Marilyn F. Maroon, age 66 of Clifton, died at home on Sunday, July 14, 2013. Her family was gathered at her bedside when she passed.
Born in the Bronx, NY, Marilyn’s family moved to Saddle Brook, NJ when she was just four years old. She graduated from Immaculate Conception High School in Lodi with the class of 1964. Marilyn was class president and a member of the Future Business Leaders of America while in high school.
Marilyn worked nearly thirty four years for Quality Carton, Inc. of New Windsor, NY. She enjoyed much of that time at their Fairfield, NJ and Sloatsburg, NY locations in the customer service department. She loved the people she worked with and was well known among the customers. She had the type of personality that caused others to gravitate to her; always smiling, happy, and an all-around good person. She was a friend to everyone and had a genuine heart of gold.
Marilyn was an excellent cook, an avid reader, enjoyed watching movies on Lifetime, and was especially fond of shopping! Taking a drive to Willowbrook Mall and strolling through Lord & Taylor made her very happy indeed. Years ago she used to be an active bowler and was a member of a few bowling leagues. Along with her sister Carol, they enjoyed many years bowling together. Marilyn also loved to go to the beach, spending many summers with her family at Point Pleasant, NJ and eating crab legs at Jenkinson’s Boardwalk. She even visited Marco Island, Florida a few times with her grandchildren and loved strolling on the beach. To Marilyn, nothing was more precious than her grandchildren. She defined ‘doting’ and spoiled her grandchildren to the point that even Santa Claus was no longer intriguing. She showered them with gifts, but most importantly with boundless love and affection. Her grandchildren love her dearly and will undoubtedly miss her hugs and kisses very much. Marilyn’s greatest gift to them now is the trove of memories they will cherish for many years to come.
Marilyn is survived by her husband of forty six years; John of Clifton, her two children; Jeanine Hassert and her husband Kurt of Wayne, John Maroon and his wife Noelle of Sparta, two grandchildren; John and Keely Hassert of Wayne, her sister; Carol Baratta and her husband Jack of Pompton Plains, one brother; John Power and his wife Debbie of Chicago, nephew; Daniel Baratta of Riverdale and niece; Jennifer Felson and her husband Glenn of Kinnelon. She was predeceased by her father; John Power in 1964 and her mother; Catherine Power-Crawford in 2001.
