A. Morano Obituary

A. Robert Morano

Wall Township - A. Robert Morano, 75, of Wall Township passed away Monday, December 11, 2017 at Jersey Shore Medical Center with his devoted family at his side.

Bob was born in Brooklyn, NY and resided in Belmar, Sea Girt and Spring Lake Heights before moving to Wall Township 17 years ago.

He was a graduate of Manhattan College, where he earned a degree in Chemical Engineering. His career started in Buffalo, took him around the world and eventually led to the founding of several businesses. He was a leader in his field and continued as an industry consultant in his retirement.

Bob enjoyed all sports, especially baseball, and a good cognac, but his real joy in life was spending time with his family.

He is survived by his devoted children: Susan Morano of Basking Ridge, Kevin Morano and wife Rebecca of Summit, Karen Morano of New York, NY and Chantal Trainor and husband Jack of Wall Twp., his 5 beloved grandchildren Robert, Kathleen, Michael, and John Morano and Luke Trainor, his longtime companion Joann Quinlan and his sister Joan Lentini.

Visitation will be held on Thursday from 5:00pm to 8:00pm at the O'Brien Funeral Home, 2028 Hwy 35 at New Bedford Rd., Wall. A Mass of Christian Burial will be offered on Friday, December 15, 2017 at 10:30am at St. Catharine's RC Church, 215 Essex Ave., Spring Lake. Please go directly to the Church on Friday as there will not be a procession from the funeral home. Private committal will be at the convenience of the family.

In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer (www.giving.mskcc.org,) P.O. Box 5028, Hagerstown, MD 21741-5028

The Manhattan College alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself ... any mans death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.
