Of Wayne on Saturday, August 14, 2010 at Chilton Memorial Hospital in Pompton Plains. His passing was tranquil and peaceful while receiving the l

He was born in Clifton where he lived for many years.  He later moved to Wayne where he has lived for the past 49 years.

His father was born in Prussia and had immigrated to America and Louie was proud of his Slovak heritage.

He received his formal education at Saint Cyril grammar school in Clifton and then at Clifton High School graduating with the class of 1945.

Louie was by nature a hard worker and had a strong entrepreneurial drive.  He established his first delicatessen in East Rutherford, sold that and started a delicatessen in Wayne at the "T" Bowl shopping center which he ran for 30 years until his retirement in 1997.  His very best specialty at his "T" bowl deli was wonderful kielbasi and coleslaw.

He was very dedicated to his Catholic faith and was a parishioner of Saint Cyril RC Church in Clifton and when he moved to Wayne at Our Lady of The Valley RC Church in Wayne.

He was gifted with an extraverted personality that enjoyed being with people and they enjoyed his presence resulting in him having many friends.  He was also graced with a great sense of humor that could see the light side of many a situation.  He would light up a room with his smile and gracious ways.

He was active in the Wayne Elks Lodge 2181.

His loving dedication was to family.  He loved and shared family gatherings  and holidays.   He was a wonderful father and he nurtured children long into adulthood always wanting the best life has to offer for them.

His leisure time was spent bowling, golfing, fishing, riding his horse Sunny and dancing. He league bowled in Clifton and also at the "T" Bowl lanes in Wayne.  Louie was so proficient at bowling high scores that the leagues, he played in, handicapped him to keep his fellow bowlers from getting discouraged.  He had his own boat down the shore and enjoyed fishing.  Perhaps the most fun for him was ballroom dancing and he made the most of it.  Many a night he danced the night away.

Surviving to mourn his passing are three children.  Karen Stevens and her husband Scott of Colts Neck, Robert Pashinsky and his wife Karolina of Marlboro and Nancy Menzie and her husband Jeffrey of Cliffwood; his beloved companion of twenty-four years Patricia Lindberg.  He is also survived by three grandchildren Kelly and Ryan Stevens and Nadine Pashinsky.

Sadness coursed through his life journey when he lost his son Walter Pashinsky in 1958; twin grandchildren Ashley and Kathryn Rubira and his son in law Steven Rubira.

Those planning an expression of sympathy in Louis' memory are asked to consider The Wayne Elks Lodge "Crippled Children's Program", 50 Hinchman Avenue, Wayne, NJ  07470
