Stephanie Flak (nee Nenec) age 86 of Wayne passed away peacefully on Tuesday, April 14, 2009 at the Llanfair House Nursing Home in Wayne.

She was born in Czeckoslavakia came to the United States with her family in 1925 settling in Passaic. Stephanie received her formal education at Passaic High School graduating with the Class of 1939.

She met George at a dance and they were soon a couple. They married on May 20th, 1942 and had sixty-eight years of devoted marriage together.

In 1950 George and Stephanie purchased land in Wayne and with their own hands built their home together. The house was finished in 1952 and they then moved here from Passaic.

Stephanie was always on the go and enjoyed hobbies of needle work, gardening of both flowers and vegetables. The garden at the Flak household was unique in that they loved their trees which of course gave off a lot of shade and also loved their garden plants. Everyone knows a flower garden and vegetable garden requires of a lot of sunlight. They solved the problem in a unique way by planting these sun loving plants in containers and moving them to allow them the sun that they needed. George called his solution his “bucket garden”.

George and Stephanie also loved to travel and they had the opportunity of visiting almost all of the states and the Caribbean Islands. They logged two trips to beautiful Hawaii.

Surviving are her loving husband George Flak; one son Thomas Flak of Ohio and nieces and nephews.
