Patricia “Pat” Marino (Hodgson) age 68 of Wayne died peacefully on Monday, August 20, 2012.

She was born in Cedar Grove and raised in Pompton Plains having graduated from Pequannock High School with the Class of 1962. When she married she lived in Paterson and Lincoln Park before moving to Wayne thirty-six years ago.

She met her husband Douglas Marino while working at Meyer Brothers Department Store in Paterson as they were both working in the administration offices for 90 cents per hour. Their first date was to the movies in Paterson and soon Doug asked Pat to marry him at her parents home. They married on November 7, 1964 at the Italian Methodist Church on 21st Avenue in Paterson. Their reception was held at Lanieve’s Restaurant in Haledon and they honeymooned in Quebec City Canada. Pat and Doug have enjoyed forty-eight years of loving marriage.

After raising her two children Pat worked for the State Farm Insurance Company in Parsippany before retiring in 2007.

She was a very friendly person who would help just about anyone. She loved her children and grandchildren, enjoyed golf and the occasional trip to the slot machines.

She was the loving wife of Douglas Marino; devoted mother of Marcie Romberger and her husband Karl of Berwyn, PA, and Mark Marino of Wayne and his fiancé Sophia; cherished grandmother of Christian, Elise, and Julia Romberger, and Mika Marino.

In lieu of flowers memorial donations to St Jude Children’s Research Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, TN 38105 would be appreciated. Click here to access St. Jude's website:  St Jude Children's Research Hospital
