Obituary

Dolores Renna of Palisades Park, NJ passed away at her home on Sunday the 23 rd of December, 2018. She was 90 years old. Known to her family and friends as "Chickie" or "Dee," she will be deeply missed by many. Dolores lived a wonderful life full of celebrations, love and laughter. She was a devoted, generous and loving daughter, wife, sister, aunt, great-aunt, cousin and friend.
Dolores was born in North Bergen, NJ on November 5 th 1928. She spent decades working at the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in New York where she made many friends she remained in touch with following her retirement. A lifelong early riser, she could always be counted on to have a hot pot of coffee ready for the rest of the office.
Dolores had just celebrated her 90 th birthday in November with her family and on that Saturday, she was, as always, the life of the party. She loved spending time with friends and family and looked forward to every opportunity with equal enthusiasm. She always raised her glass to make a toast, and was incredibly kind in sharing her love of food and wine with everyone in her life.
Her husband, William Renna of Palisades Park, and mother, Lena Chiesa of North Bergen, predeceased Dolores. She is survived by her brother and his wife, Joe and Marian Chiesa of New Hope, Pennsylvania; her niece and her husband Meira and Clint of New York, NY; her nephew and his fiancée Ari and Gabrielle of Stockton, New Jersey; and her great-nice and nephews Celestina, Luca and Marcello of New York, NY. Many loving cousins, who will surely miss her this summer at the annual reunion, also survive her as well as an extended list of family and friends who filled her life and heart with joy.
The viewing will take place at A.K. Macagna Funeral Home in Cliffside Park on Thursday, December 27 th from 2-4 P.M. and 6-8 P.M. There will also be a short F uneral P rayer S ervice and E ntombment starting at 10:30 A.M. at Madonna Cemetery and Mausoleum in Fort Lee, NJ, followed by lunch at her favorite restaurant, Villa Amalfi in Cliffside Park, NJ.
