Madalyn Ulino

Madalyn C. Ulino (nee Cioffe), age 86, of Wayne, passed away on Wednesday, June 10, 2020.

Born in Brooklyn, NY, Madalyn lived her life there before moving to New Jersey in 1955, and later building her home in Wayne, where she remained a lifelong resident.

A model student in Brooklyn, Madalyn received many awards through her academic years, including the Susan B. Anthony Award in high school, later attending Brooklyn College.

She worked for Caravan Products Co, Inc. first in Passaic, then Totowa, for a total of 41 years, retiring her position as VP of Finance. Madalyn held this positon at a time when women were not seen equally in the corporate world.  Her family believes she paved the path for more women to be recognized as corporate leaders.

Madalyn's true love was traveling, especially on cruises, to places like Japan, Italy, Alaska, and more. A true New York Yankees fan, she cruised with them, along with her grandson, a memory she treasured greatly. She enjoyed learning new cultures, and experiencing life through others eyes. She also had a passion for reading, where she enjoyed all genres and had an extensive book collection.

Madalyn is survived by her daughter, Dorinda and her husband, Neil Duclos, of Wayne, two grandchildren, Jonathan Duclos and Alyssa Duclos, both of Wayne, her sister Denyse Cacchione of Hawthorne, NJ, her Godson Vincent Cacchione, his wife Magali and their daughter, Alaska of Brooklyn, NY, her niece, Talya Rose Cacchione of Hawthorne, NJ, as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
