased by husband, Norman in 1967 and daughter Diane Karas of FL in 2007.

She is survived by her beloved children: Richard of Cedar Grove and Cindy Montanye of FL; grandchildren: Jonathan, Brian, Darlene and Eric: Great-grandchildren Zachary, Rowan and Jada and beloved Cairn Terrier Super-dog Jake.

So much love for her heaven sent caregiver Nadiya who helped her through her courageous battle with Parkinson’s disease.

She was a kind, giving and loving person. Fond of her childhood parish, St Stanislaus in Newark, parishioner of Holy Cross and OLV. A Golden Age Circle member, who loved her friends at Sisco Village, where she resided during her retirement years.

A big time Yankee fan and so much enjoyed cruises, travel to all the Caribbean islands, and trips to Atlantic City casinos – a slot machine expert! Vacations to Loveladies and LBI, marathon walks, volunteer work and Bingo nights! Always looked forward to Wednesday night dinners with her grandson, Jonathan.

Memorial donations would be appreciated to the Parkinson’s Foundation.
