Liliane M. Antaki

Liliane M. Antaki (née Abboud), 81, of Livingston, passed away peacefully on September 19, 2019.

Born in Heliopolis, Egypt, she had fond memories of swimming in the Suez Canal as a young girl. She lived in Cairo, married, then moved to Beirut with her family where she lived for many years before the family immigrated and settled in Livingston in 1982.

Prior to her retirement, Mrs. Antaki was the office manager for Colonial Export in Whippany. A longtime parishioner of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Church in Roseland, she possessed a strong devotion to the Blessed Mother. Above all, she cherished the time spent with her family.

She is survived by her beloved husband of 59 years, Marcel Antaki; devoted sons, Elie Antaki (June), Patrick Antaki (Michelle), Alan Antaki (Suzanne), and Roger Antaki; her loving grandchildren, Nicholas, Kiersten, Natalia, and Maxim; and her dear brothers, Dr. Sami “Jimmy” Abboud, Magdy Abboud, and Rafik Abboud.

Twp. Council Candidates Discuss Business Development

During the period prior the November 5 election, the West Essex Tribune is making space available to each of the Township Council candidates, at no cost, for them to present their views to the public.

In an effort to keep the campaign focused on relevant issues, we have again asked the League of Women Voters of Livingston for assistance in preparing questions, as we have in previous years. It is our hope that this will enable the voters to make a direct comparison, which will assist them in making an informed voting decision.

Article Image Alt Text

Editor’s Note: This week, Livingston Philanthropies Inc. (LPI) founder and director Jeff “the Coat Guy” Friedman explains the organization’s upcoming fur and leather sale to benefit LPI’s work with the homeless.
    •    •    •
By Jeff Friedman
When receiving a thoughtful local donation of warm coats and other items for the “poor, homeless and disenfranchised,” Livingston Philanthropies, Inc. (LPI) was presented with a brand new, men’s leather winter coat. The tag with the hefty price tag was still attached.
The generous Livingston couple who donated it mentioned that perhaps, “LPI’s upcoming fur sale can include men’s and women’s leather, too.” My initial thought was “what a brilliant idea.”

Anita G. Hannoch

The family of Anita G. Hannoch regretfully announces the passing of their dear mother and grandmother on September 16, 2019. Anita was the daughter of the late Faye and William Goldman, sister of the late Barbara Schneiderman.

Anita was born January 9, 1931 in New York City. She grew up in Perth Amboy and moved to Livingston in the 1950s. She graduated from Douglass College (Rutgers University), where she met the love of her life, the late Franklin Hannoch, Jr.

They were married for 65 years and raised their children, James and Nancy, in Livingston. They became Florida residents and loved the time they spent living at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, Florida.

Anita was a member of Mountain Ridge Country Club and the Ocean Reef Club, where she enjoyed playing golf and swimming. She was also an avid mah jongg, canasta, and bridge player.

Nothing made her happier than spending time with her children and grandchildren.
