Obituary for Nancy Cigolini (Sica)
Nancy A. Cigolini, 69, daughter of Joseph H. Sica and Dorothy (nee DeMarco), passed away peacefully at Morristown Medical Center on April 5, 2024.
Born in Rahway, NJ, Nancy was mostly raised in Roselle Park. She was a 1973 graduate of Roselle Park High School and soon after purchased a home in the borough with then husband Thomas Hemenway, with whom she had three children.
Nancy also lived in West Orange, Flanders, Hopatcong and Treasure Island, Fla. with husband David Cigolini.
Early on, Nancy could be seen working at her mother’s restaurant, Aliperti’s, in Clark. Later, she was also a project manager at Lucent Technologies in Mt. Olive.
Nancy is remembered as a “bright light” and a “sweetheart” – a loving mother as well as a devoted friend to many. She was the gracious host of countless parties for family and friends, and she was a lover of the Jersey shore. She will be terribly missed.
Nancy is predeceased by her father. She is survived by her mother, Dorothy Phillips; brother Joseph D. Sica and wife Darlene of Brick; son Chad Hemenway and wife Valerie of Roselle Park; son Jonathan Hemenway and wife Kelly of Parsippany; daughter Jillian Hader and husband Andrew of Boonton Township; and seven grandchildren: Claire, Matthew, Robert, Madelyn, Samuel, Oliver, and Harrison.
A memorial service for Nancy will be held Monday, April 15, 2024 at Mastapeter Funeral Home, 400 Faitoute Ave, Roselle Park, NJ 07204. Visiting hours are 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM. A Mass will be held at Church of the Assumption in Roselle Park on Tuesday, April 16, 2024 at 10am.
