Lucy Martino (nee Pisano) age 96, of Wayne passed away peacefully on Tuesday April 1st, 2014 while receiving the loving care of her family.

Lucy was born and raised in Paterson, NJ. She lived in Paterson until moving to Hawthorne about 60 years ago. At a young age, she was forced to leave school to help care for her family. During the early 1940’s, she met a young man by the name of Edmund Martino. After a short time they were married and spent the next 67 years of cherished marriage together until Edmund’s passing in May of 2009. During that time, Lucy was a devoted homemaker, and she cherished the time she spent raising their three daughters.

Lucy was a wonderful mother and devoted her life to her children. She loved to tell jokes, loved to shop and her family remembers her as being extremely generous. She also loved to hear the phrase “I Love Lucy”. She would ask people what her name was, and they would answer with, “I Love Lucy!” Her family also recalls the Summers they would spend at their house in Upper Greenwood Lake. Lucy was also a member of the Riverside Vets in Paterson, NJ. Lucy was a loving mother and wife and she will be sincerely missed by all who knew her.

Lucy is survived by 3 daughters Maria Delalla and her husband Jules of Wayne, Aleta Corvelli and her husband Rocco, and Donna Martino-Sysyn both of Houston, TX; 2 grandchildren Christian Delalla and Nicolay Sysyn; she was predeceased by her husband Edmund Martino in May, 2009, she was also predeceased by three sisters and five brothers over the years.
