William Slivka age 73 of Wayne died Thursday, March 30, 2006 at Saint Josephs Hospital, Wayne.

He was born and raised in Clifton having moved to Wayne thirty-seven years ago.

Mr. Slivka was an executive chauffeur for Union Camp Corporation, Englewood for eight years having retired in 2001.

He was an Army Veteran of Korea having served as a medic in Alaska.

Mr. Slivka was a member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.

He enjoyed flying, reading, making models with intricate detail and in more recent years he took up gardening. Bill enjoyed tinkering with Balsa wood airplanes and models of all types. One of his most beautiful accomplishments was the completion of a carousel model that took years and even had horses that went up and down. Watching sports on television, especially football and NASCAR events, were also favorite pastimes.

His love of football, which he played in his younger years, is what led him to his fifty-one year marriage to Dolores; they had met on the field after one of his games.

Surviving are his wife of fifty-one years Dolores (nee Ruppert) Slivka; two sons William Slivka, Jr. and his wife Margaret of Boonton and Robert Slivka and his wife Janet of Pompton Lakes; one brother Andrew Slivka and his wife Nancy of Hamburg and three grandchildren Justin, Lauren and Nicole Slivka.
