Suzanne I. Hendershott (nee Ehrenzeller), age 71 of Clifton, died on Monday, December 28, 2015. Suzanne had lived in Wayne for many years before moving to Clifton in 1987.
Suzanne was raised in Wood-Ridge and her family also had a home at Rainbow Lake in Parsippany. She spent many summers there and enjoyed it very much. She later graduated from Immaculate Conception High School in 1962 and began a career at the local Dodge dealership as their bookkeeper. She worked her way into the sales department and became a very skilled salesperson. She eventually became the sales manager at Towne Cadillac in Union City, winning numerous awards, vacations, as well as the respect of her peers before retiring in 2007.
She enjoyed a loving marriage to Gordon Hendershott but sadly, Gordon died at an early age and Suzanne found herself widowed at just forty two years old. She moved to Clifton in 1987 and has lived there ever since. She also had a home in Vero Beach, Florida where she would join the other “snowbirds” and winter there with her mother. Suzanne was able to find joy once again when her granddaughters came along. Madison and Samantha breathed new life into her and she found countless ways to spoil the girls! She always bought them gifts and gave it her best effort to always be there for them at birthday parties and special events; she didn’t want to miss a thing! The girls recall Suzanne’s great sense of humor and the silly jokes she always told them. They will treasure those memories for years to come.
Suzanne is survived by her son; Scott Hendershott and his wife Anna of Wayne, by her two granddaughters; Madison and Samantha Hendershott of Wayne, two nieces; Gina Kayal and her husband George of Elmwood Park, Marianne Sportelli of Chester, and one nephew; Kenny Bucaro of Passaic. She was predeceased by her husband Gordon in 1986 and by her sister Marianne Otte.
