Friends may visit with the family at the Vander May Wayne Colonial Funeral Home, 567 Ratzer Road, Wayne, on Thursday, August 18, 2016 from 4-8 PM. Funeral Services will be held at 10 AM on Friday, August 19, 2016 at the Calvary Temple, Preakness Avenue, Wayne. Mary was a member of Calvary Temple since the late 1970’s and her faith in Jesus Christ was very strong. Her son, Rev. Frank Seminerio will be officiating the funeral service.
Mary C. Seminerio, age 84 of Wayne, died peacefully at home and went home to her Lord and Savior on Sunday, August 14, 2016. She was a resident of Wayne since 1964.
Mary grew up in Garfield and took her first job at Oneida Packaging in Clifton. She was a very hard worker throughout the years and while raising her family she also managed to keep full-time hours as a waitress at the Westmount Country Club, as well as a variety of other part-time waitressing positions. Despite being so busy, she kept their home immaculately clean and had dinner on the table every night. Even her car was spotlessly clean. She was amazing. An incredible cook, Mary’s family recalls her homemade sauce being better than anything they had every eaten, and her pasta dinners every Wednesday were always memorable.
Mary met her husband Frank when the two of them worked at Oneida Packaging in Clifton. They were each selling tickets to a ‘mixer’ at the local dance hall and after some teasing, she agreed to buy a ticket from him, and he bought one from her. They hit it off that night and were married on September 17, 1950. They lived in Paterson for a few years before moving to Wayne in 1964. They enjoyed a loving marriage for twenty six years before Frank’s passing in 1976.
Mary is survived by her three children; Sandie Seminerio of Lincoln Park, Frank and his wife Debbie of Wayne, and Michael and his wife Dawn of Lincoln Park. Mary was the loving and devoted grandmother to her six grandchildren; Jonathan of Wayne, Christy Lafferty and her husband Joel of Plainsboro, NJ, Timothy of Wayne, Jennifer of Little Falls, Kaitlyn of Lafayette, LA, and Allison and her fiancé Vincent Sanfilippo of Ogdensburg, NJ, and two brothers; Tony Cangialosi and his wife Angie of Garfield, and Salvatore Cangialosi of Clifton. She was predeceased by her husband Frank in 1976, and by four of her siblings.
