Passing of Minnie Phoenix, NJRM President’s Mother
Posted by njrm on March 26, 2013
I’m greatly saddened to report the passing of my Mom, Minnie Phoenix who joined my Dad in Heaven this morning (25 March) at 10:15 a.m. Mother lived in Watchung, New Jersey, a town neighbouring North Plainfield where I’m the Borough Clerk. My Dad passed in 2002. Carla and I moved Mother to North Plainfield in 2003. Arrangements will be local and are pending. We anticipate placing her obituary in The Star Ledger and the Courier-News. Your prayers for us will be greatly appreciated. Pictures, here, including both my Mom and Dad, were chosen on purpose as, in life, they were so loving and inseparable. Thanks in advance for your caring and support – Rich Phoenix, NJRM President

Thanks, Lucinda – you’re so right – had a look at your other comments – very interesting – that’s why NJRM is here – so much important NJ radio history is under-covered or outright missing. There are so many important stories to tell and remember!
