Cimino https://www.nydailynews.com/obituaries/jack-a-cimino/ Thu, 08 Feb 2024 05:00:00 +0000 https://www.nydailynews.com/?post_type=obituary&p=7512015 Jack Cimino, 78, of Hazlet, NJ passed away on February 2, 2024. He was born to his parents Dorothy and Jake Cimino on August 22, 1945 in Brooklyn, NY. Jack was predeceased by his mother, Dorothy, his father, Jake, his mother-in-law Laura, his brother-in-laws Barry and Irwin, and his brother James.
He is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Jacqueline, his beloved sons, Marc and wife Wendy, Michael and wife Courtney, his cherished granddaughters, Sydney, Julia and Meghan, his sister, Dorian, his brother, Thomas and wife Barbara, his sister-in-law Myrna and his beloved nieces and nephews.
Jack and Jacqueline met in high school, fell in love, shared their love for music and travel, and had a wonderful marriage. They began their lifelong journey together raising two remarkable sons, who were the pride of his life. Jack never missed his sons’ soccer and basketball games and traveled all over the state of New Jersey to cheer them on. Although Jack’s roots were in New Jersey, New York City was near and dear to his heart. He made sure to keep up with all things New York sports, politics and current events.
Resilient and eternally optimistic, Jack always found the silver lining and had a smile on his face. His warmth, kindness and zest for life were contagious to anyone lucky enough to have crossed paths with him. Jack worked incredibly hard and anyone that knew him marveled at his work ethic. He relished being able to travel all around the world for his job at Oppenheimer, where he spent 38 years of his long career. More than anything, Jack loved spending time with his wife and family down the Jersey shore and taking long walks along the boardwalk… with his NY Daily News and transistor radio.
To call Jack a good man would be an understatement. He was a great man. The only way to describe him is simply wonderful. He will be terribly missed.

Paulette McLeod https://www.nydailynews.com/obituaries/paulette-mcleod/ Sun, 04 Feb 2024 05:00:00 +0000 https://www.nydailynews.com/?post_type=obituary&p=7499560 Paulette McLeod, née Schauer, 78, of New York City, NY, passed away January 8, 2024 after a years-long struggle with Parkinson’s Disease.

Paulette was born on June 5, 1945, to Gerhard Schauer and Bertha Reider née Sampson, in New York City, NY. Paulette was a deeply loving mother to her sons, Gabriel Gordon and Gideon Gordon, her stepdaughters, Wanda Roy and Diane McLeod, and beloved wife to her husband of over 40 years, William Allan McLeod. They all miss her dearly. Paulette was predeceased by her mother, father, her brother, Andrew Schauer, and her stepdaughter Julie Stewart.

Formerly editor and publisher of Biography Magazine at A&E Network, she was deeply cherished by all who worked with her. She was always energetic, creative, and a passionate lover of the singing arts, especially Opera and Musical Theater. Paulette sang often, with a powerful soprano voice, in opera productions, solo performances, or gathered around the piano to the delight of friends and family, and she gained energy whenever she sang, to the very end.

A memorial is being held Sunday, February 4, 2024. Her family requests donations be given in her memory to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research at https://www.michaeljfox.org/donate.

Orrin Ewart Richards https://www.nydailynews.com/obituaries/orrin-ewart-richards/ Thu, 01 Feb 2024 18:00:00 +0000 https://www.nydailynews.com/?post_type=obituary&p=7489224 Orrin Ewart Richards was born on November 11, 1949 in Georgetown, Guyana to Leslie Richards and Flossie Richards (née Howard). He had three brothers, Lisle, Gordon Lennox (“Lenny”), and Philip, and one sister, Leslyn. After successfully completing his high school studies at Cambridge Academy, a desire to see what the world had to offer to the “troublesome” one in the family led him to go overseas and pursue an education in the United States. He left Guyana in 1968 and studied computer science in New York City. Realizing that his family could not afford his studies and recognizing the benefits of becoming a member of the armed forces, he enlisted in the U.S. Army in January 1975. This was during the Vietnam War era and he irreverently told the recruiter, “I want to die an American Citizen.” He served two tours in Vietnam where he was a combat infantryman. He returned to the Army in 1978 and served for an additional 10 years. He rose in the ranks from Private (earning him the moniker “the Olde Soldier”) to Sergeant while continuing his computer science studies. He was honorably discharged in March of 1988. Over the course of his Army career he was awarded and decorated with the National Defense Service Medal, the Vietnam Service Medal with Three Service Stars, the Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal, the Army Achievement Medal, the Army Commendation Medal, the Good Conduct Medal (Four Awards), the NCO Professional Development Ribbon with Number 1, the Army Service Ribbon, the Expert Marksmanship Badge (Rifle), and the Overseas Service Bar.

He met his wife Sandra while living in Harlem and they had four children – Howard, Tamiko, Shane, and Carlos. He later met Gloria, with whom he had one daughter, Renee. His later years were marked by struggles with PTSD, but he nevertheless continued to give his whole heart to his family. He was always willing to help in times of need, whether babysitting for his young grandnieces and nephews, helping friends and family move, or supporting his brother Lenny in keeping up the household. He found enjoyment in festive occasions, often firing up the grill and having backyard BBQs to celebrate major holidays. He became a hero to his family’s younger generations as several followed in his footsteps and joined the military. Perhaps his most important legacy is that his decision to join the Army allowed his parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, and many extended family members and in-laws to migrate to the United States or become second, third, or fourth generation U.S. citizens or permanent residents.

He was preceded in death by wife Sandra, brother Lisle, sister Leslyn, son Shane, son Carlos, and sister-in-law Patsy.

He is survived by his partner Janet; children, Howard, Tamiko, and Renee; brothers, Lenny and Philip; grandchildren, Stephanie, Sandra, Kathrine, Diana, Reed, Cassandra, Joshua, Ryan; nieces and nephews Brian, Sharol, Shivonne, Joel, Shamelle, Mark, Michelle, Thomas, and Patrick; sisters-in-law Yvette and Wendy; and many beloved great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins, and dear friends.

A Memorial Service will be held at Israel Memorial AME Church in Newark, NJ on Saturday, February 3rd at 10:00am. Interment at Brigadier William Doyle Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Wrightstown, NJ will be on Monday, February 5th at 12:30pm.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be directed in Orrin’s name to the Vietnam Veterans of America or the Vietnam Veteran Memorial Fund.

I see bits and pieces of you in my children and I’m so grateful for that. I wish they could’ve had their Uncle Dan in their lives cause boy they would’ve gotten a kick out of you!! We love you Danny Boy you are forever in our hearts!!

Love your big sis Jeanine
