Paul M. Herzog, age 44 of Wayne, died on Tuesday, October 1, 2013 after a prolonged illness. His sister Cathy had been at his bedside for nearly a month.

Paul grew up in Paterson and lived on Sherwood Avenue in the Hillcrest section. A graduate of Don Bosco Tech with the class of 1986, Paul went on to take classes at William Paterson College. The first sixteen years of his career was with First Fidelity Bank. He later joined the Oak Ridge Care Center in Wayne as a bookkeeper, handling payroll and general accounting.

Paul loved to watch old movies and really enjoyed the classics. He always appreciated quality antique furniture. Many will recall seeing him regularly as he walked around Packanack Lake or the Laurelwood Arboretum; he loved to go for his daily strolls. He was also a very good swimmer and his trips to the Jersey Shore were never complete without taking a dip. Over the years he was taken in by technology and playing with computers was a fascinating hobby for him. He was admittedly a ‘computer geek’ and spent a great deal of time on his computers. He was a good cook too and this skill came in handy when his mother began ailing and Paul took over as her primary caregiver. He could whip up a great casserole and traditional Italian dishes were also among his specialty. He took excellent care of his mother until her death in 2010, a loss he was never quite able to get passed. He had missed his mother dearly and surely they are now reunited once again.

Paul is survived by his sister Cathy Herzog of Clifton and a brother; Harold F. Herzog, Jr. of Passaic, and many cousins. He was predeceased by both of his parents.
