Marjorie “Margie” D. Erianne, age 87 of Wayne, died peacefully on Saturday, October 27, 2012.
Marjorie was born in Jersey City on Sunday, October 4, 1925. From her infancy, Marjorie’s father Charles Keane raised her and her older brother Charles, but when she was eight years old, her father passed away and she went to live with her Aunt Margaret, in the Bronx.
As a young woman, her life in New York City afforded Marjorie the opportunity to work at the front desk of the famous New Yorker Hotel in Manhattan. She met a nice young man named Andrew Erianne. So nice was he that they married on September 4, 1948 and soon after, the couple moved back to Jersey City where they welcomed the birth of Dennis, their firstborn son. The family moved again to West Paterson where they embraced the birth of two more children, Donna and Robert. The Erianne’s moved one more time to the town of Wayne where Margie remained to the present. As the years ticked off the calendar, Margie dedicated her energy to the loving care of her family and home. Andrew would win many vacations through his work in the appliance store he owned. As a result, the family travelled to many wonderful destinations including Rome, Japan, Switzerland and Spain.
With the raising of the Dennis, Donna and Robert for the most part complete, Margie returned to the workforce and began a career with Singer Kearfott Corporation, Little Falls in the spare parts receiving department. It would be a place that she would go to every day for the next ten years. She loved those years and she enjoyed the respect of colleagues who appreciated her for the conscientious, thorough effort she gave to her job responsibilities. Many days, she would stay late at work to make sure everything was just right, even though she received no additional compensation for it. “She always said, “If you want something done right, do it yourself.”
Following a corporate takeover at Kearfott in which Margie was laid off, she dedicated herself again to the care of her family, this time, specifically acting as full-time nanny for her grandson Andrew. She assumed this responsibility from the time he was born until he was five years old.
Margie had a charitable heart. She loved donating to those in need and some of her favorite charities included St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, The Smile Train which helps children born with cleft, and various veteran charities. She also loved to follow national politics, spending hours watching coverage on MSNBC.
Surviving are her three children: Dennis of Woodland Park, Donna Hoffman and husband John of Wayne, and Robert and wife Denise of Wayne; three grandchildren: Andrew, Sharon and Suzanne; and her great-granddaughter Ava. Marjorie was predeceased by her beloved husband Andrew in 1991.
