Nicholas G. Rosania, Sr., passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on Sunday, December 10, 2017 at Newton Medical Center. He was 79 years young.

 

Born and raised in Newark, NJ to the late Salvatore and Helen Rosania, Nick was one of three children. He proudly served our country in the United States Army from 1963 – 1967. For over 50 years, he made a successful career for himself as a Foreman and Truck Driver for Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union (NMDU). He was a member of Faith, Family, & Freedom, AMVETS, and St. Jude Roman Catholic Church. An avid sports fan, he coached Little League Baseball, loved the Yankees, and was a devout Cowboys fan. He also greatly enjoyed watching WWE Wrestling and was a huge John Wayne fan. Nicholas above anything else, was a phenomenal husband, father, brother, and friend. We will forever treasure him in our hearts and souls.
